CCS/MSP430FR2311: No MSP430Ware in App Center

Part Number: MSP430FR2311
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430WARE

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

I'm using CCS 7.00 for developing a project on MSP430FR2311

My problem is that I'm unable to use driver library available in MSP430Ware.

MSP430Ware is NOT availabe in App Centre.

Though MSPWare is available in the Resource Explorer, I'm unable to import any example from it to the IDE.

Any pointers on how to move forward??

Cheers,

Vivek

  • Vivek,

    Please download and install the latest CCS 7.1.0 build 16 from here (http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Download_CCS). It fixes a few Resource Explorer related bugs and should address your issue. After CCS is installed, download the MSP430Ware package again from Resource Explorer (it should install to c:\ti). Make sure to delete the <users>/ti/tirex-localserver-3.0.0 directory if there is one, and then try importing projects using Resource Explorer. 

    Let us know if this helps!

  • Based on your post here, I assume this issue is resolved. If so, please mark the thread as Answered. Let us know if it is not resolved.

  • Should I safely uninstall existing version of CCS before instaling the latest one?

    Yes, you can do that. Or you can even have both versions installed side-by-side (as long as they are installed to different directories) if you wish to.

    If you plan to uninstall and install the new version to the same directory, then make sure the directory is completely deleted before reinstalling to the same location. If there are any left-over files that could cause issues during reinstallation.

  • I think I was getting greedy: Trying to get everything working. You first suggestion did work for importing the porject but then trying to resolve APP CENTER issue was little too much. After unistalling CCS V7.00 (& deleting everything), I presumed installation would be easy. But of course it wasn't !!
    unresponsive installation script.

    Please suggest what best can be done now?
    should I try offline installer?If "yes", what is the best way to ennsure that nothing goes wrong this time?
    I need to get this one working.
  • I am sorry to hear you are running into more problems. 

    Here is what I would suggest:

    - Uninstall/delete any existing remnants of CCS installations
    - Download the latest CCS 7.1 build 16 from here (http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Download_CCS) - I would suggest the offline installer
    - Review the general instalation tips in this page  
    - Unzip and run the installer
    - Start up CCS and open Resource Explorer
    - Select the desired software package and "Install to Desktop" (if this has not been done already)
    - Navigate to desired example in Resource Explorer and import project to IDE

    Hope this helps!
