What is the cheapest option (hardware needed) to program MSP430 F2274 directly with a binary/hex code produced in Code Composer ? I have an ez430-RF2500 emulator that comes in the package - can I do it with it ?

Yes, you can use the Spy-Bi-Wire interface of the ez430-RF2500 emulator for this purpose. Alternatively you could use a MSP430 Launchpad (http://www.ti.com/tool/MSP-EXP430G2).

The LaunchPad experimenter board is capable of programming the eZ430-RF2500T target boards, the eZ430-Chronos watch module or the eZ430-F2012T/F2013T target boards.

Thanks. How can I do it then with the ez430-RF2500 emulator - what software to use without running a CC project ?

You can use the MSP430 Flasher for this purpose: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/MSP430_Flasher_-_Command_Line_Programmer

Another option would be using the free FET-Pro430 Software from Elprotronic: http://www.elprotronic.com/files/FET-Pro430-Lite-Setup.zip
