Having trouble programming MSP430 Flash

[Barmaley]

Hello,

I was able to compile example code successfully but having trouble flashing image into eval board. 

I tried both MSP430Flasher and Smart RF Flash Programmer, both of those just not able to determine the device( should be MSP430BT5190 )

Here is what I get in cmd:

C:\BTstack\eZ430-RF2560\example>MSP430Flasher.exe -n MSP430BT5190 -w "led_counter.hex" -v -g -z [VCC] -i USB

 # Selected: MSP430BT5190

 # Found:

 # Exit: 16

 # ERROR 1014: Unknown device

 * Powering up...done

 * Disconnecting from device...

 * ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

 * Driver        : closed (Could not reset device)

 * ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

*/

I get similar error using SmartRF interface, see attached picture for details.

But, I was able to successfully program part using demo code from TI/EtherMind in IAR. Also, programming environments are using different versions of firmware for the programmer because every time I switch between IAR and SmartRF (or MSP430Flasher.exe ) it updates programmer firmware.

I was wondering if someone might had a similar problem, any pointers will be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.

Sincerely,

Kirill

Hi Kiril

I've only used mspdebug with the UIF430 JTAG device (on OS X).

For general MSP430 questions/discussion, I can recommend:

 * mspgcc mailing list

 * 43oh website and IRC channel

Matthias,

Thank you very much for such a quick reply. I got it working. Apparently, they just released new version of MSP430Flasher on 07/06/2012 (3 days ago) and it works.

Hope this will be useful info for fellow developers, 

Thanks,

Kirill
