X-Prog M

[lawdog1]

I see someone dealing with Motorola/Freescale HC(9)08 MCU's with some diffculty with uncertainess whether the problem caused by the programmer/connection or by the so called 'Security Sequence SS', $XX-$XX-$XX-$XX-$XX-$XX-$XX-$XX

I would personally like to call it as a 'Memory Access Code' instead. If the right reading conditions are allowed the programmer and the HC(9)08 having a successful 'handshake', it does, NO MATTER what the input 'Memory Access Code' was. Read-out data correct or corrupted (e.g. outcome the constant code string like 'AD AD AD AD AD...') is another concern and can only be a direct effect to what the 'Memory Access Code' is input.

I read a lot of the datasheet. I see where it suggests 7246.37 or 3623.19 baud for 4mhz (which is what the board has in circuit). I also see that the timing can be custom programmed into the chip , and if you don't have the same timing when trying to read as is programmed by the owner of the chip, you cannot have a handshake with the chip. This to me means that without auto-baud selection, communication can be very difficult. I do not see any baud support from the Xprog-m. I tried changing the baud rate through the Windows XP registry to 7246 and 3623 with no luck. Like I said, too many variables. Maybe it would have worked if I lifted pins (although I don't know how to lift pins on a PLLC since the solder is under the chip, that is why i removed it the first time). I cannot spend more time trying every combination to make it work.

I did notice that the chip supports MSCAN, so there should be a way to communicate with the chip over the CAN bus Txd RxD pins, but I wouldn't even know where to start.

Hi, m8s
Question about reading EWS3 WITH HC11EA9 2D47J MASK.
It calls for 1-002-0011 adapter. How do I use this?
Do I just push it on the chip in circuit and press read?
I don't have to take it out, do I?
Thanks very much

I haven't done the ews3, but you use the k-line adapter in circuit (it is 1-002-0007, not 1-002-0011). Read the last 2 pages of the manual here: | AUTO SERVICE "TMT" - XPROG-m downloads |

It shows the pins you have to connect, and a screenshot of the reader.

You might want to do a search for other threads before you try it, because I hear the EWS3 has a self destruct feature where it wipes itself clean if you don't do it correctly, leaving you with a useless module. I'd try it on a spare module before trying it on an expensive unit if you can.

Also, hit the connection diagram button when you select EWS3 in the xprogm software and I believe it shows you a picture of how to connect it.

Hello!!
Link hc08 like pincture and read and write without
problems then chip accepts mbus put then 1N4148
between B2 and B3 link to PTA0 then pullup resistor
10k to 5V not necessary.

Regards.....

Has anyone succeed in reading CR16MCS9V in circuit or via k-line??
trying to read airbag ecu but always get error voltage too low

[Dmythross]

i have a small solution for xprogm blue pcb who dosnt writte hco5x,as it was told in this forum vpp1 is the answer,if you can read it just cut adaptor line like in the picture attached ,this work for me,regards.

do you know it is possible to get all autorizations in orginal xprog-m because clones not working very well?

Yes, price about 2000 eu

Or you can buy a china one and change the mcu from the china on your original xprog. You will have a full "original" xprogm

[einet]

and wher can by this?

I allready had china clone but I have problems with motorola and I know they still work on it but I also dont have 2200 euro + tax to buy orginal one. You are 100% sure that will works ?

Hello everyone,

I got a newbie question, is XPROG-M able to read a PIC 18F458
I only found in his menu PIC12C509A and also looked in the connection Diagram but can't understand where does Vcc wires go.

Thank you!
