bluehash 1,581 Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Thanks! ordered one. I finally have a chronos to play with. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheDirty 33 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Thanks. Ordered a Chronos myself. Only the 433Mhz model works under the promotion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GeekDoc 226 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 The code for the EZ430-2013 works for multiples too! And FREE Shipping! In for two! One destined to be an EZ-Probe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
znanev 7 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Couldn't resist. I put the cronos in my wish list a while back... and now was the perfect time to go ahead and buy it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GeoNomad 8 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I have the watch from the first release, way back when. I seem to recall reading that later versions could be reprogrammed wirelessly without disassembly. Did I dream it? I can't seem to find any reference to that now. And the current TI text confusingly says it "may be disassembled" to reprogram it. Can someone clarify this for me? Thanks, Peter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bluehash 1,581 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php ... 8RF_BSL.29 The Wireless Update feature allows you to change the firmware on the Chronos wirelessly. There will be no need to open the enclosure to upgrade the program in use. Hardware debugging (setting breakpoints, single stepping, etc) is not possible over a BSL because physical access to the JTAG/Spy Bi-Wire is required for in-system programming.All eZ430-Chronos produced after April 2010 will include this feature. The production code is found on the bottom of the box. However, earlier kits have to be manually updated to support the wireless Update. Details on how to do it are in the link.

heywire 0 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Looks like the code for the Chronos kit has been used up . Maybe next time... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GeekDoc 226 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Got my two EZ430 kits already! I'm going to use one of my extra target boards (F2012 chip) to mechanize my Android figure. The small size is perfect, the target board is smaller than the 14-pin DIPs! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
