Hello all,
Despite the post claiming it's for CCS, it's actually for "Uniflash", but the E2E doesn't give me that option...
I am trying to learn the CC3120 device from the starting line. So I purchased the CC3120 Boost, CC31XXEMUBOOST, and the MSP432P401R launchpad.
Then I consulted document SWRU467A The start guide.
(Let me preemptively say, when people start asking "why did you install that component?? Why are you using that document?? What is wrong with you??" It's because TI's web pages listed those docs for the devices I was looking for, and they don't explain anything comprehensively)
As is typical of TI instructions and support, I can't get past the first step... Bit's pretty much broken from the starting line.
I know I installed the drivers during one of the 4 installations, because I see 4 COM ports when the EMU is plugged in.
Okay, so far.... Until.... The document tells me to use Uniflash 4.x...
There isn't one. There is 3.x and 5.x
What IS this tool anyway? What does it do? Why is it needed?? More questions that TI doesn't give any useful training. Simply listing "supported devices" under "Description" isn't really very bright...
Version 5 says "see below". And my device is listed as supported. But in version 5, when I press "detect" it doesn't recognize my device. It says Not found...
And version 3 UI is nothing like version 5, so the guide is useless for it. Since I have no idea what the Uniflash app is supposed to do (besides install drivers for dozens of chipsets that I am not using), I have no idea what the settings on it are supposed to be.
I have installed the SDK's, and again, typical of TI, the tutorials tells me to look into SDK folders that do not exist.
So my question: Would someone please be kind enough to point me to the correct startup material that actually matches the tools and software TI publishes?
