ACTBP communicating with PC

Hi,

I am trying to control the ACTBP through CCS instead of the capacitive touch interface. So I want to be able to enter a command to select which track to play instead of scrolling on the capacitive touch to the desired track. Is this possible to do?

Thanks!

  • Mahum,

    You cannot do this from CCS. You can control the DSP application from a UART terminal on the PC but you would have to make sure that the host application is disabled so that the MSP430 does not interfere. The DSP software wiki has details about the UART connection setup required and the supported commands.

  • Hi,

    I believe you should be able to use CCS to connect to the MSP430 on the Launchpad and run a program that controls the C5535 DSP via the UART commands listed on the ACTBP SW wiki.
