Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F5529, CC3100SDK, CC3120BOOST, CC3120, CC3100BOOST, BOOSTXL-CC3120MOD, MSP432E401Y

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Windows 10 

Antivirus Avast...

Evaluation board MSP-EXP430F5529LP

Code Composer Studio Version: 8.2.0.00007

I am trieing import project getting_started_with_wlan_station from sdk3100 and got the error :

"Import failed for project 'getting_started_with_wlan_station' because its meta-data cannot be interpreted. Please contact support."

    When I look at this project it looks like it is for a TM4C LaunchPad and not MSP430F5529

    I can see Tiva-c-launchpad in the path as compared to other projects that show msp430f5529lp in the path.  If you do not have support for Tiva devices installed in CCS then the project will not be able to import.  Plus it is for a different platform than what you have.

  • I have a problem with examples CC3100SDK_1.3.0..

    I try to run on Code Composer Studio Version: 8.2.0.00007

     any example project from folder: 

    C:\ti\CC3100SDK_1.3.0\cc3100-sdk\platform\msp430f5529lp\example_project_ccs\ 

    from menu File->Open Project from File System,

    project come up in "Project Explorer", but the button "Build" is not active. 

    If I try to build from menu Project-> Build Project nothing happen.

    Any project contains one folder :

    targetConfig

    and three files

    lnk_msp430f5529.cmd

    macros.ini

    nwp_filters.projectspec

    That's all

    Not any .c or .h files 

    What's wrong? 

  • You will want to remove the project from your workspace.

    Then go to the project menu and select "Import CCS Projects..."
    Browse to the folder where the project is located.
    Select the project and import it into your workspace.

  • Thank you so much JohnS.. 

    I ran two examples on LanchPad MSP-EXP430F5529LP with CC3120BOOST:

    file_operations

    and

    getting_stared_with_wlan_station 

    Program looping forever on this code on main program:

    retVal = configureSimpleLinkToDefaultState();
    if(retVal < 0)
    {
    if (DEVICE_NOT_IN_STATION_MODE == retVal)
    CLI_Write((_u8 *)" Failed to configure the device in its default state \n\r");

    LOOP_FOREVER();
    }

    retVal = -2000 for "file_operations"

    and 

    retVal = -2002 for "getting_stared_with_wlan_station"

    Might be you have some point what's wrong?

    Thanks.

  • Iliya,

    I will need to loop in a device expert for this part.

  • Hi Iliya,

    Are you using a CC3120BOOST as you said in your post, or a CC3100BOOST? These are different parts. There is a different SDK for the CC3120, and these devices support different host MCUs.

  • Hi Sarah,

    1. I use  CC3120BOOST and BOOSTXL-CC3120MOD.

    2. One more thing. 

    I find out that when I use BOOSTXL-CC3120MOD with MSP-EXP430F5529LP and try to download the same code for debug - failed download code... 

    With CC3120BOOST  no problem.

    3. For my project I need to use SPI instead of UART. 

    I can't  recognize where in the source code   #define SL_IF_TYPE_UART

    or I need just #undef SL_IF_TYPE_UART ?

    Thank you so much for help !!!

    My Regards... 

     

  • Hi Iliya,

    The CC3100SDK_1.3.0 does not support the CC3120. None of those examples will work out of the box on the CC3120. You need the CC3120 Wi-Fi Plugin SDK instead: www.ti.com/.../simplelink-wifi-cc3120-sdk-plugin

    The CC3120 SDK does not have drivers to support the MSP430F5529 as a host MCU. The microcontrollers with supported drivers are MSP432P401R, MSP432P4111, and MSP432E401Y.
    If you would like to use a different microcontroller as the host, you will need to port the host driver yourself according to the documentation in the Network Processor Programmer's Guide: http://www.ti.com/lit/swru455

    Best regards,
    Sarah

  • Sarah, thank you so much.
    I supposed this way.
    Last question.
    According my project I have to write driver for working whith CC3120 for microprocessor STM32L152.
    Is it really possible to rewrite this driver for this microprocessor?
    Sorry for this unobvious question...

    Best regards...
    iliya
  • Hi Iliya,

    You can absolutely port the host driver to other microcontrollers. I just wanted to be clear so you didn't think it was supported out of the box.

    You should reference the Porting the Host Driver section of the NWP Programmer's Guide: http://www.ti.com/lit/swru455

  • Hi Sarah,

    Thank you very much for wonderful help!!!
