Jtag question

[cerebral]

Hi everyone,

Just read the jtag-ing page and wanted to know if I buy the Jtag from here do I need to use a soldering gun or i can just hold the pins in contact?

Thanks for your help.

Depends on the receiver that you are trying to jtag.

thanks for your reply,

i want to update a 3100 010. Its already updated with some public numbers but I want to use the firmware thats recommended for the atmega usb.

Some 301-010s have a hole in the bottom for jtagging, if yours does, then you prolly can jtag w/o soldering.

dude, seriously, learn how to solder just alittle bit. it will save you HOURS of frustration when you slip with the pogo pin jtag. I have 2 pogo pin jtags I coudl just throw away because soldering them in is MUCH better

thanks skinerd and stockwell. I got the hole in the bottom and it matches the picture in the how to. Thanks for your help :-)

Just hold the pins in place for now and later on solder a JTAG to your 301.010.
