OLIMEX:
Marvm:in our lab we have 15 computers and on all of them is installed EW-MSP430 kickstart revision 3.42 and on all of them MSP430-JTAG-ISO and MSP430-JTAG-TINY are tested/works and are used daily.
If something doesn’t work on your computer, please check what other MSP430 software you have installed - from other customer reports I understand that Elprotronic software installed on same computer mix up the MSP430.dll paths .dlls and may cause such problem - reported by customer who after deleting Elprotronic soft and re-install of EW-MSP430 and our drivers managed to get it working, another issues I’ve read on Russian language forums is that same result may happend if you use “cracks” or keygens for IAR Workbench - it starts crashing.
We simply can’t reproduce the results written in this post - none of our computers make problems with none of our debuggers, so it’s very hard for me to give suggestion or advice.
Best regards
Tsvetan
Never had any problems with the elprotronic software if the install directions are followed… Their software alows the user to choose which interface they wish to use by a dll switcher dll… The best thing to do befiore installing ANY other jtag interface (anyting but ti) is to archive the current dlls, and trachk all dll installs… software like elprotonic and crossworks can easily work with multiple jtag interfaces… with the proper setup so can IAR software…
for automated programming its hard to beat the elprotronic software…
