I'd like to use Flash Magic to load programs onto my LPCXpresso1769 development board (https://www.embeddedartists.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/LPCXpresso1769_CD_revD.pdf), via ISP.

I purchased a USB to Serial data converter - TTLl-232R-3v3(https://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Documents/DataSheets/Cables/DS_TTL-232R_CABLES.pdf), and wired it up to the board as follows:

1) GND (FTDI Black) goes to J2-1.

2) TXD (FTDI Orange) goes to J2-22.

3) RXD (FTDI Yellow) goes to J2-21.

The board is powered via the USB debugger probe

enter image description here

I enter ISP mode in the typical way, although it appears that the RESET button on the board is actually the ISP button, and vice versa (can anyone confirm this?), so I tried both combinations to make sure I was entering ISP mode.

In Flash Magic, I tried all available COM ports, and a range of baud rates, with the clock set to 12Mhz. I tried to establish a connection by using Read Signature, and on all occasions, a "Failed to transmit or receive", or, "Auto-baud" error was displayed. Is there anything glaringly obvious I'm doing wrong?

I've finally sorted the problem.

It appears that the board needs to be powered externally (i.e. not via the debug probe/usb)
