msp430 launchpad emulator

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F2011

Hi,

I am using MSP430 launchpad and CCS 6 to program MSP430F2011. I am interested in using the launchpad emulator to program the microcontroller on my PCB. I am using J4 pins to connect VCC, GRD, TEST and RST pins of the launchpad to my PCB. To do this, I open jumper connection of TEST and RST on J3. Below is a snapshot of the microcontroller and its components on my PCB. 

I am running a very simple blink LED to test my connections. 

#include <msp430F2011.h>

int main(void) {
WDTCTL = WDTPW | WDTHOLD; // Stop watchdog timer
P1DIR |= 0x01; // Set P1.0 to output direction

for(;;) {
volatile unsigned int i; // volatile to prevent optimization

P1OUT ^= 0x01; // Toggle P1.0 using exclusive-OR

i = 10000; // SW Delay
do i--;
while(i != 0);
}

return 0;
}

The 4 signals (VCC, GND, TEST, and RST) are send correctly to the PCB. However, I keep getting the following error:

Error connecting to the target
Could not find the device(or device is unsupported).

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Thanks a lot,
