Discussions on how to get your MSP JTAG programmer up and running.

hi folks

has anybody any information on how the PRGS430 programmer for the msp430 works. I'm trying to designe a programmer on my own but don't know how you get the data from the rs232 to the msp. of course if the programm fits in the ram (1k max) than no problem, but there must be an other way programming bigger amount of data. What is obvious is the path PC-->rs232-->host msp--> jtag --> target msp.

thanks....
