Problem with reading eZ430-RF2500 module

ez430-rf2500

Hi All,

I am trying to set up an mspgcc environment for programming my eZ430-RF2500 module from TI.

I have some problems so I downloaded MSPFET and try to read the content with this tool but this tool always says:
21:55:54 Initialize...
21:55:55 Device: MSP430F2274. Info(0x1000-0x10FF), Main0x8000-0xFFFF)
21:55:55 Reading device memory..
21:55:57 Read failed. Synchronization error.

anybody can give me some help?

ez430 code examples

hi,

Are u using ur custom board or the board given with the tool

ez430 rf2500 project

I am using their small board eZ430-RF2500 that I get from the TI MSP430 day

mspgcc ez430

hi,

I got this same error when i inserted the board in the opposite way. So i suspect that u have connected the small board to usb fet in the reverse way

code composer ez430-rf2500

I have the device in the right way plugged in.

thanks very much!

mspfet synchronization error

Doesn't the EZ430-RF2500 kit come with compilers & demo software?
The eZ430-RF2500 is a complete wireless development tool for the MSP430 and CC2500 that includes all the hardware and software required to develop an entire wireless project with the MSP430 in a convenient USB stick.

I believe the support software is here:
**broken link removed**
Works for Code Composer & IAR.

And you can download IAR & CCE from here:

Correct it comes with this software but I want to use mspgcc compiler for programming it.

@ mobile-it

All I read on the Internet, it seems mspgcc-20070216 is buggy.

I got the kit yesterday and I will give it a try with Code Composer Essentials v3 - Free 16KB IDE https://focus.ti.com/docs/toolsw/folders/print/msp-cce430.html
It's brand new (29 Apr 2008)

Hi

thanks for your help.

I just installed codecomposer on my pc (v3.0) and it works very good. I have a blinking led now thanks for the support!


now I am going to work me into this RF solution!

Re: programming the ez430-rf2500

Hi Friend,

Here is the code for as your requirment..

#include <msp430.h>

int main(void) {
WDTCTL = WDTPW + WDTHOLD; // Stop watchdog timer
P1DIR |= BIT0; // Set P1.0 to output direction
P1DIR |= BIT1; // Set P1.1 to output direction
for(; {
volatile unsigned int i; // volatile to prevent optimization

P1OUT ^= BIT0; // Toggle P1.0 using exclusive-OR
P1OUT ^= BIT1; // Toggle P1.1 using exclusive-OR
i = 10000; // SW Delay
do i--;
while(i != 0);
}
}
