MES and IMP Debug Connection Drivers on Windows 8 | Telit Cinterion IoT Developer Community

Hello,
I'm working on a BGS5T and I have some problems with using MES and IMP Debug Connection.
When putting jar-jad files to A:/ driver via USB connection MES gives connection error. I'm able to get into A:/ driver but when copying files an error message like "***.jar cannot be copied:There is no connection. Please meke sure that module and PC are correctly connected to one another." Previously, I could be able to copy files without a problem.
And also, when I try to start a project via Run As Emulated Java ME Midlet from Eclipse IDE, it cannot start emulation from PC. I was able to run this operation previously.
A few week ago, I faced those problems and uninstalled-installed wtk. Then they worked properly. But sometime later, problem occured again.
I have Windows 8.1 on my PC. Is there a problem of these drivers as to working on Windows 8.1? What do you recommend as solution? To work properly, do I remove Windows 8 and install Windows 7 instead?
Thanks in advance.
Ergün.
Hello,
I am using Win10 + Netbeans.
I run MIDlets manualy and output log to ASC1 without problems. For loading files to module and basic settings I use program that I have developed my self (you can send me email, if you want to know more). I find it to be more relaiable and easier to use then MES.
Try to run program manualy and outpout log to ASC1, it's faster then debugging in IDE, atleast Netbeans.Best regards,

Hello,
Generally Windows 7 is the latest officially supported system but if it was already working on Windows 8 I wouldn't expect that the system version is a problem here. Maybe it's a hardware problem - have you tried another USB cable or maybe you have changed the USB port. How about communication with the module with some terminal program and issuing AT commands - is the connection stable? Maybe you have redirected the system out to USB or has changed the serial interface allocation recently?
Please try to kill the MES process and OJMEE (if started by the debugger), reboot the module and try again.
Finally if the problem still exists you may try to reinstall everything one more time..

Hi Jure,
Thanks for the answer.
Online debugging is useful property. By this way, I can run the program step by step and watch all variables.
Secondly, creating jar-jads and copying them to module is some tiring process during development. To test a simple change in code, I have to do 6 steps operation like below at each time.
1. Create package(jar and jad file)
2. Copy package to A:/
3. Remove preivous jad via at^sjam=3,..
4.Install new jad via at^sjam=0,..
5.Start new application via at^sjam=1,..
6. Prepare terminal program for debugging
I don't have alternative to MES for loading files to module and since Gemalto offers it, it should be used properly.
Do you know any settings or configuration on Windows 8 that makes MES and IMP Debug Connection work properly?
Hello Bartłomiej,
Thanks for the answer.
I changed the usb port of my PC which is connected to BGS5T USB port and then MES worked properly.
Then I connected the previous usb port, it again worked.
Also there was a problem with IMP Debug Connection from Eclipse. It didn't recover. I restarted windows and then IMP Debug Connection also worked.
I think there is some problem with USB Ports managements of Windows and MES and IMP Debug drivers contributes to problem.
I will try these scenarios (change usb port, restart windows, restart module and so on..) when problem occured again.
I couldn't find OJMEE.exe on windows task manager list. When it appears and where to find?
Hello,
OJMEE's icon you can find in the system tray - it is started when you debug or run the application form Eclipse or NetBeans. So in case of problem with debugging you can stop this app, stop debugging and then reboot the module.
When you reboot the module all the USB connections from PC should be stopped. When you change the USB port to which the module is connected you also need to change the port name in MES (if you use USB for MES), if it is the modem port the modem's name may change under Modems in Device Manager - #1, #2 etc. can be added to the name. In such case the debugging may not work.

Hello Bartlomiej,
Thanks. I found OJMEE icon in the system tray. I will stop this app in case of debug error.
About usb port change, you are right. When the usb port changes, usb port names for MES need to be changed. By changing the names, MES works, but IMP Debug cannot be used. Because IMP Debug port name is set during IMP Debug installation and cannot be changed later. It ***** to be re-installed or repaired.
