Hello,
I have setup my development environment in a Windows 8 VM. I am using a CC2650 Simplelink SensorTag in addition to the CC-DEVPACK-DEBUGGER. I am using Code Composer Studio v6.1. I have downloaded the BLE-STACK v2.1 and all of the drivers appear to be correctly installed. I am able to execute Debug sessions reasonably as expected, against the SensorTag project which comes with the BLE Stack. Having built the SensorTag project in CCS and running the debug session* I found the board to not have been flashed as far as I can tell. Using SmartRF Flash Programmer 2 with the generated .hex from CCS results in the board (when disconnected) simply displaying a RED led. Using SmartRF Flash Programmer 2 with the ...BLE_All_v1.2.hex supplied with the BLE Device Monitor results in the device (when disconnected) functioning as it shipped, including advertisements, etc.
This leads me to the following questions:
- Are the sources (when built) given with the BLE Stack equivalent to the stock firmware for CC2650 SensorTag?
- If so, am I following the incorrect procedure(s) by either running a debug session and/or using SmartRF Flash Programmer 2 to flash my .hex file built by CCS?
* It is not clear to me whether or not running a debug session would satisfy 'flashing' the program for when the board is disconnected.
Thank you.
