Hello Forum Members,

I am using CrossStudio for MSP430F1611. Using this IDE alongwith TI
JTAG adapter, I can download the compiled output file (*.hzx) to the uC
flash. I want to download this file (*.hzx) to uC flash without using
CrossStudio IDE. I will use TI JTAG adapter (MSP-FET430PIF) as it is.
Is there any utility to perform this task? Has anyone tried this? Your
earliest help in this regard will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

You can not download "hzx" files to the MCU with software other then
CrossStudio, in your case you will want to select in the code explorer
the "MSP430 Release", select in the project options that you want to
compile a Inter Hex (Just one of the many formats you con choose) file
and recompile your code. This will generate a "hex" file that you can
use externaly. At this point you can use a program like Elprotronic
FET-Pro 430 Lite or similar to program the MCU externaly with you FET.

CrossStudio comes with a command-line utility called CrossLoad that you can use
to download your binary. It is explained in the help files under Utilities
Reference which is under the Command Line Tools heading.

Yes....I used the Elprotronic FET-Pro430 lite. It is a very good
utility for downloading the hex file to MSP430 device flash. It even
works with TI's MSP-FET430 PIF or UIF debugger.

Thanks for your support.
