Hi,
Tools like IAR update the FET tool automatically when they find it does
not contain the firmware they expect. I have found this a nuisance in
some cases, so I made it a separate step in msp430-gdbproxy. You don't
do it often, so its no big deal. You need to run:
msp430-gdbproxy -port=2000 --update-usb-fet msp430 TIUSB
It takes about a minute, and displays its progress as it updates the tool.
The other useful additions for USB FET tool handling are:
msp430-gdbproxy -port=2000 --selftest-usb-fet msp430 TIUSB
and
msp430-gdbproxy -port=2000 --spy-bi-wire msp430 TIUSB
Regards,
Steve
All,
I just installed mspgcc-20060502 and tried to run msp430-gdbproxy. I have a
TI USB MSP-FET430UIF attached. Windows recognized the device. I started
msp430-gdbproxy with the following command:
msp430-gdbproxy -port=2000 msp430 TIUSB
I received the following from msp430-gdbproxy:

debug: MSP430_Initialize()
error: msp430: The FET tool version does not match this program. Update
required.

error: msp430: The FET tool version does not match this program. Update

Could someone tell me the trick of using this device? Do I need to update
my MSP-FET430UIF? Is there a different version of msp430.dll rather than
the one that comes with mspgcc-20060502?
I would really appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance
Kim Mansfield
