Reprogramming USB TAP firmware image

At some point you may be required to reprogram the USB TAP probe's firmware image stored in its flash EPROM. Typically this occurs when you are installing an update to existing software, and the release letter specifies a later version of probe core software.

To reprogram the USB TAP firmware image

Make sure the USB TAP probe is connected to a USB Port on your host computer.
Launch CCS and open the CCS command window. The procedure is slightly different on Windows and Linux host machines.
- For Windows, run the command:
  CodeWarrior_Installation\ccs\bin\ccs.exe
  
  This will launch CCS and add a CCS icon (see below figure) to your taskbar. Double-click that icon in the taskbar to open the command window.
- For Linux, run the command:
  CodeWarrior_Installation/ccs/bin/ccs
  
  This will launch CCS and open the command window automatically.

In the CCS Command window, enter the commands:
delete all updateutap [serial_number]

The serial_number parameter is the serial number of your USB TAP probe, which is shown on the bottom of the device. If you have only one USB TAP probe connected to your host machine, you do not need to specify the serial_number parameter. Output similar to the following will be displayed.
