  • Hello,

    it sounds like you may have chose the wrong type of license.  Is this CCSv4 or v5

    What type of license do you have/wish to use?  How did you setup licensing in CCS? 

    It sounds to me like you wanted to use the free code size limited MSP license, but chose the "Free limited license" by mistake which as the message says is for XDS100 emulators and some non MSP evaluation kits.

    I would check two things .  If you are using v5 go to Help->Code Composer Studio Licensing Information.  The manage tab will allow you to relaunch the license setup.
