You need the cyacd file for flash
You can find how to create it from the hex file in the boards file

#3

Hi there is no reference to hex in the boards.txt file inside the CubeCell/1.0.0 folder

#4

llook in the platform.txt file:

recipe.objcopy.hex.pattern="{tools.CubeCellelftool.cmd}" "{compiler.path}{compiler.objcopy.cmd}" "{build.path}/{build.project_name}.elf" "{build.path}/{build.project_name}.hex"  "{build.path}/{build.board}_{build.band}_RGB_{build.RGB}.cyacd"

this will make a cyacd file from the hex file.
the cyacd file can be flashed
