Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP-EXP430G2ET
Tool/software: Code Composer Studio
I have a Boost-DRV8711 connected to a MSP-EXP430G2ET. I have installed CCS 9.2.0.00013 on MacOS Catalina v10.15.2. I have imported the BOOST-DRV8711_FIRMWAREV1.11 project into CCS. I have also successfully connected to the MSP and have updated the firmware. I am following the instructions in Boost-DRV8711 Users Guide, SLUV976A Rev June 2019.
I want to run the Stepper Motor Demo applications on my MacOS. I am having trouble with section 4.3, Setting up the BOOST-DRV89711 GUI. I have found that the GUI Composer Runtime is not available for MacOS so I have loaded the cloud based GUI Composer. However I am unable to figure out how to load the GUI from the FIRMWARE folder into the cloud based GUI Composer. I am not even sure the GUI files in the firmware folder are compatible with the cloud based GUI. Is there any way to run this on the cloud based GUI Composer?
If not, is there any other way to load and run the GUI on MacOS? I have seen some threads that seem to suggest GUI Composer can be run inside CCS. Is this correct?
If I cannot run on MacOS, can I somehow run the Stepper Motor Demo on Ubuntu Linux? The instructions seem pretty specific to Windows.
Thank you for your help!
