Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2510

Hi everyone,

I just buy the cc1110 mini developement kit and I got a very bad suprise when I try IAR, this software don't even allow you to scroll with your mouse wheel !!!

Worst than that, the kickstart version don't even allow you to compile the default software they send with the chip ! And since this software just suck, I don't want to pay for it.

What should I do ? I'am stuck with a completly non-fonctional devellopement kit , wow !

    I responded to your later post before I saw this one.

    I do not under stand the scroll wheel issue, mine works with IAR

    See page 21/26 in the following document. http://focus.ti.com/lit/ug/swru236a/swru236a.pdf for the following information: "The CC1110 Mini Development Kit 868-915 MHz and CC2510 Mini Development Kit benefit from an extended code size limit in the IAR Embedded Workbench for 8051 version 7.51A and above. A 16kb “SimpliciTI-mode” will be activated by passing the command line option ‘--ks_version’ to the linker (project->options->linker->extra options)."   This will solve the size limitation.

     Also review the Defined Symbols as shown below.

    Hi,

    I use Embedded Workbench 7.50 for a 8051 project we have that is completely separate to the TI DSP projects we have.

    I get on fine with it, even the mouse wheel works in the editor.

    For me it works just as well on the 8051 projects as CCSv3 does on the DSP projects (I would actually prefer to use CCSv4 but for various reasons we're stuck with CCSv3).

    Unfortunately I don't know anything about the development kit you're using so I can't help with specifics.

    HTH,

    Matt
