Mike, I've never used CCS, but use IAR since it does unlimited size
assembler for free.
I don't know what an 24F169 is, but assume you mean the MSP430F169. What
is your board setup? are you using the FET board with ZIF socket or an
EVK of some kind?
Can you communicate with the device via JTAG? it seems not if you can't
download the blinky LED routine.
I don't know of any reference books on the compilers other than the
vendors, and the IAR one comes free. I is Ok I guess if you haven't used
an assembler before, or an IDE, but I've never done more than glance at
it as I find the IDE (mostly) quite intuitive, and, where not intuitive
obvious once you raise HELP.
To allow for the blinky LED program running on different parts you will
need to load the right header file.
The sequence I use is:-
New workspace.
Create new project as asm.
Then delete the provided asm base file and provide your own. via PROJECT
- ADD FILE
I usually call mine xx_SHELL.S43.
I have SENT A COMPLETE PROJECT BASED ON THE 2013 TO YOUR PRIVATE EMAIL.
tHIS PROGRAM IS A BIT LIKE THE BLINKER BUT IT was done for a friend to
show him just how fast and short you could generate pulses on an MSP430,
so scope needed to view it, or increase the 2 constants until the LED
becomes visible (an excercise in checking LED visibility parameters too.
You WILL need to change the included header file to match the part you
are using. If you have an SBW dongle laying around it will run directly
on that. In fact as long as the port addresses are correct, it will run
on any MSP430 part, as it is very basic.
