Problem report

Please use this form if any problem occurs while working with any programmable device and Elnec programmers. Fill out this form completely to provide as much information as is available to help solve your problem. A complete form will be given priority over an incomplete one.

Maybe you think the form is too long and some questions are unnecessary. Look please at the form from different point of view:

• it take no more than 10 minutes to complete this form
• the question are asked to serve also as a simple troubleshooting guide. During the filling out the form you might found the reason of the problem. Typical example is a question: "Do you have installed latest version of control program?"
• if you inform us about the error by one sentence, it is 99% insufficient. The additional questions are necessary to ask, many times in the range of Device problem report form. And of course the solution of the problem will be delayed until we gather all necessary information.
• we are really very sorry, but none of Elnec staff have telepathy capability. Another words, none of us is able to solve or to simulate a problem, without known the circumstances, when and how the problem arise

Fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required.

Problem description

Below description should include step-by-step description of all activities that invokes a problem. Please make your problem description as specific as possible - you can increase speed and chance to resolve a problem. This description should be included either what is known to work correctly, either what is failing. Yours comments and descriptions of expectations are welcomed. It's best, send us device with which the problem occurs - it may happen, we haven't currently available in our laboratory the sample of device/chip, you have a problem with.

Content of "Programmer activity log" window from SW

The problem report MUST include a exact reports of PG4UW program - the FULL content of Log window. The result of selftest plus procedure is necessary, if this procedure report some error. The best way how to provide Log window content is to use next simple procedure: in the Elnec software activate menu Help/Create problem report and confirm creation of the PG4UW_LOG_windows_content_XXXXX.zip file on the Desktop of your PC. Then attach a copy of this file to this problem report using next field.

The file "PG4UW_LOG_windows_content_XXXXX.zip" which is saved on the "Desktop" in this folder:
"C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR_ACCOUNT\Desktop\". Maximum file size, you can send, is 256kB.

Notes:

• If you haven't installed latest version of the control program, you can get it from section Downloads. It is very important to have latest version of software, because:
  • it is possible the problem you have is already solved by software update
  • we don't save older versions of software. If we give you instructions 'please perform next steps...', your software version may not behave in the same way as the latest version of SW, which is always used by us.
