i did not need a burner cuz i can make my own through USB interface

but the problem is that the CCS does not run without kit board

To get a HEX file, you'l have to select it as primary or additional output format. Default is .elf or COFF (depending on CCS version).

First of all , thx jens for ur reply , second , im using CCS V5 , i have 3 questions now , 1-How can i generate the Hex file in this version (cuz the output file seems to be relatively large file for the Blinking LED demo example , so i guess its not what i want)? 2-I have made my own programmer before for PICs and Atmel Chips , since the ones i had , did not support the Advanced versions of these MCU , so the qs is is it really Diff for the MSP ? 3-if its really complicated , What Programmers do u recommend then , so i can order it online? Sorry bro , i know they r alot of qs , but i really need answers , appreciated if u can not answer though.

You can debug your codes without any board as in the link below. This is simulator mode for debugging.

its not possible for MSP430 Family.

Thx Burak , it really helped , but i do not think it would work for the MSP4xx family , i would order online board any way.

Yes i know it does not work for MSPxx family but i just wanted to show a way to debug without a board. I think you should order a board for your developments.

thx again Burak , would u recommend a Board for me ? (inexpensive one lol)

what project wiill you develop? u should choose your board for your apps. I am using MSP430FR5739 it is 29$ for example this board is spesific for WiFi apps.

thx again Burak for ur reply . We are working on Auto-Pilot project (similar to Quad copter) . I would need to use High-Speed DSP or MicroController , cuz i would stream video with Digital Camera at 30 FPS (885 KB per frame) . The controlling would be done via Remote controller with TFT LCD , and also Laptop (with almost half range of the distance of the Remote) . so i would need fast DSP to display the video on the LCD and at the same time , on the laptop screen . 

I think you do not need to stream video with DSP. You can look up a camera with transmitter. It is easy way to implement as an app. First of all, if you would like to control the Quad copter or something else, you need a high resolution PWM module integrated MCU. C2000 family is ideally suited motor controller apps as yours. For example, C2000 launchpad is on the link below which is 17$. By the way,  u are talking about Auto-Pilot, but u say Remote control manually?

thx Burak , and yes there is manual Remote controller , well im not the designer of the Algorithm , im just concerned with the software and the LCD display part . I have not reached my final year yet , im just joining guys older than me with the software applications , like this demo

, so the main objective for me is not the project itself , its that i wanna get much more in the world of DSP , before i really start working on my graduation project in two years . I would upload a youtube video for the project once completed (though im not big fan of uploading videos idk why lol). Thx so much Burak for ur time and Help , Appreciated Bro.

Which part of the software? If you just concerned with LCD display a basic MCU is enough for you. you can choose the MCU which is releated with your part easily from www.ti.com
