CCS/DRV2605EVM-CT: Question about the compiler issue

Zhengquan Lu

Part Number: DRV2605EVM-CT

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi team,

When my customer use CCS software to run the "DRV2605EVM-CT Firmware v1.0" (https://www.ti.com/tool/DRV2605EVM-CT), they found the below issue. But we cannot find MSP430 V4.0.0 compiler version. Could you please help check the reason? Thanks a lot!

This project was created using a version of compiler that is not currently installed - 4.0.0 [MSP430]:
- See 'Help > Install New Software' and select 'Code Generation Tools Updates' to check if this compiler is available through a CCS update.
- Visit CCS App Center to get the latest compiler support.
- Or download and install the compiler [http://software-dl.ti.com/codegen/non-esd/downloads], then register it with CCS through 'Preferences > CCS > Build > Compilers'.

Best Regards

If you follow these directions ..

... you are able to get compiler version 4.0.2. It will look similar to the screen shot below. This version is the same as version 4.0.0, except for bug fixes. I'm sure it will work for you.

Thanks and regards,

Hi George,

Thanks for your help! When I try above steps and click next, it shows me that " 'MSP430 Compiler Tools' will be ignored because a newer version version is already installed". The details are shown as below. Could you please help check? Thanks a lot!

The reason for this is described in the link below:

What version of CCS are you using? And what version of the MSP compiler do you have installed?

Thanks
