Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430WARE
Tool/software: Code Composer Studio
I have been working with CCS/ MSP430 for a few years, but I am still a bit of a "newbie"... I recently downloaded CCS 9.3.0 .
Whenever I try to import an example for my board from the MSP430WARE, I get the following: "The package needs to be installed locally to import projects. Use the package context menu or the Package Manager to install the package."
So I go up to MSP430WARE and choose Install from the three dots on the right, which I guess is the 'package context menu'. The Internet cannot tell me where or what the Package Manager is. Can you?
When I choose Install, I see:
I've tried a few different locations. When I click on this, I get:
I *think* I have the Tasks window open to the right there, but when I click OK, nothing appears in the Task or Progress windows.
I did try manually downloading MSP430WARE version 3.80.07.00 . I put it in both c:/ti (where my installation is) and c:/ti/ccs930. And it worked. ONCE. I was able to import a single example. The next time I started the program, no dice.
Now I manually downloaded and installed (using its own executable) MSP430WARE version 3.80.08.1. It is in c:/ti/msp. CCS 9.3.0 seemed to recognize and install it after startup-- but even after TWO restarts, I am having the same issue.
What am I overlooking? I'm going mad here.
I'm running 64 bit Windows 7.
