Hello! My last thread was the N. 11275, but I post some other in the past for Mon166 on Infineon 167. I've a problem using Mon166 and I'm not able to solve it. I wrote to Technical support, but no answers at the moment. Is there anybody able to solve my problem?
Reading the first messages in this forum I understand that there are many questions and very little answers. The most of the answers says: - Check the file README.TXT - Check Chapter 11 of "Getting Started and Create Applications" These two documents says obvious things but cannot help to solve any problem. Is Mon166 configuration Top Secret?
Hello!
1st. The monitor is not a secret, as early as it comes as source codes (except the mon.lib which does not mean you can not modify monitor for your target). Try to go through the sources to understand how it is organized.
2nd. It is a bitter truth, but you need carefully go line by line and edit all the configuration parameters in assembler files. To start, you need clearly understand h/w configuration of your MCU bus. I.e. try to answer questions like these: is _BTYP0 should be (?) e.g., 16 Bit Non Multiplexed; is it true I have _WRCFG EQU 1 (check also the WRCFG_ENABLE), etc., step-by-step.
If you can make your questions more precise and e.g. provide kind of schematics for your h/w target configuration, maybe someone will answer you in an objective way...

Hi, after many times I've successfully configured Mon166 to start my debug.
I would like when I've a problem to be able to say the correct question, bat this would mean that I know where is the problem. But I'm not skilled on this environment and the documentation is obscure. What means "Configure the file CONFIG.INC like your Hardware Configuration"?
I checked the first 5000 messages posted to the forum, the most with answers like "Read the documentation" (but if a person ask the forum it means that he has already checked the documentation), and at end a repost suggest to look at MSCB167 monitor configuration as example.
Starting from this example my configuration becomes OK.
If I was most able, I would check previously some examples.
Sorry, if possible I will not send other posts to this forum.
yes i also try not to send posts to this forum.
but i cant stop myself

Well done!

I did read your original thread. We succesfully got the monitor up and running in bootstrap mode. It's not a secret but it's not a trivial issue either.
You're welcome to ask anything (Keil related) on this forum but you can not expect people to invest hours and hours to get your monitor up and running, it's a complex task. You said you contacted Keil support and that's the best way to solve bigger tasks like this.
The monitor comes with examples, if you're able to get them running, you're own application should not be a problem. But then again, I do believe you should have asked the supplier that produced the firmware to release the monitor configuration as well... (why didn't they if they do sell/give you a whole firmware app + source code??)
Kind regards, Joost Leeuwesteijn
