Hi TI Community,

I am new to the environment. I just got t he TI Cloud toll and imported the Energia accelerometer sketch to it.

Upon building encountered no problem. After setting the serial port and the baud rate I debugged the code :

I ended up with this error:

Loading Program: C:/Users/selwyn77/AppData/Local/Temp/ADXL3xx.hex:

Error: MSP430_0: Trouble Writing Memory Block at 0x4400 on Page 0 of Length 0xdbc: Could not write device memory

Error: MSP430_0: File Loader: Verification failed: Target failed to write 0x4400

0% Finished

Failed: Failed to evaluate GEL_LoadProgramOnly( "C:/Users/selwyn77/AppData/Local/Temp/ADXL3xx.hex" ): File: C:/Users/selwyn77/AppData/Local/Temp/ADXL3xx.hex: Load failed.

Can you please help me out?

Jeru,

Which target board are you using? I just tried the ADXL3xx Energia sketch with CCS Cloud and a MSP430F5529 Launchpad and was able to successfully build and download the program.

We verified that we can build and load to MSP430G2553 Launchpad successfully as well.

Did you make sure to select the msp430g2553 device when importing the Energia sketch? It appears that you may have selected a different device, so the project may be built for a different device than the one you are loading to.

There is no memory at address 0x4400 in a MSP430G2553 - the main code memory in a MSP430G2553 is from address 0xC000 to 0xFFFF.

[Whereas in a MSP430F5529 the main code memory starts at address 0x04400]

This suggests the wrong device device type has been configured in Energia.
