LP-MSPM0L1306: TCF not there is frustration!

Part Number: LP-MSPM0L1306
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSCONFIG, CCSTUDIO, MSPM0L1306, MSP430FG6626, MSP430FR2311

Tool/software:

OK, Here it is.

Rev A Launchpad

Theia 20.2

After the board is connected and recognized.\

Used explorer to pull in the TIA example

Modified using the sysconfig - nice thank you ALL!

Build ALL...success - salivation starts about here.

Start Debugging - no Target Configuration File

Are we kidding? Really.  The hard part is done! OMG.

I need help, I tried to consult my AI, but that was duplicitous and it would appear that all was in order from the TI config (already).

I need some salvation.... Please...THANK YOU

  • FYI - I had implemented the File, save as  *.ccxml. 

    Here is a probe log under the ADVANCED configurations of the CCXML session under Code Composer...

    -----[Print the board config pathname(s)]------------------------------------ \testBoard.dat -----[Print the reset-command software log-file]----------------------------- This utility has selected a 100/110/510 class product. This utility will load the adapter 'jioxds110.dll'. The library build date was 'May 23 2025'. The library build time was '13:46:29'. The library package version is '20.2.0.3536'. The library component version is '35.35.0.0'. The controller does not use a programmable FPGA. Updating the XDS110 firmware ... complete. The controller has a version number of '5' (0x00000005). The controller has an insertion length of '0' (0x00000000). This utility will attempt to reset the controller to enter SWD mode. -----[Print the reset-command hardware log-file]----------------------------- This emulator does not create a reset log-file. -----[Perform the SWD Mode Integrity test]----------------------------------- This test will read the IDCODE register 1 time. The IDCODE register value is 0x6ba02477. The SWD Mode Integrity test has succeeded.
  • Hello Roger, 

    Thank you for contacting us. First, for the "TIA" example, can you kindly send me a screenshot of the example you are referring to in the resource explorer? Because if by TIA, you mean transimpedance amplifier, I do not see any record of that for the L1306. Also, can you let me know the version of your SDK on CCS as well? 

    Regards, Jojo

    THANKS!

  • Hello Roger, 

    Thank you for that information. Moreover, I was able to download the project, built it, and I can see my TCF "MSPM0L1306.ccxml" in the targetConfigs folder. Quick question here, before modification of the sysconfig, when you build and all, do you still not see the TCF? Also, it is possible to share the changes done in SysConfig so I can do same and rebuild? 

    Regards, Jojo

  • HI Jojo, 

    Tried to upload the syscfg file.  How to do?

  • Hello Roger, 

    You can click on "Insert" and then "Image/Video/File" and then "Upload" to choose the syscfg file from your specified folder. 

    Regards, Jojo

  • transimpedance_amplifier.zip

    had to click on greyed out Upload first..... file type was not allowed, so i had to diguise..

  • i am also sending what is supposedly the CCXML file....hope it helps.SR_1306_PROTO_CCXML.zip

  • Hello Roger, 

    Thank you for that information. I was able to download and use your sysconfig file instead of the default and everything works perfectly here. I am able to start debugging and have my TCF in the targetConfigs. Find the details of my ccxml file below:

                </platform>
            </connection>
        </configuration>
    </configurations>
    

    Now, I will loop in the CCS team for their input on this. But before I do that, can you answer the below questions to gain more clarity here? 

    1. Did you build and debug initially, prior to changing the contents of the default sysconfig file, and verified if the TCF was created?

    2. Is the same issue seen when you import a different project but still using the L1306 device? 

    3. Have you installed and reinstalled your CCS to check if the issue persists or not? 

    Regards, Jojo

  • THX

    1 - I think the answer is NO. Which is unusual, I was feeling more comfortable with the UI and proceeded, most likely. 

    2 - I will test and get back to You on this one.

    3- no

  • for Item 2 - no, a new compiled project (out of the box), no TCF message..... aggravating.

  • Hello Roger,

    Let me loop in the CCS team for their input on this as this is seeming quite specific here. 

    Regards, Jojo

  • FYI for All, bee using CCS for several processors, notably MSP430FG6626 mostly. New machine from last few months -  over last few months added GIT, Python, and Azure Dev Ops (in case there is conflcts?)  

  • Recently finished a MSP430FR2311 project without issue.

  • Read CCS User Guide, section 7.2, stumbled on something that worked.
