Download of PCD3 firmware fails on END command (NAK response)
FAQ #100742
If a wrong or invalid firmware is downloaded to a PCD3, the firmware download progress bar reaches 100%. After the download finished, an error message appears indicating a failure caused by a NAK response.
Symptom
After the download of a firmware file the following error message from the Firmware Downloader (FWDnld) appears. The message is "Download failed on END command. Error: NAK response."
§ix100527§
Reason
The reason for this message is a "NAK" (Not Acknowledged) response from the PCD. Before the PCD loads a new firmware, it is verified by the PCD. If this verification fails (because of e.g. a wrong checksum of the firmware of because the firmware is not intended for this CPU type), a NAK response is sent by the PCD to the Firmware Downloader.
Solution
- Make sure the firmware you download is created for the CPU type you have attached (a firmware for e.g. the PCD2.M480 will not run on a PCD3.Mxxx0 system)
- Make sure the file you have downloaded is not corrupted (e.g. while the download from the internet or similar). In case of doubt, re-download it.
