Working With GUI Flash Tool MCUXpresso

Hai,

I am working with MCUXpresso. I need to flash s19 file with GUI Flash tool. I am getting error like below:

Support me soon. Is there any external Flash Software tool available for MK10 Series controller with PE Micro Debugger?

See Using Eclipse to Program Binary Files to an Embedded Target | MCU on Eclipse : the P&E connection only can program a binary of type ELF/Dwarf. That article describes how you can convert a bin file into an ELF/Dwarf one, but this is not possible for S19.

I hope this helps,

Erich

I am getting same console output for any type of file flashing (.hex , .bin , .axf). Can you share how to use GUI Flash tool for external hex or axf file flash?

With the P&E connection, you only can use .axf files.

See Using Eclipse to Program Binary Files to an Embedded Target | MCU on Eclipse

and especially Overview of MCUXpresso IDE v10.2.0 | MCU on Eclipse (search for section 'GUI Flash Tool extended for P&E and SEGGER').

I hope this helps,

Erich

Hi Karthik,

are you able to debug your board ina the normal way (just use one of the provided example projects in the SDK).

I ask because

PEmicro GDB Launch Failure : The GDB Server was not able to establish a connection to the target processor. Please check your connections and power. Verify that the launch settings in the Debug Configuration are accurate.

indicates that either your board is not powered or not connected at all.

Additionally, your log indicates you are using the V10.2 of the IDE, I recommend that you are installing and trying the V11 (see New NXP MCUXpresso Eclipse IDE v11.0 | MCU on Eclipse ). Because the never version comes with updated and extended drivers/plugins for P&E. You don't have to uninstall your 10.2: simply have the V11 installed into a different folder.

I hope this helps,

Erich

Thanks Erich,

I tried to flash .axf file with flash GUI tool, but nothing is flashed. I didn't change ide version. I check and tell you. Shall I flash axf file of one project into another project via GUI flash tool?

Is there any other way to flash .axf or hex or s19 file to nxp controller by using pe micro debugger??

I recommend that you try this with a 'blinky' project. I would start using the flash programmer for that project, and once verified you can load a different .axf. Make sure you check the log: if it fails you should see an error message or something similar indicating the error.

Hai Erich,

After installing MCUXpresso 11 , I am getting the same error. Refer image below

Hai Erich,

I tried own axf file of same project for GUI Flash Programmer. But No one helps me.

Can you share me best way to flash .axf or .elf or .hex with GUI Flash Programmer.

Is there any flexible document for that?

Re: Working With GUI Flash Tool MCUXpresso

BlackNight — Fri, 02 Aug 2019 15:04:44 GMT

and search then for 'GUI Flash Tool'.

Hey hi Karthik,

are you still facing the same issue?

I was also facing this issue while flashing .axf from MCUXpresso IDE.

I tried through many ways and found the actual problem!

It was because of spacing in the path of the project! (Folder name with spaces)

To check whether you have the same problem or not, just copy your .axf to somewhere else where there is no spacing in the path and flash.

It worked for me!

I am glad this worked. I also had spent a day on this problem!

Looks like a bug in MCUXpresso IDE or in Flash Tool.

I hope NXP will handle this issue asap!
