CCS/MSP432P401R: CCS/MSP432P401R

Part Number: MSP432P401R

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

When I tried download project from Resource Explorer CCS I got two projects in Project Explorer  window.

1.freertos_builds_MSP_EXP432P401R_release_ccs

2.mqtt_client_server_MSP_EXP432P401R_freertos_ccs [Active-Debug]

Both with red marks.

After building I got on Problem window and Console window errors and warnings 

Why created two project?

What's mean: 

"Required variable 'FREERTOS_INSTALL_DIR' cannot be resolved or is pointing to a non-existent location. See 'Preferences > CCS > Build > Variables' page to define this variable before building this project."

How to resolve this problem?

  • Hi Iliya,

    when working with on RTOS (FreeRTOS or TIRTOS) you will always get two projects:

    - a RTOS project which contains the RTOS kernel and will be build as an library

    - the real project containing your project, it will build as executable and links the RTOS library to this project.

    This make the compile times faster as it has already the RTOS build (after the first run) and also makes the project organization easier for you.

    As you are using FreeRTOS please ensure that you have read this document and followed the installation instructions for FreeRTOS

    But couple more questons...

    I work with MSP-EXP432P401R and CC3120BOOST.
    I try to play with WIFI examples.

    As far I understood there is example in C:\ti\simplelink_sdk_wifi_plugin_2_30_00_10\source\ti\drivers\net\wifi
    But when I try to import this example to CCS throug Project-> Import CCS Projects and browsing to:

    C:\ti\simplelink_sdk_wifi_plugin_2_30_00_10\source\ti\drivers\net\wifi\ccs\nortos
    I got error messages:

    "See details below...
    simplelink_nortos
    Device is either 'null' or is currently not recognized by CCS. See 'Help > Check for Updates' or visit CCS App Center to get the latest device support.
    Device is either 'null' or is currently not recognized by CCS. See 'Help > Check for Updates' or visit CCS App Center to get the latest device support."

    I have done all updates but this error not disappeared.

    When I try to imprt from: C:\ti\simplelink_sdk_wifi_plugin_2_30_00_10\source\ti\drivers\net\wifi\ccs\
    I got anothere error:
    "See details below...
    Import failed for project 'simplelink' because its meta-data cannot be interpreted. Please contact support."

    Sorry, I am not so smart in CCS....

    May be you can advise to me wich SDK better for playing with examples WIFI on MSP-EXP432P401R and CC3120BOOST.

    Thanks...
  • Hi Iliya,
    i am not sure but i assume you are not using the Resource Explorer.
    If this is the case i highly recommend to use this as this will give you an easy access to all the documentation and examples, even the importing into CCS is handled here.

    To start the Resource Explorer go to CCS menu | View Resource Explorer

    For examples to the MSP432 and CC3120 you may would like to check
    SimpleLink SDK Plugins | Connectivity | SimpleLink SDK WiFi Plugin ......
