How to install an old version of TI-RTOS in CCS6.1?

I'm trying to run some internal CC13xx projects based on TI-RTOS 2.14.0.9.  The project settings show this RTOS version, but says it's not installed, and will use another version.  The main CCS installation window confirms this.  I have the latest TI-RTOS 2.14.1.20 installed (through the app center).  And I have 2.14.0.9 extracted to the C:/TI directory.

How can I make CCS recognize this older version?  Using the "install new software" feature does not find it.  Neither does the automatic update.   I've tried putting the directory for the 2.14.0.9 as an available site, but it still doesn't find the software.

I've run into this problem previously.  It seems all our instructions say that it will be automatically detected, but doesn't give instructions on what to do if it's not.  It seems that the only way to make CCS recognize something is by using the App Center.

    Hi,

    I wonder if it is unable to recognize because the versions are too close together (2.14.*.*). Can you try to disable the latest 2.14.1.20 and see if the 2.14.0.9 gets pulled automatically? Obviously provided you properly added the path to the Product discovery path (menu Windows --> Preferences --> Code Composer Studio --> RTSC --> Products)

    In my PC I can see multiple TI-RTOS versions detected, but they are all different in the second digit (2.01.x.x, 2.11.x.x, 2.12.x.x and 2.13.x.x)

    Hope this helps,
    Rafael

    I got CCS to recognize the 2.14.0.9 version.  I had thought that having CCS search for updates (Help->Search for Updates) would find it, but it never would.  I had to got to Windows --> Preferences --> Code Composer Studio --> RTSC --> Products, then hit "Search Now" from that screen for it to be found.  Note that the path was already in the product discovery path. 

    Is it expected that the RTSC products are not automatically detected except for this method?

    Hendrix,

    I am glad everything is working now. A few comments:

    Different subsystems. To install new or update existing products/components, that is the tool to use. To detect products already installed, the product discovery tool is the one to be used.

    There is a setting that disables automatic detection of new products at startup, and I have the impression that matches your setup. On the same preferences view you mentioned before, see if the option Automatically discover products each time Code Composer Studio is started is checked.

    Cheers,

    Thanks. I didn't realize there was a different place to look for the tools. And yes, I did have the automatic discovery turned off.
