IWR1642: Flashing without UART break

Part Number: IWR1642

Hi,

I have few dozen of devices in the field (in locations that can't be reached/serviced) connected to a linux host using a CP2105 uart to usb, now the CP2105 has UART break support only on one port and that port is used for the data port of the IWR1642 and therefore I can't create a UART break on the config port which according to the following document is needed in order to flash the device:

In our lab we managed to switch the ports and successfully flashing it but as I explained this is not possible on the devices in the field.

So my question is: can the IWR1642 be flashed without having the ability to generate a UART break? I can control the SOP2, PWREN, RST lines of the IWR1642 from the linux host.
