I want to save what is on my rev 1.5 lanchpad board to a file and if possible reflash that image at a later time.
how would i do that? or better how do i clone what is on board?

Hello James,

The software tools from Elprotronic should help. I am not sure if you can
copy with the TI FET and the Elprotronic tools - but you may be able to.

Take a look on www.elprotronic.com .

The BSL supports extraction of flash memory contents so long as it is
not protected. This will require that you solder or otherwise connect
to the appropriate pins on the F1612.
