How can I make NoICE reset my target hardware?
If you are using BDM with the 68HC12, or MON08 with the 68HC08, you can use the RESET command to reset your target hardware. However, this command is not yet supported by the NoICE serial protocol. Some people using the serial protocol reset their hardware by connecting one of the RS-232 control lines to their target’s RESET signal. NoICE can control both RTS and DTR using the RTS and DTRcommands. When your PC starts up, it probably sets both of these off (negative voltage). When NoICE opens the serial port, it sets RTS and DTR to the states you specify in the Target Communications dialog. So, using RTS as an example: • Decide whether you want RTS off or RTS on to reset the target, and connect your hardware as appropriate. Since most RS-232 receivers invert, and most processor reset lines are active low, you may find RTS on = reset to be the easiest connection. Depending on what else drives the reset line, you may need a blocking diode or a gate between the RS-232 receiver and the rese
