MSP-FET Flash Emulation Tool problem

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP-TS430RGZ48B, MSP430F5342, MSP-FET

Hi,

I am using MSP FET Flash Emulation Tool for MSP-TS430RGZ48B board with MSP430F5342.I am using CCS 6.1.2 .Initially I was using it successfully. I am not able to connect to the board now and getting this error.

Error connecting to the target-Unknown Device

Unable to connect to target.

I remember this error used to come when I was selecting the wrong device. Now I am selecting the correct family and device though.

I see the red light flashing for a few seconds when I try to write to MSP.And then it stops and I eventually get the error.  VCC_TOOL as described in User's Guide SLAU647E–July 2015–Revised September 2016 page 19 is 3.3 Volt, after power up. I am not getting this voltage. This is why I have come to conclusion that it might be a problem with the debugger.

The MSP board has JP3 connected to int pin as was by default.
