Hello all,
I am hoping a TI employee may be able to direct me to a download of ti_cgt_msp430_3.2.1_setup_win32.exe
I have the unenviable task of maintaining someone else's code that was developed for CCSv4 using MSP430 compiler version 3.2.1.
I first noticed the issue that I could not communicate with an external EEProm through the prior engineer's bit-banged I2C interface (why it wasn't set up using the I2C module built in, I'll never know). After troubleshooting I discovered that the code, when compiled in CCSv4 using an ancient laptop, could "magically" communicate with the EEProm.
After installing CCSv5 on that same laptop I discovered that version of CCS made all the difference.
When the code is compiled in CCSv5 it will not communicate with the EEProm, but when compiled with CCSv4, it will.
After digging into the problem thinking header files might be to blame and hard coding paths so that both CCS's pulled in the same headers and finding no change to my end result, I am now looking into the compiler versions.
I will soon try to make CCSv5 use Compiler version 3.2.1, once a unit is available for test, but as I cannot find a download of ti_cgt_msp430_3.2.1_setup_win32.exe, I may discover the root cause of my problem without a viable solution.
My end goal is to be able to use my (not the ancient) laptop to compile the last engineer's code using CCSv5 and Compiler version 3.2.1. Any and all help is appreciated.
