I have a CY8CKIT-O42 PSOC 4 Pioneer Kit. I believe the board is in some background mode or programming mode because the status LED is blinking green ~ every half second. When I go to PSoC Programmer 3.27.1 it doesn’t see as connected until I upgrade the firm under the utility tab. PSoC Programmer also tells me in the actions & results window that “Hex file parsing failure. Hex file does not exist or cannot be opened.”
When I update the firm the board appears to work and the LED stops flashing and the board appears in the port selection screen in PSoC Programmer as “KitProg/201A0B1003077400” The device family is selected as “CY8C4xxx” and device as “CY8C4245AXI-483” I ran a checksum in the “PSoC Programmer” and I get the “Hex File parsing Failure. Hexfile Does not exist or cannot be opened” I believe my issue is the with the hex file if so can I just get another hex file and somehow get it loaded onto my PSOC?
Please see the link below which has a screen shot that was taken after I completed the above steps.
P.S. When I unplug the PSOC from my computer after doing the above steps I am back to the initial state where the status LED is flashing.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello!
It sounds to me like you have a corrupted bootloadable image on the kitprog device. The good news is that it is not hard to re-load. It is exhaustively documented in the CY8CKIT-042 PSoC Pioneer Kit Guide (http://www.cypress.com/file/46056/download) in section 6.4.1.2 (Restore PSoC 5LP Factory Program Using Bootloader Host Tool). It should just take a few minutes to get the kit refreshed.
Let us know if this gets you back up and running!
Regards, Mark.
