Hi,

As recommendation, customer bought C-GANG instead of MSP-GANG.

However, after download, there is check sum error and no progress.

Could you guide for this issue?

Replay on behalf of david.

The “failed” message on line 3 of the log occurs when using the TXT file, as it triggers a checksum error.
The “OK” message on line 15 appears when using the HEX file.

However, even though the HEX file shows “OK,” reading the memory afterward shows all values as 0xFF, meaning the device was actually not programmed at all.
