Debug Hints and TroubIe Shooting

f you have problems try the following
1. The most common problem at this point is the mode
parameter selected in SdConfig. t may not match
the hardware setup of the parallel port on your
computer. Go back to SdConfig and adjust your
settings until your setup will perform and emulator
reset and emulator test.
2. Reset the computer and enter the BOS setup.
Configure the parallel port for ECP, EPP, EPP 1.9 or
bi-directional. ECP or EPP will provided the best
performance. Let the computer boot and return to
SdConfig to test your settings.

printer port. You cannot use the eZdsp version of
CCS with an emulator. Emulator support is only
