Figure 11. LaunchPad LED Indicators
This is sufficient to setup the LaunchPad to interact with the EVM. If using CCS to do firmware
development, continue the following steps:
4. Download
5. Extract the
TS3A227E_GUI_Fimware.zip
to any folder.
Example:
C:\Users\
USER
\Documents \TS3A227E
6. Open Code Composer Studio and create a new workspace. Select the
Project
drop-down menu and
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 the
Finish
button and select
debug
launch
to load the code to the MSP430G2553 microcontroller. Once completed, disconnect the USB
cable from the LaunchPad.
7. CCS can also be used as a firmware development/experimentation platform and the EVM/GUI will
work while using the debugging functionality of Code Composer Studio.
8. If the LaunchPad is running and the TS3A227E-EVM daughter board is disconnected, the I
2
C
communication fails. Pause the debugger, reset the MSP430, and then rerun the code.
