Bizare installatoin problem, no TI-RTOS for SimpleLink Wireless MCUs

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC3200, CC3200SDK

I am following the getting started user guide http://www.ti.com/lit/ug/swru376c/swru376c.pdf for CC3200.

When trying to compile ti_rtos_config, I am setting up the properties in the General/RTSC tab, and instead of having an option for

"TI-RTOS for SimpleLink Wireless MCUs" with "2.1.0.03" under it, i have instead "(unknown) [com.ti.rtsc.TIRTOSsimplelink]" with the part in square brackets in a faded font. It still has the "2.1.0.03" check box underneath, which I have checked.

When I compile ti_rtos_config, I am getting an error related to this that says :

"Buildfile generation error occurred..

Product 'com.ti.rtsc.TIRTOSsimplelink' v2.1.0.03 is not currently installed and no compatible version is available. Please install this product or a compatible version.

Build stopped.."

I tryed uninstalling everything and starting again from scratch. It cost about 4 hours and got the same result.

  • Hi Bill,

    What CCS Version are you using? If you are using a lower CCS version, I suggest you use the latest CCS version instead.

  • I am using 6.1.2.00015. I updated the software using help/check for updates.
  • Howdy Bill,

    "2.1.0.03" is an old version of TI-RTOS.  Try downloading the newest version-- "TI-RTOS for CC32XX" from the CCS Apps Center (In CCS, select View, then CCS Apps Center).  After doing this, return to the General/RTSC tab, and make sure that the latest version of "TI-RTOS for CC32XX" is selected.  Lastly, try rebuilding the code, and verify this answer if you're question is resolved :)

  • Thanks for your help,

    That didn't work, but it might have shed light on the problem. The version I have installed was installed through the CCS APP Center. Keep in mind that this is a fresh install of CCS, so no remenants from old code are left behind.

    If I go to the CCS App Center now, the TI-RTOS for CC32XX is listed as up to date.

    Could it be that there is an error in the versioning so that fresh installs somehow think the older version of TI-RTOS-CC32XX is the latest?

  • Also, I failed to mention, I also installed TI-RTOS-MSP43XX when at the same time. Could the problem be an incompatability where I can't have both products installed at the same time? I will do a complete wipe and reinstall again, but this time leave off any MSP430 stuff and do the MSP430 development on a different machine.
  • I just did a 3rd complete install. I uninstalled all TI software and CCS software from windows control panel. I completely deleted C:/TI. I completly deleted my project dir. Then reinstalled everything. This time, when installing the CC3200SDK, I did not install any of the service packs. On previous installs, I had assumed previously that the service pack was an upgrade for the SDK since it was on the same page. This may have been the problem all along.
    When installing code composer, I also did not install any MSP43XX processor options
    With this install, when I got to the properties of the ti-rtos-config, I had the option of the TI-RTOS for CC3200, with version 2.16.0.08. Bizarly, it also still had the greyed out "(unknown) [com.ti.rtsc.TIRTOSsimplelink]". After building all the projects, this option misteriously went away.

    I am thinking that the guide needs to be updated a bit. There are a few name changes, and a few things need to be clarified.
  • Hmm, downloading the service packs in addition to the CC3200 SDKs should not have caused an issue. Likewise, downloading TI RTOS for MSP43XX shouldn't be an issue. Thanks for pointing out your confusion--we'll work to bring the guide up to speed. Thanks!
