Customer Questions & Answers
Which microcontroller and memory families are compatible with the Xprog-M 5.55, and can devices from other brands be programmed?
The Xprog-M 5.55 is compatible with microcontroller families Motorola 68HC05, 68HC08, 68HC11 and 68HC/S12, as well as Texas Instruments TMS370 and TMS374, plus serial EEPROMs such as SGS-Thomson M35080. Support is currently focused on these manufacturers; for devices from other brands, it is recommended to check the libraries and software updates before attempting programming.
What connectors and power requirements does the programmer need to work properly?
The Xprog-M 5.55 uses an RS232 communication interface (compatible with USB to RS232 adapters) for connection to the PC. The unit is usually powered directly from the port, normally at 5 V, but some external adapters may require up to 12 V DC (check the included documentation). It is essential to respect the recommended polarity and voltages to avoid damaging the unit.
What are the physical dimensions of the Xprog-M 5.55 and what accessories are included in the box?
The Xprog-M 5.55 measures approximately 110 mm × 90 mm × 20 mm and weighs around 200 g. The box includes the programmer, a communication cable (RS232 or USB-RS232 adapter), several adapters for PLCC, QFP and 8-pin DIP sockets, and a CD with drivers and software. The exact contents may vary by distributor, so it is advisable to confirm at purchase.
How are the firmware and software updated on the Xprog-M 5.55, and is there any limitation regarding future compatibility?
Firmware updates for the Xprog-M 5.55 are carried out using the built-in update function in the Device Programmer Desktop software. However, updates may depend on the software licence purchased. Please note that compatibility with hardware and new devices is not guaranteed indefinitely, and some updates may not be available for generic versions.
What are the most common user errors and what are the best practices to avoid damage when programming devices with the Xprog-M 5.55?
Common mistakes include connecting the chip the wrong way round, selecting incorrect voltage settings or disconnecting during writing. To avoid problems, always check the orientation and chip type, use the correct adapters, and do not interrupt power or the connection during the process. It is advisable to consult the component datasheet and run a pre-check from the software first.
Which microcontrollers is the Xprog-M 5.55 compatible with?
It is compatible with Motorola 68HC05, 68HC08, 68HC11, 68HC(S)12 microcontrollers and Texas Instruments TMS370/TMS374.
Can I program BMW modules with this programmer?
Yes, the Xprog-M 5.55 allows programming of the BMW EWS3 module via diagnostic line authorisation.
What system requirements do I need to use this programmer?
A PC with an Intel Pentium 60MHz processor or higher, 32 MB RAM, 5 MB free disk space, and a physical COM port or USB to RS232 adapter is required. Compatible with Windows 95/98, NT, ME, 2000 and XP.
Is the Xprog-M 5.55 suitable for all Motorola chips?
No, it is not suitable for certain Motorola chips. For those cases, it is recommended to use Motorola 908, 705 or 912 programmers.
What type of connection does the programmer use?
It uses a high-speed RS232 communication interface compatible with USB to RS232 adapters.
