The message "S" often means you have it set to the wrong COM port. Are you using a USB adapter?

There`s somethink strange. When i power up the board with DC adaptor(13V ) it works i thought it too noisy, and then i powered it with the car batery(12.8V) it doesn`t start at all.

So were you able to load the code with the DC adapter?

It`s all voltage problem but it`s so confusing. First with DC adaptor which i used when i run portchek it finds me that I have connected com, next when i power up with the car battery portchek sees nothing connected and i thought that the board don`t work but actualy it was working and i loaded the code succesfully.
Today maybe 4-5 hours i listed the half forum topics for this problem wiht this error and i didn`t find any asnwer to this problem. Olny in one old topic i find this

"had a simliar issue couldn't download firware with the ac adaptor on my stim, used a 12 volt DC source directly and it worked perfectly first time, chased my tail for a couple of hours first."
Maybe the DC adaptor is too noisy and the dougthboard is reseting all the time. So i decide to get the car battery in charge to power up the board and it loaded succesfuly


For thouse who get this error massage ERROR: Unknown error status response, e=0x00 the answer is to power up the board for loading the code with the car battery. For me it worked from the first time, when i used DC adaptor i tried 3 days to loaded with no success.

Any chance you might be grounding out VREF when it's on the car?

No chance at all. I`m still assembling my engine and everything in the car is a mess. So i take the battery at home next to my PC and wire everything.
