Compiler/MSP430FR5994: Error when executing code in Energia- missing files?

Hi Katie,

For Energia-related questions, we recommend posting them on the 43oh forum. Thanks.

Thank you that was useful advice and I solved that issue.

Now I am having the issue that I do not see anything printed on the serial monitor. I upload the code successfully and the port seems to recognize the board and did necessary updates, but there should be words printed on my serial port since I have my MSP430FR5994 connected to a sensor. Any idea why there is nothing there? I set the serial monitor to 115200 baud. I am trying to watch the sensor readings in real time. Maybe I just do not have a good understanding of how to read data from a serial monitor. Here is a copy of the code I am using which is for the Sparkfun heartrate and pulse oxygen sensor. 

#include "SparkFun_Bio_Sensor_Hub_Library.h"
#include "Wire.h"

// No other Address options.
#define DEF_ADDR 0x55

// Reset pin, MFIO pin
const int resPin = 16;
const int mfioPin = 17;

// Takes address, reset pin, and MFIO pin.
SparkFun_Bio_Sensor_Hub bioHub(resPin, mfioPin);

bioData body;


//2
void setup(){

Serial.begin(115200);

Wire.begin();
int result = bioHub.begin();
if (!result)
Serial.println("Sensor started!");
else
Serial.println("Could not communicate with the sensor!!!");

Serial.println("Configuring Sensor....");
int error = bioHub.configBpm(MODE_ONE); // Configuring just the BPM settings.
if(!error){
Serial.println("Sensor configured.");
}
else {
Serial.println("Error configuring sensor.");
Serial.print("Error: ");
Serial.println(error);
}
// Data lags a bit behind the sensor, if you're finger is on the sensor when
// it's being configured this delay will give some time for the data to catch
// up.
delay(4000);

}
//3
void loop(){

// Information from the readBpm function will be saved to our "body"
// variable.
body =bioHub.readBpm();
Serial.print("Heartrate: ");
Serial.println(body.heartRate);
Serial.print("Confidence: ");
Serial.println(body.confidence);
Serial.print("Oxygen: ");
Serial.println(body.oxygen);
Serial.print("Status: ");
Serial.println(body.status);
delay(250); // Slowing it down, we don't need to break our necks here.
}

Hi Katie,

I'm glad that was helpful. Unfortunately, we are not able to support Energia-related questions here on E2E, so I would recommend posting your latest issue over on the 43oh forum. We are able to support questions about C code using our Code Composer Studio (CCS) IDE, so if you ever switch to that environment, we'll be able to help more. Thanks for your understanding.

Regards,

James
