Hi Mark,
The 56F805 is a HAWK I device family named DSP.
The Flash Programmer is working for HAWK II family which is named DSPE.
You can use the IDE + Project + Debugger to load the file on your board.
I don't know the tool version you're using but the last version based on Classic IDE was CW for DSC V8.3.
Under the installation folder, have a look to the Targeting_56800cd.pdf manual.
There is a chapter named:
Loading a .elf File without a Project page 195
By default the .elf file is used but you can select the .elf.S file.
Have a great day,
Pascal
