Hi All,

One of my project I am using Cypress device (CYPD3175) device. I need to disable the CC-firmware update by disabling the option in the EZ-PD Configuration Utility -> Read from Device -> Device Parameters -> Enable Firmware Update -> change to “NO”. Then File -> Save to Firmware file -> select the firmware file as .cyacd (saved this as final firmware for pre-production).

Concern is if I update this final firmware (firmware update changed to “No”) through Tools -> Firmware update in the EZ-PD Configuration Utility, flash is not updating successfully, instead I am getting the error as “ Firmware/configuration upgrade not completed. Refer to the message window for details.” The messages in the message window is shown below for your reference. After this if I tried to read the device, I can’t able to read the device (it is disabled, but flash is not updated successfully). Will you please help on this. Waiting for your reply. Thanks in advance.

Hi TIJO,

Welcome to Cypress Developer Community!

As per the Configuration Utility log provided, the firmware is successfully updated.

The error you are receiving in the logs is expected since you have disabled the "firmware update feature"

Can you please test and verify whether the device you have programmed is working as expected?
