Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430G2211, MSP430G2213, MSP430G2231

Hi

i was working with my msp430g2211 very well, but suddenly it look like "MSP430: Error connecting to the target: Could not find device (or device not supported)"

and i cant load my program to my target, who can help me? pliss.

  • Hi Juan,

    did anything change?  Did you install other programs?  Upgrade or change anything in CCS?  Are you using the launchpad hardware?  Or your own hardware?  What CCS version?  Any details will help.

    Best Regards,

    Lisa

  • Hi lisa,

    yes i was using msp430g2213, but i changed to msp430g2211 do you know what happened is? 

    help me plis

  • Hi Juan,

    I still may need more information but two things to check

    - if you changed parts in the socket, make sure the new part was inserted correctly

    - did you change the device in your project/target configuration (ccxml file)

    Please keep us informed.

  • Hi Juan,

    no CCS is fine for you.  Did you check

    - if you changed parts in the socket, make sure the new part was inserted correctly

    - did you change the device in your project/target configuration (ccxml file)

    Best Regards,
    Lisa

  • Hi, Lisa

    in my project/target configuration say, file name:NewTargetConfiguration.ccxml

    and Location: C:/Users/pc/ti/CCSTargetConfigurations

    Do i have to change something there?

  • Hi Juan,

    I would check that the device in the ccxml file is also the new msp you are using. I would also double check how you are plugging the device into the socket.  Please keep us informed.
