    So the input of the MSP430 is simply a pulse from the pedometer? If this is the case then you should be using a timer in capture mode. If you are using a more complex sensor that requires a communication peripheral (SPI, UART, or I2C) then you will need to use your MSP430's corresponding (e)USCI module.  Please refer to the information provided in the Datasheet and User's Guide.

    You might want to look at Energia. It has a lot of high level functions for doing exactly this.
