Hi, i am trying to get the HelloWorld program to work on my mbed Microcontroller and i am able to download the program and save it to the mbed but when i press the reset button the mbed does not start blinking.

- the Status LED did flash when saving to the Microcontroller - i am not try and "Open" or "Run" the program files im am simply saving it to the mbed

if you have any ideas on what i am doing wrong please let me know

Thanks

Zane

Hi Zane,

I think your problem is probably you are trying to run a .bin program designed for the "LPC1768" mbed on the "LPC2368" mbed; whilst the source code for each is the same, they get compiled to different binaries to run on the different processors. Now you've said it, I've realised the Handbook doesn't seem to have links to both versions of the Hello World binary, so will fix that.

However, as the source code is the same, if you try building a Hello World with the compiler it'll build for your LPC2368 mbed, and all should work fine!
