Olimex MSP430-413STK + IAR

Hi!

I have a problem starting my testing board. IAR kickstart v.3 is installed fresh new and when I try to run a debug session through JTAG and Parallel port, I get a message: “Failed to write to 0xE000” .

What could be wrong?

The connection seems to be OK, because if I switch the device off, It doesn’t find it and I get another message.

Is there a support for Olimex boards out there?!

Thanks,

Tomaz

you problem seems to be with your IAR project configuration

use existing 413 project as template and write your code

TSvetan, thanks for your reply.

but I still can’t make my MSP430F413 started.

I can’t get rid of “Failed to write memory at 0xE000” and “Failed to erase main memory segment” messages.

I use the workspace and the simplest project that comes with a IAR Kickstart v.3 installation. I choose to try a P5.1 toggling project asm code just to see, if I can get started.

Build is done without errors or warnings.

Output is set to msp430F413. I checked the msp430f413.ddf file and corrected the access type of the flash memory 0E000-0FFFF to “RW”, but debuger still won’t write to flash.

This version of IAR is just recently published. Should I better run an older one, if it’s perhaps more tested?

Is it possible JTAG fuse is blown somehow?

Is there a way to read on-chip memory without writing a program with a debug session?

I will appreciate your help very much. Thanks in advance!
