Msp430F2274: How to use UART without interrupt?

[bettyxyz1028]

I know that for MSP430fg439, there is a way that u can transmit or receive data without using interrupt enable. ME can replace IE.

I try to find the same way in MSP430F2274, but i cant.

Is there any method to be in the UART mode in MSP430F2274 without interrupt? Where can i find this kind of sample code?

TKs in advance!

Hi,

It is call polling method.
Search the web for UART polling example.

Ultimately, you should use interrupt for UART.
It is a long term solution.
For a start, polling method would be good for training.

I decided to use interrupt....

But it doesnt work...

Everytime whn i select the ports, the transmission fails

It is likely to be your coding problem.
Perheps you should start with polling method.
After understand how it works,
migrate slowly to interrupt step by step.
Should not be difficult to debug if you
progress logically.

Comparing the 2, polling is easier to write and understand.
Interrupt is more robust and less problematic if
you write your codes properly.

Did you check the TI example code for 2274 ?

**broken link removed**

There are at least 7-8 UART examples (polling and interrupt)
