hi jmgross,
thanks very much for the tips. i don't do windows, but i know people
who do, so the tool recommendation and details are definitely welcome.
i did uncork the ti slau265 support code, which includes something
called the "bsl scripter," written in c (odd name, considering). this
software seems to mimic the behaviour of bsl.py, modulo individual
mcu/board version idiosyncrasies.
i'll build it up and let you know how if works; if it does, i'll port
over its functionality to bsl.py.
stay tuned,
steve

Hi Steve!
I'm using the FET-Pro430 from Elprotronic. They offer a free limited version on their website which allows flashing all kinds of MSPs using either the parallel port or the USB JTAG adapter from TI as well as using the BSL.
It does not support serial JTAG programmers.
The commercial version allows batch programming (so you can make unattended flashing from make by using command line parameters), the free version is for UI usage only. You can, however, specify a config file that
can also contain the name of the binary (along with other settings, including the programmer you want to use, if you have more than one).
Due to a silicon bug, the 54xx takes ages for the blank check, so I skip it and manually call the erase and flash cycle and the RESET after flashing. So it is three clicks (four with close). But it works and is fast and is
free.
And (of course) it is windows only :(
So unless msp430-jtag does the job again...

hi jmgross,
after spending a couple of days tryhing to untangle the ti documentation
on the new bsl format for this mcu (f5438) -- ti is amazingly vague on
this basic subject -- i thought that since you are already using it that
i might ask you what tool you're using to flash it.
could you please provide some guidance? i'm afraid that i'm addicted to
the wonderfully-simple bsl.py.
thanks in advance,
steve ayer
