Chris, 

After you place a jumper on J12 (for boot loader mode) then power cycle the Hermes board, wait a few seconds (or more) before clicking the “Program” button on the HPSDR Bootloader program.  This is necessary to allow the Hermes time to execute some code before loading the new code into the EEPROM.  If you are too quick in clicking the “Program” button the Hermes won’t have time to execute that code.  

After the loading is finished loading the new firmware, remove the bootloader jumper on the Hermes board and power cycle Hermes. 

Just a thought for you to consider. 

73, Joe K5SO
