Sorry, still confused but hopefully a bit more detail will unravel things! I'm using a Texas MSP-FET430UIF USB device, ultimately talking to a 439 via JTAG (although haven't got that far with mspdebug yet). From my understanding, mspdebug will go the USB path unless the -d option is specified, which would make no sense in my case. My first attempt to run mspdebug gave the impression that it successfully found and connected to the FET - what happened subsequent to this I'm not sure, because any attempts to repeat the command (mspdebug -j uif) seems to end up in a search for firmware (I assume the TI3410 it refers to is the FET itself?). Should I need to upgrade firmware on the FET? From my first pass through, I thought I needed V3 firmware, but rereading this a bit more carefully indicates this is only needed if I've gone to the latest MSP430.DLL from Texas. This is not the case. Nothing has changed on this side; all I have been trying to do is migrate from gdbproxy (which was operating yesterday) to mspdebug. I'm currently in the position that neither is now working! I'm a bit lost at present what is/has happened, and what I need to do to proceed.
