Problem with demo application "Simple" for the MSP-EXP430F5438+PAN1315ETU

Elisabeth Scheid

Hi,

I wanted to try the "Simple-Application" on the MSP-EXP430F5438. I downloaded the MSPEXP-PAN13xx SDK from TI and installed the PAN1315ETU on the Experimenter's Board as described in the Developer's Guide including shorting the RF3 pins.

I'm using the IAR Workbench 30-day Evaluation version with an Olimex for debugging. After downloading the application onto the Experimenter's Board and clicking on "Go", the programm gets stuck during the BT_UART_ISR (msp430_uart.c ) in the line UART_TRANSMIT(buff_data);

Everytime I break I get the following warning: The stack pointer for stack 'Stack' (currently Memory:0x293C) is outside the stack range (Memory:0x5B60 to Memory:0x5C00)

I honestly don't know where to start looking for the problem, if it's because of something on the Experimenter's Board like a jumper connection I forgot or if it's some configuration of the IAR workbench.

I also have one other question concerning the IAR workbench: For my own application I copied the "Simple Application" into a empty project and changed it in a few places and now the IAR workbench downloads the application but afterward I can't go through the application as "Go", "Step into" etc are disabled and the first line of my main-function isn't highlighted green.

Can someone help me with those 2 problems?

Lizzy,

Have you been able to run the Penguin demo using the Accl application? DId you follow the wiki instructions for installing RF3 and the other jumpers? The error you're getting means the CTS pin might be having trouble communicating. If you let the application run, does the red LED blink fast and then remains solid? If not, you might be downloading the wrong SP and you should look here:

Hi Gustavo,

it doesn't make any difference which application I try to download onto the Experimenter's Board. They all get stuck at the code line I mentioned and I always get the same warning. I checked in the wiki but I installed the RF3 and the other jumpers correctly. The only one I didn't find anything about is the JP4.

When I run the application none of the LED's starts blinking, actually nothing happens.

I also checked the link you sent me and I am using the right SP.

Lizzy,

Is the LED on the PAN1315 board lit (it's a red LED) ?

Hi Gustavo,

I know it's been a while since my last reply...

Yes, the red LED on the PAN1315 board is on.

Elisabeth,

Is the Blue LED blinking while the red LED is solid? This would indicate the device is discoverable.

Hi Gustavo,

apart from the red LED only the LED labeled LED3 is on. No other LED is on or blinking.

Elisabeth,

Is the LED on the PAN13xx module ON? It's a red LED near the antenna.

Do you have jumpers in JP1, JP2 and JP3?

What power are you using? If it's batteries, could you try using a fresh pair?

Regards,
Gustavo

Hi Gustavo,

The red LED on the PAN13xx module is on. I have jumpers in JP1, JP2 and JP3.

I'm using USB-Power.
