ccs 5.5.0 and importing a project from ccs 5.3 (ads1118 boosterpack)

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ADS1118, MSP430WARE, MSP430G2553

I'm trying to rebuild the ads118 boosterpack software http://www.ti.com/litv/zip/sbac121a

after unzipping and so on , i import it in my workspace

it seems the project was build before with ccs5.3, but when i run a clean build i only get the next error:

Description    Resource    Path    Location    Type
can't locate the package 'ti.mcu.msp430.drivers.product' along the path: 'E:/ti/grace_2_00_00_52_eng/packages;E:/ti/ccsv5/ccs_base;E:/ti/msp430/MSP430ware_1_60_01_11/packages;E:/ti/xdctools_3_25_03_72/packages;..;'.

verifying msp430ware_1_60... it has no packages directory anymore (msp430ware_1_30 had it) and so on

there are also 3 warnings

I've been busy now more then 10 hours and running out of options :) its fun that I'm more busy with getting ccs working then with getting focused with debugging my own msp430 programs........

:) best regards

  • Hi,

    I just updated my CCSv5.4 with the new MSP430Ware and also found out it does not have any packages directory as well. However, that did not block me from building the code without errors (check the attached log). I imported the project ADS1118_LaunchPad and selected "Copy to workspace".

    One thing that I noticed in your build output is that you are using an engineering (beta?) release of Grace, therefore this may be one of the reasons why this expects the package to be in a specific place - not sure, though.

    All in all, I wonder if other components (XDC, etc.) may be outdated - the project I imported uses the following:

    Hope this helps,

    Rafael

     

     

  • Of course first thank you for your reply, the last 2 days fully occupied with installing ccs5.3 ,5.4, 5.5,just the plain web install, on different virtual machines, just to see if with 1 version i get it rebuilt without the above errors.... it didn't

    tomorrow i try updating the ccs5.3 vm for another try...

    by the way , the header file of the msp430g2553.h is missing the adc calibration data, see the datasheet

    it has calibration data of the internal temperature sensor by 30'c at 1.5v vref and 2.5v vref

    later today i will post the adjustment for the header file and hope this will help for TI too :)

    best regards

  • 6076.msp430g2553.h

    the above file has the new adc10 calibration data, the below are the added definitions in the 

    /************************************************************
    * Calibration Data in Info Mem
    ************************************************************/

    #define CAL_ADC_25T85_          0x10EA
    const_sfrb(CAL_ADC_25T85, CAL_ADC_25T85_);
    #define CAL_ADC_25T30_               0x10E8;
    const_sfrb(CAL_ADC_25T30, CAL_ADC_25T30_ );
    #define CAL_ADC_25VREF_FACTOR_  0x10E6;
    const_sfrb(CAL_ADC_25VREF_FACTOR, CAL_ADC_25VREF_FACTOR_);
    #define CAL_ADC_15T85_  0x10E4;
    const_sfrb(CAL_ADC_15T85, CAL_ADC_15T85_);
    #define CAL_ADC_15T30_  0x10E2;
    const_sfrb(CAL_ADC_15T30, CAL_ADC_15T30_);
    #define CAL_ADC_15VREF_FACTOR_  0x10E0;
    const_sfrb(CAL_ADC_15VREF_FACTOR, CAL_ADC_15VREF_FACTOR_);
    #define CAL_ADC_OFFSET_  0x10DE;
    const_sfrb(CAL_ADC_OFFSET, CAL_ADC_OFFSET_);
    #define CAL_ADC_GAIN_FACTOR_  0x10DC;
    const_sfrb(CAL_ADC_GAIN_FACTOR, CAL_ADC_GAIN_FACTOR_);

    keep in mind themsp430g2553 has no calibration data for 85 'c ,only for 30'c , but very useful

    also the reference values of 1.5v and so on when you like to work accurate with the adc10

    I hope this helps

  • Hi,

    Thanks for sending the information; the CCS team does not maintain the MSP430 header files, therefore I want to make sure this is forwarded to someone that will be able to handle this appropriately.

    BTW, I suppose the build was successful, right?

    Regards,

    Rafael
