MSP430FR5994: UART - Working code but nothing is printed on terminal

Part Number: MSP430FR5994
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430G2553,

Hi everyone,

I was using MSP430G2553 then I switched to FR5994. For testing UART comminication I was using two codes, one of them is utilizing polling and the other one is utilizing interruppts for user buttons. I read related parts of the family user's guide for MSP430fr5994 and I performed necessary changes on those codes for testing UART in FR994. Codes are working properly but I cannot read any data on the CCS terminal. I spend too much time to resolve the issue but i cannot come up with a solution. Both two codes are added below

I would be glad if you could help. Thank you...
