Fail in Licensed Compiler / I/O Error On Input File Code:L210

Hi,

Have got this message when I try to build my sample project, blinky.

Well, I have bought a full licensed CA51 V7.0, installed it with an online registration completed, and still I got this message at the bottom.

Any ideas guys?

Regards,
JM

  • Does your path point to an installation of the evaluation tools?

    As you have a licence, you should speak direct to Keil support.
    See the 4th bullet-point on the Terms of Use for this forum:

    Does the licence require the use of a hardware key, or "dongle?"

    BLINKY.C(1): warning C500: MISSING DEVICE (SECURITY KEY NOT FOUND)
    This message indicates that your tools were looking for a "dongle," and didn't find it.

    As always, you need to address this first message first - it is certainly the root of all subsequent problems!

    Did you have the "dongle" fitted?

    Does your Operating System require the installation of a driver for the "dongle?"

    Have you tried the "dongle" test utilities in the downloads are of this site?

  • Hi Andy,

    Thanks for your help. It IS the dongle thingy.

    There is a connector which I thought was an adapter to a different type of connector. NOPE, IT IS A DONGLE!!

    Cheers,
    JM
