WP7504 Keeps reseting on mangOH Red but not on mangOH Green

mangOH Red
1

I am trying to use a WP7504 with the Red mangOH board. When I power up the board, the USB ports load on the PC, but after about 5 seconds they disconnect and reconnect after about 5 more seconds. This cycle continues until I remove power. I am seeing all this in Device Manager.

The chip has the latest firmware, as I just loaded it using a Green mangOH board. It works fine with the Green board and the same PC.

I have tried a WP8548 on both the Red and Green boards and it works fine. Is there something different with the Red board that would make the chip continually reset?

Any suggestion or help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Try connecting the console USB port when you are booting the mangOH Red board so that you can observe the boot messages. Paste them into this post if you see anything suspicious.

There is no reason for this issue, so as David said we will need to look at the logs.
we have used WP7504 over mangoh red with no issues

Thanks for your replys. I connected to the console USB port and compared the boot messages of the WP8548 and the WP7504. Everything is similar until it gets to the “Legato start sequence”. The WP7504 is displaying the following

Starting qmuxd…
[ 19.199633] mangoh: created device for board green dv4

[ 19.409552] qup_i2c qup_i2c.0: I2C slave addr:0x3a not connected
Finished Legato start Sequence

After this, the WP7504 tries to handle a multiplexed I2C bus and fails.

I have since loaded the the latest firmware (Release 14) from Sierra using the Windows EXE on the Red board. The boot sequence is still displaying that it was created for the Green board.

Any ideas how to change this?

The 0x3a not connected message is a red herring. Can you show me more logs after this. Specifically you said that the multiplexed i2c bus fails.

Here is the latest boot sequence that I recorded. It continues with an additional couple of pages starting with _UNKNOWN

The module has the mangOH Green SDEF on it. I can tell because it’s creating 8 virtual i2c buses rather than 4 (expected on the red) also it’s loading the lsm6ds3 module for the accelerometer which is on the green and not the red.

If it’s stuck in a loop, you can revert back to the WP team’s release 14 by using swiflash (from linux) or the EXE upgrade file from source.sierrawireless.com under the wp85 or 75 page. Once that’s done, you can build and install the mangOH Red sdef and install that system.
