MSP432 retrieve programmed hex file

Hi,

I need to retrieve the HEX file from a couple of MSP432 boards. I need to compare them to each other to confirm that data obtained with each board uses the same firmware version. Is there a way to do this via CCs V6?

Thanks,

-Edgar

  • Hi Edgar, 

    You can get a binary file by using CCSv6:

    1. Start by creating an empty project for the MSP432 you are targeting:
    2. Then go to View->Target Configurations
      1. A window will pop up on the right hand side of CCS
      2. Go to Projects->Your_Project_Name->targetConfigs->MSP432P401R.ccxml
      3. Right click that file and select "Launch Selected Configuration"
    3. Then, with the target MSP432 connected to your computer, select the Connect Target button at the top of CCS
    4. Once the target is connected you can then go to Tools -> Save Memory
      1. Browse for the file you want to create
      2. Select the memory range
      3. And click finish

    This should get you pointed in the right direction.

    Best regards,
