5 Startup and Shutdown

5.1.1 Starting up IS-NITRO-DEBUGGER

To start up the IS-NITRO-DEBUGGER, click the “Start” button, select “All Programs” (under Windows

2000 “Programs”), then “IS-NITRO-DEBUGGER”, and “IS-NITRO-DEBUGGER”.

If more than one IS_NITRO_EMULATOR device was found, make the appropriate selection. Check the

versions of the IS-NITRO-DEBUGGER and the IS-NITRO-EMULATOR firmware.

5.1.2 Selecting an IS-NITRO-EMULATOR

If there is only one usable IS-NITRO-DEBUGGER device found, IS-NITRO-DEBUGGER will start up

immediately. However, should more than one IS-NITRO-EMULATOR device be found, the “Connecting

Hardware Selection” dialog for selecting the IS-NITRO-EMULATOR to be used will be displayed.

The serial numbers of each IS-NITRO-EMULATOR are listed in this dialog. (The serial numbers can be

found on the stickers at the bottom of each IS-NITRO-EMULATOR device. Selecting an IS-NITRO-

EMULATOR to use and clicking on the “OK” button will allow IS-NITRO-DEBUGGER to start up on the

selected IS-NITRO-EMULATOR.

5.1.3 Updating the Firmware

When IS-NITRO-DEBUGGER starts up, the IS-NITRO-DEBUGGER version and the IS-NITRO-

EMULATOR firmware version is checked. If these versions differ, one of the following messages will

appear prompting an operation to make the version numbers the same.

The IS-NITRO-EMULATOR firmware needs to be upgraded. . .

This message appears when the IS-NITRO-EMULATOR firmware version is older than the IS-NITRO-

DEBUGGER version.

Sometimes this message will display when updating IS-NITRO-DEBUGGER. In this case, click the

“Update” button to update the IS-NITRO-EMULATOR firmware.

While firmware is being updated, do not turn OFF the power to the IS-NITRO-EMULATOR, reset the

computer, or perform any operations on the IS-NITRO-EMULATOR or the computer.

If this dialog closes and IS-NITRO-DEBUGGER starts up as normal, the update has succeeded, and IS-

NITRO-DEBUGGER can be used. If IS-NITRO-DEBUGGER does not start up as expected, there is the

possibility that the IS-NITRO-EMULATOR firmware has failed to update. In this case, refer to

"Recovering the Firmware" and attempt to recover the IS-NITRO-EMULATOR firmware.
