F5529 LaunchPad with CCS

Maybe you created a new project and selected the wrong processor? Try this:

Right-click on your project's name and select properties, then go to general (if it isn't selected already) and choose the correct controller type. In variant, on the left, you can pre-select a family and on the right you can select the MSP430F5529 (in my case it is the MSP430G2553...but don't care about my settings).

If you have only MSP430 then right click this and select ‘duplicate’, hopefully this is already most right configured. Give it a name in top and under ‘Target configuration’ select the target configuration you have created for this project by pushing the button ‘Workspace…’. After this push on the right down button ‘Apply’, this is something equal to ‘Save’.

Select the tab ‘Program’ and right from the field ‘Program’ push the button ‘Workspace…’ and select the output file of your project. Again push the ‘Apply’ button.

In the left pane double click your just created Debug configuration and NOT on the Debug icon, this should work first.

Sorry, but I'm seeing different things on my editor than what you see.

If its not too much trouble, please load the attached project and *just* attempt to enter debug mode.  You *do not* have to have a Launchpad connected.  

I created a *new* project that clearly specifies the F5529 and copied all the source code files to the folder.  This project **still insists** it wants a FR5969 processor but I cannot find where it has been instructed to do so.  It appears the original developer at TI used the FR5969 LaunchPad to develop this code because it errors out with insufficient RAM when trying to set the partition.

If you would just tell me how to set the project for F5529 I would be good to go.

Thanks,

Don

I have no access to CCS, tomorrow. But I can read the project files and it is created for an F5/6 MCU and not for FRAM.
The problem is you have in your workspace a FRAM project and is last used, CCS doesn’t know your new project and his different target.
I don’t know what you mean with ‘partition’.

A little bit strange is that you get now these errors/warnings. It looks to me that you in the begin didn’t Build and start’s Debug for this project but for your FRAM project but connected to a F5529LP.

Change output format of your project to ‘EABI’.

Comment out the lines with “#define LPM0…LMP4” which generated a warning  in the file: “RF430CL331\driverlib\MSP430F5xx_6xx\deprecated\CCS\ msp430f5xx_6xxgeneric.h”.

Remove the Linker File search path: "${CCS_BASE_ROOT}/msp430/lib/5xx_6xx_FRxx".

The programs flow’s the RAM, you need to decrease the RAM use. One of the biggest consumer is: “Request_Processor.c”, in this file remove the comment in the line “const unsigned char FileTextE104[9000] = {“ and in “Request_Processor.h” add ‘const’ to “extern const unsigned char FileTextE104[];”

Now you can Build and Run your program. For a better solution of your RAM use search the forum or internet or open a new thread for this.

Leo,

After starting with a newly created project correctly setup for the F5529, making all the changes in your last post to convince the compiler I was not used the FR5969, deleting a reference to a math library that the previous developer was using with this code set, correcting the debug interface in the .ccxml file and one or two other things that I cannot think of at the moment I finally have this project working.  All up, this cost me about two days of debug time.  Brutal.

Thanks for all your help -- especially over the weekend!  Much appreciated!
