    Hi,

    it looks like you are trying to place your HEX on a place in the memory where you already write something else. You should change the base address of the HEX. If you want to see there start and end addresses of other files within the JIC you can create the JIC without the HEX and then take a look at the memory map file if you ticked the box to create it. The file ends with .map.

    Cheers,
