I'm currently working on a project which requires two MSP430 devices in different hardware configurations to communication. To facilitate development I run two instances of CCS5.4 pointed at different workspaces for each MSP. However, each one must use a specific FET that is connected to my workstation.
Currently in the Target Configuration editor, it lists: TI MSP430 USB1, USB2, and USB3. These three entries are rather arbitrary, and do not seem to relate to a specific FET tool. This becomes problematic in environments like mine where each workspace needs to connect to a specific MSP.
It would be far more useful in instances like these to allow the selection of a specific FET COM port. Each FET tool enumerates in the device manager with a COM port, which I can relate to the specific piece of hardware by watching the enumeration sequence as the debuggers are connected to the USB port. There can still be a default or automatic selection option, but with the addition to choose a specific one.
Thanks for the consideration,
Bart Basile
