Upgrade from ccs 2.21 to ccs 5.0

Hi Hisham,

you would only be able to do the upgrade for free with an active subscription.  

Having said that you may be able to use CCSv5 with a type of free license depending on the hardware you use.  For example CCSv5 is free to use with the XDS100 emulator.    There is also a 90 day trial you can do if you are not using an xds100.

This wiki has further information.

Does this help clarify?

Best regards,

Lisa

what do you mean by active subscription and how may i know if i have an active subscription or not?

note that i have a license for ccs and compiler.

Hi Lisa

Thank you,

Where can i find my activation id in order to check for it?

Hi Hisham,

perhaps the best would be for you to contact the license team

ccs_subscriptions@list.ti.com

 they will both help you with subscription status and activation id.   I suspect you will have to purchase a v5 license but two notes

- CCS is free to use with the xds100 emulator

- there is a 90 day demo so you can try v5 first.

I recommend the latest version which is v5.3

Best Regards,
Lisa
