I'm using MSP430G2553 platform ubuntu 20.04

ls -l /dev/serial/by-id  

then I get

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 7月   1 20:51 usb-Texas_Instruments_MSP_Tools_Driver_721F896E22000100-if00 -> ../../ttyACM0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 7月   1 20:51 usb-Texas_Instruments_MSP_Tools_Driver_721F896E22000100-if02 -> ../../ttyACM1

so I use the command

python msptool.py -f blinky.txt -p /dev/ttyACM0

but it not worked

msptool v0.3

and I tried

it failed,too

Could you tell me how to connect? Thank you

Hey @chenboshuo,

Please share the output of $ lsusb after connecting the USB-UART bridge.

and I tried python msptool.py -f blinky.txt -p /dev/ttyACM1

/dev/ttyACM1 would be something like /dev/ttyUSB0 for the USB to UART bridge.

After getting the correct port follow the connection diagram available in the repository. Check if you have correctly connected the RST and DTR of the USB-UART bridge to the MSP430G2553 MCU.

Please share the output of $ lsusb after connecting the USB-UART bridge. The output is

In the mainstream manual, they use /dev/ttyUSB0, but I don't have it, when I type

ls /dev/tty*

I get

/dev/tty20  /dev/tty34  /dev/tty48  /dev/tty61  /dev/ttyS14     /dev/ttyS28

So I use this command

ls -l /dev/serial/by-id

Hey @chenboshuo, did you get the issue resolved?
