Hi,
Thank you for trying to help.
I'm trying to implement RTC on 5438 and am looking at TI's RTC
workaround code that has set time functions only (no increment).
Do I need to update RTC manually somehow (if so how), or RTC supposed to update
automatically when set up correctly?
Thank you in advance,
Eugene

What RTC workaround code are you referring to? Can you provide a link
to it, or better yet, include the section of it that you don't
understand in your reply?
Have you read the chapter on the Real-Time Clock in the MSP430x5xx
Family User Guide? (http://www.ti.com/lit/pdf/slau208). If you frame
your question in the context of a section of the user guide that
you're not understanding or stuck on, that'll likely help us better
understand what you're trying to do or what you don't understand yet.
Right now I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. A "workaround"
shouldn't be necessary unless there's some hardware errata that you're
trying to address.

I think the OP was referring to RTC_Workaround.zip inside SLAC166L.zip from
TI.
(Note that the OP disappeared.)
