Hi all,
I'm too stupid to install the MSP-FET430UIF without(!) installing IAR
or CCE before. As I understood, the Crossworks 2.0 eval MSP430 DLL
Interface inside the Targets window should fit with the UIF without
any external installation while using the "$(StudioDir)/bin/
msp430.dll". After doubleclicking on the DLL interface:
"Can't connect to terget USB: Couldn' initialize device interface"
Similar things occur, when doubleclicking onto one of the UIF-targets.
Do I have to install an external driver for the UIF?
Where can I find it?
Thank you in advance!
Cheers, Timo

Right now I believe you need to install either of those to get the driver.
I don't think TI send out a separate driver.

Thanks Paul,
I got the drivers from a student, who installed the Kickstart. It
works in principle. Now crossworks(?) prompts: "Firmware upgrade
required" after doubleclicking on the DLL interface. I worry that
this will end in the same question. Therefore I'll ask TI for the
actual files by email.
Cheers, Timo

No, just right click on the FET target interface in the Targets window and
Select Upgrade Firmware.

Hi, I use MSP-FET430UIF too. I've installed only the FET430UIF libraries
from IAR, that is, the TIUSBFET drivers and then I use GNU mps430-jtag command
to program the chip by the next line:
msp430-jtag -l=TIUSB -e -r file.elf
I don't know if I can't attach files, but I'm attaching now the drivers for WinXP.
bye, Esteban

Did you download the *latest* build and you *did* right click on the UIF,
didn't you? Not the PIF?

Yes, if its timecode is 26.02.2008 03:26. I do not know a different
link than this: ...\msp430_crossworks_wavefront_win_i86.zip
Isn't it the right version:

Hey Paul, I tried all of course. Remember the short video at ATC-
closing. ;)
I will try to remove and reinstall Crossworks, downloaded the Zip
again today.
Thanks,

I found the driver updates from the ATC on my own laptop, and will
try them first.
