Debug Suspended - HW Breakpoint

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F5529

Hi

I'm trying to run my program code on my MSP430F5529 Launchpad with CSS. It worked fine two days ago but now it says "Suspended - HW Breakpoint" right after pressing the debug button. (see picture attached)

What can i do?

  • Hi Bernhard,

    Maybe you didn't notice that same behavior before, but it seems OK. CCS is just stopping at the beginning of main()
    You can change this behavior in Project Properties -> Debug -> Auto Run and Launch Options

  • But why are the Resume and Step Buttons etc. not working?
  • I think I'm able to replicate the problem when using the CCS Simple perspective (which you are using according to your screenshot)

    Try closing the "CCS Simple" perspective (right click the corresponding button in top right corner and select Close)
    Then open a "CCS Debug" perspective (click the button to the left of "CCS Edit", then add a "CCS Debug")
    Close CCS
    Restart CCS
    Debug

    Let me know if that works.

    Regards,

  • Luis,

    I have been having a similar issue. I'm using CCS 6.2 with an MSP432, and I am not currently using CCS simple, just the standard CCS edit and debug. I've tried your recommendations but have not received valid results yet. Currently, CCS states that a HW breakpoint has been received and the Cortex has been halted. Do you have any other suggestions?
