EVM430-FR6043 ( I get message "configuration update failed")

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: EVM430-FR6043

 I get message "configuration update failed"

When I try to do ‘Request Update’. The update failed message show-up as below picture.

How can I fix it?

  • Hello Lee,

    Could you please provide a little more detail on what your hardware and software setup is?
    - What version of CCS/IAR are you using?
    - Compiler version?
    - Which demo and USS SW Library version?
    - Have you made any modifications to the jumpers or pins of the EVM430-FR6043
    - Have you made any changes to the out-of-box example code?

    Best regards,

    Matt
  •  I want to use  the EVM430-FR6043 for water flow. So I modified the firmware to support  my custom configuration.

    Before modification(gas mode):

    After modification(water mode):

    But after I revised it, I had the following problem:

    The device cannot be identified after modifying  the firmware.

  • Lee,

    Thank you for providing further detail about your application. I am trying to look at the before/after files but the attachment seems to be linked as an image file instead of a document. Could you please provide detail of the changes you made from the default gas configuration?

    I addition I am going to allow an expert in the MSP430 ultrasonic sensing apps team to provide further support in getting your application up and running.

    Best regards,

    Matt
  • Lee,

    Are you rebuilding the code in CCS before loading to the board?  Can you take a picture of what your board jumper configuration looks like?  I would suggest removing JP3 and J31 if you are using this for water. 

  • Hi Matt:
    I want to use the EVM430-FR6043 for water flow? But the default gas configuration does not support it。So I changed the gas configuration to the water configuration. That's what you see the before/after files(by MSPflasher) .

    If I want to use EVM430-FR6043 for water flow , what changes need to be made in software or hardware?
  • Hi Eddie:

    I didn't rebuild the code in CCS . My board jumper configuration  is shown in the following figure:

    In order to use the EVM430-FR6043 for water flow .The hardware changes:

    1.replace R75 and R80 with 1000pF cap, replace R77 and R78 with 200 ohm resistor, and place 0 ohm resistors on R76 and R79.

    2.remove JP3 and J31

    If I want to use EVM430-FR6043 for water flow , what changes need to be made in software or hardware?

    Thanks and look forward to your reply!

  • You could also remove JP4 and JP5, although this is not the cause of your issue.  It sounds like a software issue.  I recommend you build the water code and use that.  As an alternative, I have built the code and attached the binary if you want to try and load this one.  MSP430FR6043EVM_USS_Water_Demo.txt

  • Eddie:
    After downloading this file, it works well.
    Thank you very much!
