8 Updating the Firmware

In order to make sure the CC Debugger works seamlessly with your device, it is important that it has the

latest and greatest firmware. This section describes how you can upgrade the firmware automatically from

SmartRF Studio or manually from the SmartRF Flash Programmer. The section also describes how to

resurrect a seemingly broken debugger.

8.1 Updating the Firmware Automatically in SmartRF Studio

Updating the firmware on the CC Debugger can be done automatically by SmartRF Studio. Follow the

steps described below:

1. Start SmartRF Studio.

2. Disconnect the debugger from any target board and connect it to the PC via the USB cable. The

debugger will appear in the list of connected devices in the lower part of the SmartRF Studio startup

panel (see Figure 12).
