CCS/MSP432P401R: MSP low-power microcontroller forum

Part Number: MSP432P401R

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi All,

I recently upgraded to CCS9 and after getting my projects setup and compiling, I tried to upgrade CCS9, because there were some updates, including a JLink one.  I have a JLink programmer, but don't usually use it.  The upgrade had some problems, but I went on to try to flash an EXP-MSP432P401R red board.  I got the following error:

Sketch uses 40216 bytes (15%) of program storage space. Maximum is 262144 bytes.
Global variables use 25740 bytes (39%) of dynamic memory, leaving 39796 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 65536 bytes.

I tried another one, and got the same results.

Finally I tried a brand new board since I had one here, and it has the same error.  I moved my CCS9 install folder and reinstalled it.  After getting it set up, I still get this error. 

Then I tried flashing the board with Energia 21, and got this message from Energia:

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
