    Hi there，

    ​

    What you are encountering now seems to be a config issue. It looks like the previous problem with sof -> pof conversion has been resolved. Unfortunately, the root cause of the failure is still unclear. So I would like to further confirm the following:

    1. Loading the standalone sof file included in the pof works fine, right?
    2. In step 6, the CPF mode is set to Internal Configuration.
    3. Does the Programmer show any specific error messages?
    4. If you reduce the JTAG speed to 6 MHz in the Programmer, does it help to resolve the issue?

    Best regards,

    WZ

    Hello @WZ2 ,

    thank you for your help!

    Reducing the JTAG speed was indeed the last missing puzzle piece.

    Everything is working as expected now.

    Kind regards,
