CCS/MSP-FET430UIF: CCS7 mac Communicating with the FET430UIF

Part Number: MSP-FET430UIF

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

I'm trying to get my MSP-430UIF running on macOS 10.13. So far I've installed CCS7 and the TIVCPSerial.kext. When I plug in the programmer, it gets assigned a virtual serial port and I am able to work with the programmer using mspdebug from the command line.

I set CCS to UART mode with the according serial port, and it recognizes the FET correctly. However, when I try to launch the program, I get the following error (the target is running an MSP430F5438A)

MSP430: Trouble Writing Memory Block at 0x5c00 on Page 0 of Length 0x19dc: Read timed out 
MSP430: File Loader: Verification failed: Target failed to write 0x5C00 
MSP430: GEL: File: /Users/heller/ti/pl-mcu-epd/Debug/pl-mcu-epd.out: Load failed.

So basically the same as what I get if the target board is not connected, however, using mspdebug uif -d /dev/cu.TIVCP341014130 -j I can access the programmer and the target board.
Is there a possibility to see how the programming tools are called to dig further into the issue?

I'm running CCS 7.4.0.00015 on macOS 10.13.3 and an MSP-FET430UIF v1.4a

Kind regards,

Florian
