I can no longer connect to the Target CPU

19-Apr-2024

Sometimes it can happen that the Target CPU ends up in a unrecoverable state after the debug session was established and operational. Neither performing Download or CPU Reset command regains winIDEA control over the Target CPU.


Possible solution:

Try to restart the whole setup via Power Off/On cycle. 

Considering the system is powered, perform the power cycle in the following order:

  1. Turn off the target.
  2. Turn off the BlueBox.
  3. Wait a second.
  4. Turn on the BlueBox.
  5. Turn on the target.
  6. Execute CPU Reset command (Debug / Run Control / CPU Reset).
