CCS/DLP4710EVM-LC: How can I use JTAG to upload MSP430 code to DLP4710 EVM-LC

Part Number: DLP4710EVM-LC Tool/software: Code Composer Studio Hi TI, I asked a question a while ago regarding Cypress chip on 4710 EVM-LC can not be detected by GUI and believed the MSP430 code might be corrupted. I bought a JTAG fromcompany and have searched a guide to upload the code using JTAG but could not found a clear clue. Could anyone help me or point me a link? Thanks! Derlin

Hi Derlin, You need to install the Code composer studio for building the MSP430 SW code. MSP430 SW is available at evm home page : <secret URL>/tool/DLP4710EVM-LC You can connect MSP430 JTAG programmer to EVM and using code composer tool you can build and download the firmware.

Hi Navneet, I already have CCS 8.7 and DLP4710 MSP430 code (PICO-FLA7-PAD3005-TI-EVM-Modify-Devasys) in my computer. But I heard I need to setup JTAG while installing CCS. Is that true? I don't have JTAG experience. Thanks! Derlin

Hi Derlin, You need not to have the JTAG at the time of installation. You can connect the JTAG now with your PC and EVM. Open code composer studio -> import the project in code composer studio from the MSP430 code -> build -> run. Let me know if you see any issue.
