Questions regarding TIWI UB2 (with CC2564 )+ Bluetopia + MSP430F5438

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2564, MSP430F5438, CC256XMSPBTBLESW, MSP430BT5190

Hello Ti,
I have seen the link below which describes SPPLE demo on MSP430 connected with the PAN1326 (which contains CC2564 as the controller and Radio module )
Following are some of the questions that i have regarding the demo.
1.Is there any video link available to see the entire demo (SPPLE running on MSP430 connected with PAN1326)? 
2.What is the OS Flashed in to the MSP430 to perform the SPPLE demo ? or it is a OSAL implementation ? 
3.If i want to buy a development kit from Ti , which one i should prefer ? the kit should contain two MSP430F5438 experiment boards and the two PAN1326 and the entire software tools .There are so many links in the Ti
which is very confusing ! Please suggest one entire kit or I should go for some seperate order for experiment boards and the PAN1326 ? 
4.My customer is interested in the TIWI UB2 ( which contains CC2564 as the controller) from LSR , so instead of PAN1326 if I go with TIWI UB2 ,will the software 
(CC256XMSPBTBLESW: Stonestreet One BT+BLE Stack on MSP430 v1.3 from the link http://www.ti.com/tool/stonestreetone-bt-sdk ) will work straight away ?
  
5.If it does not work straight away , my understanding is ,I have to modify the HCI layer(UART configuration ) to make it work. what are all the other things that i need to modify?
6.I hope that i donot require the entire bluetopia stack source code, bluetopia.a (library from stonestreet one in the downloaded software )is sufficient ? All i need to modify is only the codes in HCI or other codes ?
7.Or is there any Development kit available from Ti for TIWI UB2 ? Because i cannot able to see the TIWI UB2 picture in the Ti's website as i can able to see for PAN1326.

    Hello hubby,

    Good questions,

    1. See first video at ti.com/bluetooth on top right corner.

    2. NoOS, it uses a simple scheduler

    3. EXP board is good for TIWI UB2 evaluation: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/CC256X_MSP:EXP430F5438#Kit_Content

    4. No change is needed in software, should work as is.

    5. All the modules have same interface.

    6. Yes, the library is in binary, only application layer is needed to change.

    7. Please see our modules page: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/CC256x_Modules#LSR_Module

    Let me know if there's anything else.

    Thanks for your immediate reply.
    Please find my replies in order for the questions i have asked.
    1.Video Demo is Great.
    2.You have confirmed that is not running any OS.
    3.This answer leads to three more questions ! 
    3-a) In the link you have sent  http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/CC256X_MSP:EXP430F5438#Kit_Content , again it contains so many part numbers. 
    In the section "MSP430F5438 Experimenter Board " .It is mentioned as follows.
    "The MSP430F5438 Experimenter board is a development platform for the latest generation MSP430 MCUs. In this MSP430BT5190+CC256x Platform,
    the MSP430F5438 Experimenter Board acts as the host which runs the Ethermind Bluetooth stack and leverages the RF1 and RF2 connectors to 
    communicate to the PAN1323ETU board via UART".
    May i know why it is MSP430BT5190 ? So is it like MSP430F5438 experiment board will come with default MSP430F5438 controller and if we want to change it to
    MSP430BT5190 ,I can un mount MSP430F5438 and I can mount the MSP430BT5190 for its evaluation ??
    3-b) In the same link in the section "SW Architecture"
    "CC256x Bluetopia Stack".It is mentioned as follows in the third point.
    "Please refer to the [MSP430BT5438+CC256x Developer's Guide] for more information."
    Here MSP430BT5438 ? May i know what is this part number ? Is this and MSP430F5438 controller are same ?
    3-c) The document shows that Ethermind Bluetooth stack is running on MSP430F5438 experiment board connected with PAN1323 ,but i want to run Bluetopia stack from Stone street one.
    So should i have to choose PAN1326 connected with MSP430F5438 experiment board instead of PAN1323ETU (which has MSP430BT5438 controller ,if my guess in the previous question is correct)
    4. Thanks for this answer
    5. Thanks for this answer
    6.May i know why the Application layer needs to change ,if want to run the same SPPLE demo in the link http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/CC256x_MSP430_Bluetopia_Basic_SPP_SPPLEDemo_APP  
    7.Thanks for the answer.
    The entire Idea is to run the SPPLE (Bluetooth Low energy ) demo on the Bluetopia stack from SS1(Not the mindtree's stack) on MSP430F5438 as the host and the CC2564 as the controller. The customer wants the controller to be PAN1323 or PAN1326 as of now. So once i got the kits from Ti , the SPPLE demo on Bluetopia should work straight away. Later if I  want to change to TIWIUB2 ,with minimal modification in the SDK, the same demo should work. Please help me to choose the kits.

    3. Please disregard the BT5190 and MindTree stack, it is not supported anymore, I have updated the wiki accordingly.

    6. Nothing needs to be changed to run out-of-the-box demos. I was just mentioning application layer is easy to modify to suit the customer's specific application.

    The link for the dev kit can be found here: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/CC256x_Modules#LSR_Module

    Should work out of the box same as PAN13xx kit.

    Thanks again for your humble reply.
    But as of now i want to use only PAN13xx.
    Please confirm that i have to choose PAN1326 which supports Buletopia not the PAN1323 which is running on Ethermind which is no longer supported by Ti. 
    So my Order will be ,
    1. Two MSP430F5438 experiment boards.
    2. Two PAN1326. 
    I already have the MSP430 JTAG to flash the exp boards.
    Anything else i have to buy ?

    Hi,

    The hardware is irrelevant of the software. All of the Bluetooth kits containing the CC256x should work with the Bluetopia software.

    2 EXP boards and PAN1323 kit should be enough for evaluation: http://www.ti.com/tool/pan1323emk

    or a lower cost option would be the ez430-rf256x kit: http://www.ti.com/tool/ez430-rf256x

    Hi Zahid,

    I am using MSP430 Board with Tiwi uB2 . I have connected Tiwi - uB2 with RF1 and RF2 connector. But I am not getting any output on serial port and shut down  LED on Tiwi - uB2 is keep blinking. I am using V1.4 R2 codes with CCS V5.5.

    Regards,
