CCS/MSP432P401R: MSP432P401R LaunchPad refuses to connect

Part Number: MSP432P401R

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello,

This board does not work as expected any more.  It used to work last year.

When I try to check its status from within CCS v8.3, it shows message as in the attachment.  How do I correct it?  :"(

I have checked this USB cable by connecting it to a MSP430FR4133 board, and CCS can connect to it and programs it to run as usual.

    If you have not used the board in over a year, then there is probably a firmware update that is required. Have you attempted an update?

    How do I update its firmware? :(

    When I run xdsdfu, it cannot connect to my board.

    From the xdsdfu directory, C:\ti\ccsv8\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds110 , find the readme file. The instructions are found there:

    xdsdfu -m
    xdsdfu -f firmware.bin -r

    You may need to pause after the first command to give the OS time to recognize that the XDS110 has reconfigured as a different USB device.

    Maybe to take a step back:

    What revision is the launchpad?
    When you plug in the launchpad, do you see any LEDs on the XDS110 side light up?
    Does it enumerate when connected to your PC/workstation?

    The chip shows it is MSP432P401R REV C

    XDS110-ET Rev 1.1

    LED 102 is on forever.  LED1 is blinking as it was.  There is no other light is blinking.

    The XDS110 drivers are on as shown on the Windows device manager.

    Thank you.  I am not sure what the issue could be.  There is apparently code running on the target.  You may want to diconnect the target device to see if it pulling too much current.  

    Since you have revision C silicon, I assume the launchpad is version 2.0 or higher:

    You may also want to try removing the other USB devices connected so that only the XDS110 is connected and possibly update the driver,

    Yes, it is printed as "MSP-EXP432P401R Rev 2.1"

    I move the development to my Oracle Linux 7.6 server and it is working again. CCS can even update my board's firmware. Even Energia for Linux works very well.

    I guess the native driver of XDS110 on Linux helps very much.

    The Windows driver of XDS110 seems bad! :(

    It works again on Windows 7 but I don't know the reason yet. :(
