I am using the XAG49 microcontroller. I developed, debugged and tested a small application code using the Tasking compiler and Nohau Emulator. Everything worked fine. Then I decided to take it to next level wherein I tried programming the actual micro. I used FLASH MAGIC software from
esacademy. I was able to successfully communicate with the boot code inside the Philips micro and download my code (hex file). But when I restarted the board nothing happens. The micro seems to be asleep.

I did check the STATUS BYTE and confirmed it to be 0x00, to ensure that the application code gets executed on RESET. Next I did take care to program all the relevant registers that are generally an option on emulator, like BTRH,BTRL,BCR etc. also I had set the BUSW pin low making the data width as 8 bits and disabled the watchdog.

Now when I put back the emulator everything works fine. But when I program the same code into the micro it doesn't work. I guess I am missing something. I am completely baffled with this behaviour.

Any ideas/suggestions???
