I am trying to flash an application image (..\ti\examples\Presence_and_Motion_Detection\prebuilt_binaries) and I got the error shown below. The serial port I obtained from device manager and the same is configured.

Hi Adarsh,
Error looks like the device is not in correct SOP mode configuration (Flashing mode). Please refer Figure 6-7 of the EVM user guide for proper switch settings for booting the device in flashing mode. Please also make sure that the COM ports are not used by any other application (e.g- tera term).

Thanks and Regards,
Sivaprasad
