Panda II: "the debugging target is not in an initialized state; rebooting..."

NETMF & Gadgeteer
1

I’ve a Panda II with network shield and a thermometer in AN3.
If I reference in my VS project the assembly GHIEelectronics.NETMF.Hardware (required to run the Thermometer), every time I try to start debugging I’ve the error "“the debugging target is not in an initialized state; rebooting…” and the VS stops.
If I remove the assembly (and Thermometer code, of course), the project will start.

Any idea?

thanks

-Do you have latest firmware and SDK?
-How do you power the device?
-Show your code.

The board is new, just received yesterday.
ClrInfo.targetFrameworkVersion: 4.1.2821.0
SolutionReleaseInfo.solutionVersion: 4.1.5.1
SolutionReleaseInfo.solutionVendorInfo: GHI Electronics, LLC
SoftwareVersion.BuildDate: Apr 11 2011
SoftwareVersion.CompilerVersion: 410561

Ths SDK is the last one.
I’m powering via USB cable.

The code is really stupid:


using System;
using System.Threading;

using Microsoft.SPOT;
using Microsoft.SPOT.Hardware;

using GHIElectronics.NETMF.FEZ;

namespace FEZ_Panda_II_Application1
{
    public class Program
    {
        public static void Main()
        {
            // Blink board LED

            bool ledState = false;

            OutputPort led = new OutputPort((Cpu.Pin)FEZ_Pin.Digital.LED, ledState);
            
             FEZ_Components.Thermometer myThermometer = new FEZ_Components.Thermometer(FEZ_Pin.AnalogIn.An2);
             int temp = myThermometer.GetTemperatureCelsius();

            while (true)
            {
                // Sleep for 500 milliseconds
                Thread.Sleep(500);

                // toggle LED state
                ledState = !ledState;
                led.Write(ledState);
               
            }
        }

    }
}

Thanks

Welcome to the forum by the way. You need to update the firmware - latest is 4.1.6.0.

Update the firmware ! The latest release is June 30, 2011.

BTW, thank you :slight_smile:
I’m really a newbie…

Now it works (the Thermometer is reporting 10 degree and here we have about 30, but this is an other problem)!

Really thank you for this quick response!
