It is a pretty simple peace of code but I had a problem deploying it on the board - no error while compiling or deploying, but it stays in "Rebooting..." for a while and then exits the program. Firstly, I thought that my wiring was wrong but after checking it several times nothing seems to be misplaced. In .NET Micro Framework folder in Program Files there is a helpful tool MFDeploy that you can use to diagnose your board. Starting "Reboot and Stop" command resulted in many errors explaining that the assemblies version of GHI NETMF I am trying to use differs from the version board expected.
Here is the thing you need to do if you have the same problem:
- Go to http://tinyclr.com/dl/ and read the BIG RED warning :"Update your firmware.
This is a common mistake made by first time users. If you don't update your device's firmware your program will fail to deploy." - Download the newest version of GHI NETMF SDK and install it.
- One picture is worth a million words .. what about a video. This 8 minute video will show you the right way to update your firmware which is pretty easy: http://youtu.be/a3N0nQRWb08. You can apply this method not only to Fez Mini but with other FEZ boards.
