Hello,

we are gradually building up support for new and existing devices in Grace. In this release, we focused on the FRAM family.

Any plans to have Grace integrate with IAR EW-430 as well?

I'm not sure I understand your Question correctly.
We will of course continue to have both, the CCS plugin and the standalone version for IAR. Because of our limited resources, we skipped the standalone version for this beta. The next one will be available in both flavors.

Michael

Using the download and installation instructions that are available on the Grace Beta Wiki page, neither of the following will download when trying to install :Grace 2.0 Beta:

Download the Driver Library included in MSP430Ware.
Download the Grace 2.0 Beta installer.

I have received approval e-mails for both downloads, but the webpage cannot be found for neither. Also, the DOWNLOAD dialog button appears for each, but nothing happens when clicking.

Please advise on getting these downloads to work. Thank you.

Hello Fred,

I just tried it out and both links work for me. Can you try it out again with a different browser?

Also, if the problem persists or if you have found a bug in the download system, please contact sw_export_form@list.ti.com. They will be able to help you directly.

Regards,
Michael

Michael;

Did you try it with MS INTERNET EXPLORER 8? If you look at the copy of the approval e-mail I got, it looks somewhat garbled (see attachment), and that may be the problem. Please send me copies of the links that work for you, and I will try them. It is my policy NOT to clutter my workstation with unnecessary SW and browsers.

Thanks and regards, Fred A Rupinski

PS I have already contacted sw_export_form@list.ti.com and gotten no response.

FYI

To follow through, I tried downloading to my laptop (WIN7 SP1, IE9) and was successful.

I then returned to my workstation (WIN PRO XP SP3, IE8) and tried different security settings. The download was successful with reduced settings.

The approval e-mail remains garbled.
