hi all, need help

powered up a newly bought OLIMEXINO-STM32

installed the maple IDE and dfu-utils (i've tried both using stock dfu-util from the IDE package and recompiled dfu-util from source (http://dfu-util.sourceforge.net/)

then on the command line run:

> ./dfu-util -l
dfu-util 0.9

-----------
returns nothing - OLIMEXINO-STM32 is not detected as a DFU device

what is wrong?

i've tried "perpetual bootloader" as documented in:
https://www.olimex.com/Products/Duino/STM32/OLIMEXINO-STM32/resources/Olimexino-STM32_Installation.pdf

the device is in slow blinks from the start at power up/boot and after the "perpetual bootloader" steps it is still the same.
and dfu-util -l returns nothing. (there are trouble installing the sketch via the IDE, but i'd guess this symptom is closer to the source of the problem)

Hey,

Each OLIMEXINO-STM32 board is tested and programmed with Maple IDE after assembly. It is quite likely something at your side, since setting MAPLE IDE is not a very straight forward task.

Did you adjust the USB permissions? Did you follow the installation instructions here: http://docs.leaflabs.com/static.leaflabs.com/pub/leaflabs/maple-docs/0.0.12/maple-ide-install.html#linux

Unfortunately, MAPLE IDE is a completely dead project now, and some of the installation instructions might be outdated.

thanks for the quick response! :)
it isn't permissions, i did sudo ./dfu-util -l (i.e. root permissions) and it returns empty as well.
i'd try setting it up in windows with the driver another time.

LubOlimex

Hey,

I meant udev rules. This grants permissions to Maple IDE or other software tools to access the board via the USB port. Maybe check here also:

It could be as simple as -l not working but as this is essentially dead software you probably need to get the code and read it then debug whatever is wrong.

thanks for the replies, i'd guess i'm newbie to the platform i.e. arduino/maple hence there's a learning curve.

had some further progress in linux but still unsuccessful:

the orginal maple documentation seem to suggest that a reset done by the maple IDE - DTR "1eaf" is successful
http://docs.leaflabs.com/static.leaflabs.com/pub/leaflabs/maple-docs/0.0.12/bootloader.html#maple-rev3-rev5-dfu

however, apparently the device remains as a USB serial device rather than being in DFU mode/device after reset. (note that the slow blink of the led is still observable after boot/reset, is this 'slow blink' intended to signal that the device is in DFU mode?

this happens despite attempts with the 'perpetual bootloader mode' (maybe it may be my finger mistakes :P):
http://docs.leaflabs.com/static.leaflabs.com/pub/leaflabs/maple-docs/0.0.12/troubleshooting.html#perpetual-bootloader-mode
https://www.olimex.com/Products/Duino/STM32/OLIMEXINO-STM32/resources/Olimexino-STM32_Installation.pdf

taking a break off this for now, would explore a little further. but it'd seem the last resort would be to re-flash the bootloader (taking it off 'simple' usb sketch install steps)
would need to 'google it' further just in case it is after all related to some hardware problems (e.g. usb3?) on the host.

ordered ARM-USB-TINY-H - probably as hard-core as it gets 
https://www.olimex.com/Products/ARM/JTAG/ARM-USB-TINY-H/

btw a compliment, Olimex has nice complete set of tools to play with STM32 set of boards (many of which made by Olimex as well). I'm newbie to MCUs & *duino / maple, but arm stm32 is an interesting and staggering platform to get into MCUs, accordingly there are more than 1.5billion stm32 devices going round the world & counting

yes i did it! the culprit - my finger errors, thanks for all that help :D

Hit the reset button on your Maple (it's the small button at the bottom left, labeled
RESET). Notice that it blinks quickly 6 times, then blinks slowly a few more times.
Hit reset again, and this time push and hold the other button **during** the 6 fast blinks
(the button is on the top right; it is labeled BUT). You can release it once the slow
blinks start.
Your Maple is now in perpetual bootloader mode.

other finger mistakes may put the device in serial update (serial flash update) mode, the led stops blinking

when the board is in DFU boot loader mode, in linux, it uses device 1eaf:0003 instead of 1eaf:0004
