click on “Import existing CCS/CCE Eclipse Project.” Select Browse on the “Select-search directory”
option and select the location where the source code is stored. Click "Finish" and then select “debug
launch” to load the code to the MSP430G2553 microcontroller. Once completed, disconnect the USB
cable from the LaunchPad.
6. After completing steps 1–5, to load the code at any point for any reason, simply open the workspace
that was created. Ensure that the source code is the active project and the LaunchPad is connected
through USB. Then select “debug launch” to load the code.
