CCS/MSP-EXP430F5529LP: 2 questions about USB and msp430f5529LP

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSBIOS, MSP430F5529

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Dear all,

I started a small project with USB and I am using the msp430f5529LP as a prototype platform. I have checked several examples and docs and I think I am on the right track.

However, I have 2 questions.

Some of the examples, for example C3_EchoToHost work, but the first connection to my CuteCom or MoSerial software (on Linux) are very slow. After running them, I have to wait about 30 seconds to open the port, otherwise it tells me it is busy :) Is this something common? Is this because of slow enumeration?
On the other hand, I am trying to build the Sysbios example, CHM2_tasks. However, while other example can be built, this one crashed. I guess I have the wrong "XDC products" installed, although I tried several ones. Currently, I have SYSBIOS 6.46.6.00 and 6.46.0.23. Both give me this error:

Curious to know any suggestions and/or thoughts.

2) Had some success with 6.70.x :) Is this the latest one I can use for this?

1) still slow so still accepting suggestions :)

Hi kazola,

Regarding #1, I'm still trying to see if I can reproduce that behavior.

Regarding #2, I'm reaching out to the RTOS tools team to see if they can figure this out.

Thanks Dennis Lehman !

Any other news about this? :)

Hope you all are ok.

Regarding your CDC device on Linux, by default after plug in, modem manager (by itself) will try to establish communication with connected device, and will gave up after 30 seconds. So you should wait 30 seconds before opening port / exchange data by your PC side program, or blacklist your device (with VID/PID) for modem manager by udev rules.

msp@linux:~$ echo -e 'ATTR{idVendor}=="2047" ATTRS{idProduct}=="0xxx",
  ENV{ID_MM_DEVICE_IGNORE}="1"\nATTR{idVendor}=="2047"
  ATTRS{idProduct}=="0xxx", ENV{ID_MM_DEVICE_IGNORE}="1"' |
  sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/mm-blacklist-xxx.rules

sudo udevadm control --reload-rules

zrno soli

you are a genius :) this solved problem #1! I simply uninstalled modem manager

What about #2, TI?

Hi Kazola,

I apologize for the long delay - didn't know if you solved #2.

I'm being told a couple of different things.

First, have you tried the latest SYSBIOS and XDC tools?

Will try!

Will not work on this for a while so I will mark this as solved :)
