MSP430FR2433: BSL Command for resetting processor after programming

Part Number: MSP430FR2433


Team,

When using the BSL for the MSP430FR2433, I understand the SetPC command can be used to have the program execute after programming via I2C BSL. In the user's guide SLAU610, table 6 lists the core commands table that includes SetPC but not a specific reset command. This reset invocation is mentioned in section 4.11.

Is there an unlisted command for this reset, or is the author expecting the user to invoke a PUC or POR via their application code (watchdog timeout, etc)?

Finally, the scripter example shows also the SetPC command. If there is a specific reboot / reset command, is there a scripter example illustrating this?

  • Hi Brandon,

    There is no reset command for the BSL. The reset invocation mentioned in section 4.11 is suggesting to use the RST pin to reset the part. To invoke the BSL on the FR2433, the host must have access to the RST and TCK pins. Therefore, it's assumed the host has access to this pin.

    The other option is to use the SetPC command as you've already mentioned but I think it's easier to use the RST pin. Hope this helps!

    Best regards,

    Guess that this (TI text file ending with BOR) will work just fine...
