     1.  The 6811 Downloader does not seem to work with HB.  I get mesaages
varying from recieved 0, wanted 255-or serial port not responding.  I am DL
from a MAC PPC 6500 OS 8.

please download the latest 6811 Downloader for Macintosh, just posted
last week on the HB web site.  Fixes compatibility probs.

2.  This HB when built 2.5 years ago ALWAYS  worked useing DL's from a
Mac11si  OS7.1

As I speak-the LCD of the HB shows Interactive C V2.81 9/28/93 along wi • th the
beating heart-indicative, according to my understanding, that we are ready to
go.

OK, yes, you've already downloaed.


3.  If that is the case-however-I show no libs-hb.lis, hb.c, and hb.icb •  plus
hbtestc.   I HAVE been able-or I should say- HB DowloaderMC will DL these
files if I can trust the green blinking light on the HB serial interface.

please download these files from the HB web site and put them in the
ic-libraries folder.  then use resedit to modify IC to have lib_hb.lis
as its default library file.


4. But-when I then use printer IC console-I show no reference to the so • ftware
referenced in #2.   It will not run any of ther hb.test.c functions.   It wil • l
run other functions from the 2.53 IC library such as bicycle.c

you have to manually load hbtest.c

5.  I am positive it is not running completely but would have to admit • I have
no explanation why it run some software and not others parts-for example
testmotors(),

testmotors() is defined in hbtest.c.  you must specifically get
hbtest.c from teh HB web site, put it in your ic-libraries fiolder,
and then tyope "load hbtest.c" from the IC cmd line.

Would the purchase of IC-commercial help out-something I plan to do but •  am
loath to do until I am sure everything is kosher.  I am suspicious of the
downloading process because sometime  IC2.53  INIT Board works-sometimes it
doesn't.  The lites on the HB respond the way they should-hold stop-turn off-
turn back on with the red and green LEDs on for 1/3 of a sec-then off.  Thank • s
Cappy Anderson


try the new 6811 Downloader, this should fix any init board problems.
