    Default Vdip1

    Need help to do reflashing of the VDIP1 module. We tried using flash disk to do so but seems that it has failed. We connected the 5V and GND pins to the signals required. But when we plug in the flash disk, nothing seems to happen. We were wondering, do we need any extra hardware configuration for reflashing VDIP1 module?

    You need to ground one pin before power up.

    If you have all of the power pins connected and pin 10 (CTS) connected to ground the LEDs should blink when ever a memory stick is plugged in.

    If the stick has a file named
    FTRFB.FTD
    in the root directory, the VDIP module will start the flash process from there.

    By the way, do we have to do something to the jumper setting for reflashing the VDIP1? Which mode of jumper should we use?
