7.1 Loading and Executing Target Code From a TXT File
Details:
- Device: MSP430F5438A
- Interface: USB
- Password: N/A
- File: file.txt (in the same directory as the executable)
- Erase Type: ERASE_ALL
- Verification: TRUE
- VCC: ON
NOTE
To load a TI .txt or Intel .hex file, make sure that the file to be loaded is in the same directory as the executable or that a valid path is specified.
The command line to use in this case is:
MSP430Flasher -n MSP430F5438A -w file.txt -v -z [VCC] (-i USB) (-e ERASE_ALL)
NOTE
Triggers -p and -l are not used, because the device does not require a password. Triggers -i and -e may be used but are unnecessary, because USB and ERASE_ALL are the default settings for these parameters, respectively.
Figure 1 shows the console output on entering the previous command line into Windows command prompt if the selected device is connected through the specified COM port.
