MSP430F5438 IAR error debuging

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F5438, MSP430F2274

Hi,

I'm trying to debug a MSP430F5438 from a MSP-EXP430F5438 experimenter board. I have a problem when debuging, there's no detection of the debug-interface (a MSP-FET430UIF). We have installed all the drivers of the FET and MSP-EXP430F5438 but we can' debug. Could it be related ti the version of IAR? because we have a v.4 licensed version of IAR. However, we have debuged on the MSP430F2274 from a eZ430-RF2500 development kit.

Regards,

Victor

    Hi Victor,

    If the target can't be found:

    There was an issue in the msp430.dll, version 2.4.4.0, newer version should work fine. The DLL is the bridging element btween the IDE and your debug interface. You may want to check your version (C:\Program Files\IAR Systems\Embedded Workbench 6.0 Kickstart\430\bin). I suggest to download the latest IAR release/service pack.

    If the interface wasn't found:

    Please check if the UIF is present in the Windows device manager (under COM/LPT Ports - "MSP-FET430UIF - VCP (COMxx)"). Please make sure that you have only the UIF plugged in to the PC (by default IAR always talks to eZ430 emulators first) and not the eZ430 at the same time (unless you select the UIF specifically in the IAR debugger menu).

    Regards,

    Markus
