EZ430-F2013 debugger set up in Code composer studio version 4

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F2013

I received recently EZ430-F2013 and downloaded CCS 4.0.

How do you set up the debugger target foe EZ430-F2013.

Can someone give me a step by step instruction?

All material on the web is for older versions of CCS.

when I try to run the debugger all the menus in Target are disabled.

The console says the program is loaded.

I am trying the blinking led program.

Any help is appreciated.

  • Hi there.

    Basically, when CCS is open,  

    1. choose file -> new CCS Project.

    2. Name the project, no references, choose the correct variant (i.e. MSP430F2013)

    3. Add the blinking LED file

    4. click Debug. You should not have to specify spy-bi-wire or 4-wire.

    Follow the basic steps, which are pretty straight forward here: https://community.ti.com/forums/t/65.aspx

     

  • the debugger will be automatically configured and will autodetect your tool (UIF/eZ430/PIF) when you create or import a project.

  • Sorry no luck.

    This is what I get on the console

    MSP430: Program loaded. Code Size - Text: 92 bytes Data: 2 bytes

    All the debugger menus are disabled.

    I am guessing I have not configured the debugger correctly. Your reference article is with CCS 3.0 and all the names and menus are different in CCS 4.0.

    I have also given below the program I tried.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    #include

     

     

    void

     

     

     

    volatile unsigned int  i, a;

    WDTCTL = WDTPW | WDTHOLD;

     

    //Stop Watchdog Timer

     

    P1DIR |= 0x01;

     

    //Configure P1.0 as Output

    P1DIR |= 0x06;

     

     

    while(1){

    //Infinite loop

    i=5000;

     

    //Delay

     

     

    do

    (i--);

     

     

    while

    (i !=0);

     

    P1OUT ^= 0x01;

     

    //Toggle Port P1.0

    a ^= 0x02;

    P2OUT ^= a;

    }

    }

    main (void){

     

     <msp430x20x3.h>

     

  • Sorry. I did not know that you have to open the debug view to enable debugging.

    Everything is working fine.

    Sorry for the trouble.
