 Hi neha,

   

 

   

The 30 day evaluation license is still provided with PSoC Creator Software.  If you are having trouble registering the license, please file a case.

   

 

   

Thanks,

Hi Srim, Dana!

   

the last cy8c001 i had purchased last yr may had 30 days license, this new one not having from very first day.In case i am using downloaded PSoC Creator 2.0 component pack from internet it shows that the device is not supported( even auto select device not working). So i unstalled it and installed the CD given with the kit.

   

The version of Keil installed is Microvision 3 or 4?

  Hi Neha,

   

You can register your Keil licence using following 2 methods:

   

From Keil MicroVision IDE:

   

1. Go to Uv4.exe (that gets installer along with PSoC Creator) in C:\Program Files\Cypress\PSoC Creator\2.0\PSoC Creator\import\keil\pk51\9.03\UV4\Uv4.exe.

   

2. Click on File->Licence Management. Add your LIC code here and Click on "Add LIC". The licence gets added.

   

By renaming "_TOOLS.INI"

   

1. Rename "_Tools.ini" to "Tools.ini" in the path "C:\Program Files\Cypress\PSoC Creator\2.0\PSoC Creator\import\keil\pk51\9.03"

   

2. Now add your LIC code in PSoC Creator, Help->Register->Keil and click on "Add LIC". The licence gets added.

Hi Neha,

   

Try the above steps suggested by Sashi and I'm sure that will work. As an add-on, you can add edit the _TOOLS.INI file and add the following line with your license code.

   

 

   

LIC0=<Paste your License code here>

 The reason for getting the "device not supported" pop-up is that  several PSoC 3 and PSoC 5 part numbers  are now obsolete and have been removed from the device catalog.  If you are using one of them, I would recommend you to upgrade to the latest with no cost.

   

 

   

Thanks,

Hi Neha,

   

I hope you want to use the free version of Keil. It is installed in "C:\Program Files\Cypress\PSoC Creator\2.0\PSoC Creator\import\keil\pk51" folder. Use the following procedure if you get issue while registering through Creator i.e. Help -> Register -> Keil.

   

1. Edit "C:\Program Files\Cypress\PSoC Creator\2.0\PSoC Creator\import\keil\pk51\9.03\TOOLS.INI"

   

2. Add the LIC obtained through mail after registering on Keil website to this file on the last line. 

   

"LIC0=<License ID Code>"

   

3. Edit "C:\Program Files\Cypress\PSoC Creator\2.0\PSoC Creator\import\keil\pk51\9.03\_TOOLS.INI" and follow the step 2.

   

 

   

If above procedure does not work, then please re-install the Creator and try it. Even after reinstallation, the above procedure does not work then file a case.

Hi Aniruddha!

   

I already did what has been suggested. I filed a case regarding this. The only way to make it work out was to download PSoC creator 2.0  component pack from cypress and uv4 from keil.I registered the license i obtained on e-mail and it was installed on that IDE .now things are fine...but stipulated CD with the kit is still not working!

I completely agree with Srim...CY8C001B is best among all of them.

   

It has modularity in selecting processor module, moreover everything required for fundamental designing of embedded projects

   

is given. Add-ons like cap-sense or wireless Cy-fi can be used once u r familiar with basic working. If u wish to design more ambitiously , there is provision for expansion boards. There is a video 'Introduction to CY8C001 kit' on cypress website

   

kindly follow:http://www.cypress.com/?rID=40547

And (last, not least) when designing for PSoC1 if you've got an ICE-Cube you may connect that directly to the PSoC1 processor module without the need for a pod.

@sachinbvp: Please read the documentation. It is not that far away (http://www.cypress.com/?rID=37464 ). To answer your question: no, it hasn't. The only external components are a LCD, a rheostat and a RS232 level converter.

Can you please be a bit more specific?

   

1. Did you get a new license from Keil?

   

2. Did you enter the code on the same computer you asked to get the license or at a different one?

   

3. What was the exact message when the code was denied?
