MSP-Gang programmer

I have a few questions regarding the document SLAU358 MSP-GANG UG.pdf.

  • Where do I get the .cfg file? 
  • Can't I just use a project file?
  • How can devices be programmed with unique data (for example a serial number) ?
  • The examples I have don't really help or show me anything for my development. I am using C# which will call a batch file. The batch file would run the script which would open a project file I created from the programmers GUI. I am assumptions correct? Could you please send me some examples with scripts calling projects etc…? 
     

Regards,

Larry Cutler

    Larry,

    • The config file relates to a MSP-GANG project file. When you create a MSP-GANG project, a config file will be created that contains specific parameters you've selected like which targets to program, memory options, etc...
    • You cannot import a CCS project into the MSP-GANG software. You must select a source file (.txt, .hex, etc) created by CCS when you compile your project. Once you've done that, you can create a MSP-GANG project that will retain all the settings you've selected including the path to the source hex file.
    • As a part of the MSP-GANG programming package, there is a code example that demonstrates this functionality specifically.
    • Attached is a modified version of the "C_ Applications _MSP_DLL" code example (same one referred to above) included in the MSP-GANG software package. This code uses a DOS console interface that allows the user to program individual targets connected to the MSP-GANG programmer. The selected target will be programmed with the image file defined at the top of the code and a unique serial number is programed into information memory A (Info-A).
