VisualDSP++ will not connect to ADSP-21364 EZ-KIT Lite

My VisualDSP++ Release 4.0 (Windows 7-64 O/S) will not connect via USB to my ADSP-21364 EZ-KIT Lite -

the orange USB monitor LED does not light.  Although this seems to be a commonly-reported problem with

EZ-KIT Lites, I have not found a solution that helps me specifically.

My ADSP-21364 EZ-KIT is in as-new condition, I am using the supplied USB cable and the computer USB

ports are fine - when I press the RESET button on the Lite, the computer "beeps" and acknowledges that

something has happened.  I do not suspect a hardware problem, as the computer USB ports and the supplied

USB cable are tested and known to be fine.

My VisualDSP++ software would not load under Windows 10 (it was unhappy with the version of Internet

Explorer) which is why I downgraded my PC to Win 7.

What are my options to resolve this, please?

  • Hello Andre,

    Unfortunately we do not support Visual DSP 4.0 either in Windows 7 or windows 10. Also there are no plans to upgrade VDSP++ for windows 10.

    The VisualDSP 4.0 tools are only supported on the following operating systems:

    * Windows 2000
    * Windows XP
    * Windows Vista (only the 32-bit version from VisualDSP++ 4.5 with the November 2006 update 3 - onwards)

    Support for Windows 7 (including x64) was added as of VisualDSP++ 5.0 Update 7.

    For full details can be found in the following FAQ:
    FAQ: Windows 7 Compatibility in VisualDSP++ Development Tools
    ez.analog.com/.../faq-windows-7-compatibility-in-visualdsp-development-tools

    While we have had some customers report success using VisualDSP++ 4.0 using the Windows "Compatibility Mode", this is not something we have tested nor that we support.

    We can only support customers using the aforementioned supported operating systems for VisualDSP++ 4.0. Please let us know if you are facing issue with the supported operating systems.

    This includes the drivers at "<installation path>:\Setup\Emu_Drivers\" required to use the ICE under Windows 7 x64.

    We would always recommend to upgrade to the latest VisualDSP++ version 5.1.2.

    VisualDSP++ 5.1.2 is the last/latest version, that is supported on the following operating systems only:

    Windows XP Professional SP3 (32-bit only)
    Windows Vista Business, Enterprise, or Ultimate SP2 (32-bit only)
    Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise, or Ultimate (32 and 64-bit)
    Windows 8 Pro or Enterprise (32 and 64-bit)

    The latest version for Blackfin/SHARC processors is VisualDSP++ 5.1.2 which can be downloaded from our website here:
    download.analog.com/.../VisualDSP 5.1.2.exe

    Few of our customers are successfully using VisualDSP++ in Windows 10 using Windows "Compatibility Mode". But we are supporting the above mentioned Operating System for latest version of VisualDSP++ 5.1.2
