CCS/CC2650: Getting started with CC2650

Part Number: CC2650

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I recently got the LAUNCHXL -CC2650 launchpad. I have some general questions regarding which I want to ask

1. When I create a new project I only see CC2650F128 as the option. Is there some additional part need to be installed in CCS or are they just different names?

2. My computer shows USB device not recognized error when the launchpad is connected. I did not find any specific driver in the technical software.

Thank you for patient reading

Regards

Onkar

    That is the correct device to choose in CCS.

    If you are starting new with this device/launchpad, rather than creating a new project I would suggest taking a look at the BLE-Stack first. It comes with several examples and documentation to help you get started.

    Which version of CCS do you have installed? And which operating system are you running?
    If you go into your system's Device Manager, do you see the XDS110 debug probe listed there?

    Thank you. Will really look into this suggestion.

    I have CCS Version: 7.2.0.00013 installed on my windows 10 laptop. I do not see XDS110 debug probe list.

    1--> I installed ti_emupack_setup_7.0.48.0_win_32.exe on my system but when I changed the directory to my ccs7 folder I got this error

    2--> I installed it in different directory. When I tried to manually install the drivers I got

    3--> Manually trying to update the drivers from the Device manager, it shows

    I know this is lot of pictures, but they will just describe the problem better. :)

    What could be the problem?

    Thank you in advance

  • The XDS110 driver seems to not have installed properly but I can't tell why. I assume you've already tried plugging into a few different USB ports?

    Perhaps try reinstalling CCS (either to a different directory, or completely delete your existing install folder before reinstalling to the same directory). Make sure the Launchpad is unplugged when installing CCS.

  • Uninstalling, deleting the residual files and reinstalling did not resolve my issue.
  • Hi Onkar,

    I installed CCS and BLE Stack 2.2.1 at c:\ti and I do not encounter your issue.

  • Onkar,

    I'm afraid there appears to be something in your Windows system that is preventing the device drivers from being properly instantiated. Since we have not experienced this issue here I cannot provide specific reasons for why this is happening in your system, but please take a look at this related thread that has some suggestions for troubleshooting (note the user in that thread is using a different emulator but the general device driver installation/troubleshooting tips should be relevant here too):

  • Thank you Aarti

    Sorry for the late reply.
    The cable that I got with the launchpad was faulty.
