Customizing ezChronos RFBSL

I want to customize the RFBSL solution.

I've been able to make changes and compile the BSL firmware in IAR workbench 6.4 (found under ...\Texas Instruments\eZ430-Chronos\Software Projects\Chronos Watch\IAR\Wireless Update\)

When I try to open the firmware project (found under ...\Texas Instruments\eZ430-Chronos\Software Projects\RF Access Point\IAR\) for the Access Point I get a "not a valid project file" error with IAR workbench 6.4.

I'm also having trouble figuring out the GUI source (...\Texas Instruments\eZ430-Chronos\Control Center\GUI Sources\) there are tcl files, I can not open the Visual C++ solution, I can open the VC++ project but there are some files missing stopping compilation.

Can someone please point me in the correct direction or provide documentation on how to edit and compile the access point firmware and the GUI source.

  • For those interested, make sure the AP firmware gets opened by the 8051 version of IAR and not the MSP430 version (mine defaulted to MSP430 when opening the workspace.

    The GUI is straight up TCL scipt, used TCL v8.5 to edit it, google it.

    The C++ source is the DLL source of the library needed to interface with the C1111 based AP via USB, you need the MFC and ATL libraries this mean you need the full version Visual Studios C++, manage to find a 90 trail version of VC++ 2008 to make the changes I wanted to.
