CCS/CC2640R2F: Cannot follow most SimpleLink academy tutorials due to mismatches in project files.

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I am trying to learn BLE development with the LAUNCHXL-CC2640R2 board and am following the SimpleLink academy tutorials. I successfully got through Bluetooth Low Energy Fundamentals but then the Scanning and Advertising lab is not clear on what steps I am supposed to take, so I decided to follow the TI-RTOS basics lab and the POSIX project zero lab. However, even though it says I can follow the labs with a CC26xx product, I have nothing in my project files related to syscfg or files like "ti_drivers_config.h" and basically cannot progress through either lab and am stuck. Is there any way to do these labs with my board or am I out of luck since there is no SysCfg support for the CC2640R2F?

Thanks,

Erik

Hi Erik,

I have checked and can confirm that the TI-RTOS basics lab and the POSIX project zero lab contain references to SysCfg which as you have observed is not supported by CC2640R2.

I have filed a ticket with the necessary teams to correct this.

That said, the labs within http://dev.ti.com/tirex/explore/node?node=AO9tDQs88Bcw33.wxV2moA__krol.2c__LATEST should be accurate for CC2640R2.

You mentioned

>> then the Scanning and Advertising lab is not clear on what steps I am supposed to take

Can you let us know the steps specifically that are confusing so that we can update them and make them better in the future?
