The MSP-FET page claims it supports "MSP BootStrapLoader (BSL) interface," however the various documents are very light on the hardware connections. Design examples only show separate JTAG and BSL connectors, not a common JTAG+BSL connector with shared lines. Can someone verify that for MSP430F5342, the connections to the MSP-FET's 14 pin connector for BSL functionality is simply:
| Signal | BSL Function | MSP-FET Pin |
| nRST/NMI/SBWTDIO | Entry Sequence Signal | RST, 11 |
| TEST/SBWTCK | Entry Sequence Signal | Test, 8 |
| TXD (P1.1) | Data Transmit | UART_TXD, 12 |
| RXD (P1.2) | Data Receive | UART_RXD, 14 |
| VCC | Power | 2,4 (switched) |
| VSS | GND | 9 |
