CCSTUDIO-MSP: The method of reading out code from MSP430F1232 and format in hex file in CCS

Hi Miao,

BSLDEMO2 is not provided by TI. TI just provide BSL-scripter and BSLDEMO is in it.

Dose customer must use BSL to program and read device？I suggest use JTAG.  It is more convenient to load and read code. 

If customer can use JTAG, they can use FETPro 430 to download or read memory from device. Can they try JTAG ?

If the must use BSL, they can download BSL-scripter form ti.com. In the folder "deprecated" you can find the BSLDOME. It is more similar with BSL-scripter by inputting specific command.

1. uncompress BSLDOME.zip and copy to EXE folder.

2. copy this deme_read.bat to the EXE folder. Open with txt and modify some command parameters before executing it.

used as password (e.g. -pINT_VECT.TXT).
-r{startnum} {lennum} {file}
Read memory from startnum till lennum and write to file as TI.TXT.
(Values in hex format)
-s{num} Change the baudrate; num=0:9600, 1:19200, 2:38400 (e.g. -s2).
-w Wait for <ENTER> before closing serial port.
