Chapter 5. Troubleshooting

The table below summarizes errors to be checked carefully before you determine them to be a fault.

5.1 Errors That Occur When Writing to PROM

(1) When Newly Purchased

(2) Previously Written Normally

5.2 MCUs Do Not Function Normally

The program operates normally on the emulator, but when the MCU that has normally been written
is attached the same program does not function normally.

(1) In the emulator, NOPs are often inserted in the area where the program has not been read, therefore

the program happens to appear functioning normally even though it may have gone wild. Check
your program again.

(2) The emulator and the actual MCU may differ in characteristics. Consult the user's manual of the

emulation pod to check for differences in characteristics again.
