Hi,
I'm running a PicoMite (ver 5.070814) and when I

> print mm.info(BOOT)
I get "Error : Syntax"

Same with "print mm.info$(BOOT)"

If I "print mm.info(BOOT COUNT)" I get the correct number.

Any suggestions?

Cheers,

Andrew

mm.info(BOOT COUNT) came first

mm.info$(BOOT) didn't appear until a version or two later. V6.00.02 I think.

Update the firmware and you will have mm,info$(BOOT)

Thanks Jim (I suspected so . . .)
Not having touched my Mites for some time I have a lot of updating to do.

How is it down in Tassy today?

Jim et al,
I tried to update to V6.02.01 and got the following on the MCC console:

"
Connected to COM7 at 115200
WebMite MMBasic RP2040 Edition V6.02.01
Copyright 2011-2026 Geoff Graham
Copyright 2016-2026 Peter Mather

[CYW43] Failed to start CYW43
[CYW43] Failed to start CYW43

. . ."

It just keeps scrolling the error message.

I've tried:

- 'UPDATE FIRMWARE'
- Pressing the 'Bootsel' button
- loading an old 'Clear_flash.uf2' and then both of the above.

Any more clues?
I am very rusty so I could be doing any number of things wrong.

Cheers,

Andrew

Now

Perhaps you have loaded the WebMite firmware on a standard RP2040.

V6.02.01 is the latest full release on Geoff's site but the latest release candidate is V6.03.00RC17

Hi Phil,
Thanks for that. The version via your link loaded no worries.
I'm absolutely sure that I had the right version but as you highlighted above I clearly didn't. AND I should have picked up the banner telling me so.

Now to reassemble my project and find the fault in my code that I need the BOOT reason for.

Cheers,

Andrew
