no console opens in PUTTY,but my data is appearing on TI,GUI.

hi,

  i have written a UART interface program to ez430rf2500. i tried to use PUTTY as indicated by some tutorials on net. data about it is given at following links

http://cnx.org/content/m21582/latest/

http://www.plugcomputer.org/plugwiki/index.php/SerialTerminal/Windows/PuTTY  -INSTALLATION STEPS.

but when i go to serial option & click  "open" ,nothing is opening.no dialog box can be seen.

but when i installed the GUI given by TI, menu->console, i can see the data appearing perfectly on screen for my own program.

can anyone have an idea why putty is not at all opening?r there any other steps too that have to be followed?

what could be the problem here?

in my project,i shouldn't use TI GUI. 

i have to use other serial reading programs.so,i found about putty when i googled out.

has any one used putty for dispalying serial data using COM port?

  • How are you setting up the PuTTY session?

    I used the following :

    1) Selected Session in the "Category" window on the left.
    2) Select Serial for "Connection type:" on the right side.
    3) Entered which COM port the MSP430 Application UART was enumerated to.  In my case, it was COM18
    4) In the Category->Connection->Serial, I made sure Flow Control was set to None.
    5) Click Open
