Hey,

Try with this hex: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7WHuNCASY8cM0Nyd1g3RklXanc/edit?usp=sharing (https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7WHuNCASY8cM0Nyd1g3RklXanc/edit?usp=sharing). This is the default code of MOD-PULSE.

Best regards,
Lub/OLIMEX

Hi,
But how to remove this error "NO Data loaded in Data section!".
Because i have to make changes in my MODPULSE code.
I am using IAR Embedded Workbench 5.60.4 .
and Which IDE you are using?

Thank You So much.

Hey,

If you use IAR you don't need Olimex MSP430 Programmer. Check the other threads you opened for more information on using TINY-V2 with IAR.

Olimex MSP430 debuggers are officially supported in IAR EW for MSP430.

You can write to IAR support. They provide quite comprehensive support for their software products.

Best regards,

I have the same issue at the moment. I generate a hex file using IAR and wish to use the Olimex programmer to program my MSP430s. I wish to use this method to keep my source code private while supplying a working program for my boards.

Does anyone have a tip to solve this issue?

Thanks in advance.

Thought I might provide an update to help anyone else having the same problem. I simply changed the output in IAR EW to txt (the intel variant iirc), and it seemed to do the trick.

I am not entirely sure why the Olimex programmer did not like my hex files, but using txt solved my issue.

Cheers!
