Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC-DEBUGGER, CC2530, CC2540, CC2531

Hi,

Could some one please help me with this error in cc-tool. Trying to program

CC2530 with TI CC-Debugger -- Bus 002 Device 010: ID 0451:16a2 Texas Instruments, Inc.
Ubuntu (Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS \n \l),
Linux kernel (3.2.0-60-generic-pae #91-Ubuntu SMP)
cc-tool -- cc-tool-0.26-src.tgz

Programmer: CC Debugger
Target: CC2530
Error occured: libusb_control_transfer (out) failed, Pipe error

It works perfectly in Windows with TI software. (hardware working / connections right)

Thanks in advance,

Regards,
Milind

I am also receiving the same issue with my opensuse install. I have included the udev rules to allow read write access to the usb device.

I've got the same problem on Ubuntu. Is there any known solution for this?

Hi,

I think there is a bug in cc-tool, though I have not used it myself for a year now.

I found someone who has a fix for it: https://github.com/dashesy/cc-tool/commit/3ebc61763ff5d0dadbdc2f7163e85ca5d002bb0f

It only requires a single change:

- USB_SET_CHIP_INFO, 1, 1, &command[0], command.size());
+ USB_SET_CHIP_INFO, 1, 0, &command[0], command.size());

I was able to update my CC2540 using the tool now on OSX. Before this fix, I was getting the same error

How do you install the cc-tool? When i run automake, Makefile.in is created, what is the next step?

Should be described in Readme.
Could you share github link to cc-tool project?
Another thing, if you are about to use cc2531 with Contiki, think twice, it's a bit problematic.
