Part Number: MSP432P401R

Hi ,

Please help, My customer have problem with bootloader on his MSP4320LaunchPad.

Here is the actions I am doing:

 

  1. connected MSP432 LaunchPad to PC.
  2. Run BSL+Scripter.exe MSP432_uart.txt (see below)
  3. Observe error (see below)

MSP432_uart.txt - 

//
//Script example MSP432 UART BSL
//Device : MSP432P401R
//Comm Bridge: XDS110 - MSP432LP BackChannelUART
// for this setting, the parity need to be
// set from Scripter side
// When MSP-BSL Rocket is used, parity will be
// generated by the Rocket
//
//Download blink application to
//MSP432 device through UART BSL
//

    Hello,

      Maybe the problem has to do with how the BSL was invoked. The MSP432 BSL is invoked by any of the three following approaches. Any one of the conditions is a sufficient condition for BSL entry.

    1. The BSL is called by the bootcode when the application memory is erased. Bootcode reads out addresses 0x0 and 0x4 from the application flash memory and compares it with 0xFFFFFFFF to determine whether or not the application memory is erased.

    2. The BSL is called by application software

    3. The BSL is called by the device bootcode by applying a hardware entry sequence

    For more information on these approaches, please refer to the MSP432P401x Bootloader (BSL) User's Guide - Texas Instruments Section 4.3 BSL Invocation.

    Are you following any of these to invoke the BSL?? If not, please make to meet any of these conditions before running your actions listed above.

    Probably the easiest to accomplish is #1. You can do this with the factory reset, the factory reset will erase the device flash, therefore the BSL will be invoked.

      Hopefully this helps.

    Hi there,

    I just retested the MSP432 Launchpad Rev B and Rev C on my Win 10 machine, and it is working. What I could suggest you to do is the following:

    1. make sure your device is empty. if you are using CCS, you can connect to the debug core, and then run the MSP432_Factory_Reset script.
    2. BSL on MSP432 has the timeout of 10 seconds, so reset the device before you start the BSL


    Let me know if this is still not working on your side.

    ReadBlock_MSP432P401R.TXTHi ,

    I tried it again. It worked one time exactly with TI’s script example. Please see the log files.

    But now I could not re-program the evaluation board.

    It is blinking with the RED LED1 forever.

    And scripts not working again.

    What could you suggest?

    Hi

    I tried it again. It worked one time exactly with TI’s script example. Please see the log files.

    But now I could not re-program the evaluation board.

    It is blinking with the RED LED1 forever.

    And scripts not working again.

    What could you suggest?

    I would recommend trying a factory reset.
