Hi Rawi,

When you load and run the default wlan_ap example from the SDK, can you share your steps?

Keep in mind, if you are loading an example using the debugger (like with Code Composer Studio), the image will not be retained on reset (resetting the board or unplugging it). To retain in the image, you will have to flash it using a tool like UniFlash v3.4.1.

Best regards,

Sarah

Hi Sarah P,

I followed the steps in "CC3200 SimpleLink Wi-Fi and IoT Solution With
MCU LaunchPad Getting Started Guide",

I have tried to flash the image using uniflash but I could not do it, do you have some tips on how to use Uniflash?

/Rawi

Hi Rawi,

Are you printing out logs to the terminal? Is the CC3200 AP network visible on your phone or other device?

See the CC3100, CC3200 UniFlash User's Guide. You must use UniFlash version 3.4.1 with CC3200 devices. The most recent version of UniFlash will not work with CC3200.

Best regards,

Sarah

Hi,

I am, all is good but the code is waiting a client to connect to CC3200, which is the problem. 

It is good to know that newer Uniflash versions dose not support CC3200.

Best regards,

I tried to go through this Out of box example "https://software-dl.ti.com/ecs/CC3200SDK/1_5_0/exports/cc3200-sdk/example/out_of_box/README.html", i load the out_of_box.usf to Uniflash, but I got an error when trying to verify or program "Encountered a problem loading file: C:\ti\CC3200SDK_1.5.0\cc3200-sdk\example\out_of_box\html\out_of_box.usf
Could not determine target type of file".

Any idea?

Thank you,

Rawi

Hi Rawi,

Can you attach a screenshot of when this UniFlash error occurs?

Best regards,

Sarah

Hi Sarah,

Hi Rawi,

You are trying to load the program over the debug interface, which is not correct. You need to choose the CC3x serial UART interface in order to flash the CC3200. Also be sure your SOP pins are set to 100. See the UniFlash guide I linked to above.

To load a .usf file, choose "open target configuration" instead of new.

Best regards,

Sarah

Hi Sarah P,

Thank you for the clarification!

I did read the Uniflash guide but not too much to pick from there.

I did as you suggested and i am getting an error( kindly see image attached):

Now, my concern is how to reset the chip to the "factory default" mode, is there any way to do it?

Best regards,

Rawi

Hi Sarah,

I am able to connect to my CC3200 now, thank you for your help!

Best regards,
