Hi,

I try to use the python-msp430-tools (version 0.9.2) to upgrade MSP430F5234's image, but meet some fail.

the tool link as below:

type command:

python -m msp430.bsl5.uart -p /dev/ttyUSB0 -eErw F5234.txt

I correct the python script's checksum algorithm.

so the script can go to the Mass Erase, but looks like fail at Firmware Load, see below:

any suggestion for this?

Thanks.

Hey Jimmy,

The Python BSL module is an opensource community project. Unfortunately, I don't have any experience with it and can't really help.

I'll leave this thread up in case anyone in the community here is familiar with the project.

Thanks,

Hello JD,

Thanks for your reply.

Dose TI have development source/sample code for F5234 fw upgrade by UART?

Thanks.

Hey Jimmy,

To update the F5234 via UART, you would have to use a BSL. All the information on BSLs can be found at this page: MSPBSL.

Thanks,
