CCS/RF430FRL152H: programming the 152H with a pre-built binary, using msp-fet

Part Number: RF430FRL152H
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP-FET, UNIFLASH

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I've successfully built an application based heavily on the sensor hub project.  Can program our custom 152h-based board using CCS to build the app, then program it using a MSP-FET.  We're now ready for production, which requires two variants of the application.  I've saved the two *.out files for manufacturing.

My question is whether CCS can be used in a manufacturing environment, where they don't want to build the apps, but rather just load the *.out files then program the part.

I've been searching for how I can use the binaries.  I can launch CCS, build my project, program the part, load the binary, program again.  The result is a non-working application.

Looking for a suggestion on how to load & program the *.out binaries, either in CCS or another stand-alone application.

Thank you for reading this post!

    Two options come to mind. The first requires a CCS installation while the other does not.

    The first one is to use loadti. It is a command-line utility, available with CCS, that you can run to load/flash you program:

    the second (more popular) option is to use UniFlash. It is a standalone tool designed with production environments in mind. There are GUI and scripting interfaces for it.
