Firmware Update Error

$

HI,

 

I have a MSP430fr5969 Board. I have written several program successfully to the board with Energia and have V2.0 or higher.

 

On a random upload, I received an error message "FET firmware update is required", "Re-run with --allow-fw-update to preform a firmware update.", tilib: device initialization failed." 

 

A separate window also appears saying: "The firmware of your launchpad programmer needs an update. You will need to update......"tools" menu."

 

When I use the Update Programmer button from the "Tools" tab, it fails to update the programmer on some occasions. On others it is successful and flashes the green and red LED after completion. 

 

After a successful update the upload of a program to the board still fails. 

 

Any Ideas.?

 

This problem originated when trying to run a "Servo Sweep" example, but now occurs even with a simple "Blink LED."
