Field programming using some utility

[sudhanshumehta]

Hello Everyone,

We use P&E micro multilink universal FX debugger/programmers for NXP kinetis microcontroller. 

If we want to update firmware in field, is there is any utility which we can give to our field technicians to reprogram updated firmware? We are using K22 and K70 controllers.

Currently I see option in KDS IDE etc. but I am looking for some easy utility for field technicians.. any help will be great..

Thanks

I never used this but there is an official tool from the debugger manufacturer:

also, there is a similar thread where you can get more info:

Worst case scenario, your technicians will have to learn programming from the IDE which isn't a deal breaker if they can use the other tools.

Hello, @dacapn 

I am looking for a tool that can easily update the firmware as above.

I use P&E micro multilink universal debugger/programmers for NXP

i'm using i.MXRT1176 chip

Currently I see option in MCUXPressoIDE . 

I tried using the PROGDSC(Flash Programmer) tool, but it doesn't seem to work, so I am inquiring

Thanks
