CCS/MSP432P401R: Fail to re-install Simplelink MSP432P4 SDK

Part Number: MSP432P401R

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

I had previously uninstalled the SimpleLink MSP432P4 SDK. When I tried to re-install it recently and importing an example to the CCS, the "Resource Explorer" kept asking me to "download and install". Further, even if I press "Download and install" for any demo programs, the software icons still show a "grey" arrow afterwards.

I had tried uninstalling everything, including the CCS and SimpleLink SDK, and re-install them again. The SimpleLink MSP432P4 SDK still couldn't be installed properly; while the file icons remain a greyish downward arrow.

Please give me some indications how I could resolve this issue. Thanks very much.

    Hi, 

    try this page: http://dev.ti.com/tirex/explore

    Download icon in the right upper corner.
    Use the three horizontal lines icon above the download to run the Package Manager to select SDK version you need.

    Hi TOM,

    Unfortunately, I still couldn't re-install the SimpleLink SDK. I had tried using the "3 horizontal line" icon to alter the path. After installing relevant SDK, I tried "import to IDE" but the Resource Explorer still keep asking me to "Download and Install".

    It seems to me that the Resource Explorer cannot locate the installed SimpleLink SDK. Do I need to manually select / insert a path for it? Further, I had checked that the SimpleLink SDK had installed at "c:\ti\simplelink_msp432p4_sdk_3_20_00_06".

    best regards,

    Anthony

    Hi, 

    you have simplelink_msp432p4_sdk_3_20_00_06 already installed. 

    Use Project -> Import CCS Projects ... to import what you need. 

    Regarding my previous post.
    Use download icon to download an SDK installer.
    The run the installer and install SDK in a place you prefer.

    Anthony,

    The workaround from Tom is a good one.  I would like to figure out why Resource Explorer is not recognizing the SDK.  Which version of CCS are you running?

    Resource Explorer does generate some log files in C:\<USERNAME>\ti\tirex-localserver-<VERSION>\logs.   Would you be able to attach any logs from that folder?

    Regards,

    John

    Hi JOHN,

    I am currently using Code Composer Studio (Version: 9.1.0.00010). Further, I have attached the logs for your reference.

    Thanks & Regards,

    Anthony

    Thanks Anthony.  I was able to reproduce the same behaviour today.

    In Resource Explorer do you have a board selected in the filter box?  If so clear that filter.  For me if I have a filter selected then for some reason Resource Explorer is not correctly identifying the package is installed.  Once I clear the filter it is all good.

    Hi JOHN,

    Thanks for your advice. If I don't select a board via the filter box, I was able to use the downloaded SimpleLink SDK under the Software tree (the downward arrow icon is GREEN).

    Regards,

    Anthony
