    Error Messages One of the following messages may show if JTAG communication is not established correctly: • If the MSP430 MCU to program can not be found, the message shown in Figure 5 appears. This problem can be caused by the PRGS430 not being connected to the hardware, the device not inserted or incorrectly inserted into the socket, or the device not powered.

    Operation www.ti.com PRGS430.DLL Description The PRGS430.dll is used to communicate with the MSP-PRGS430 hardware and the connected MSP430 MCU. The initialization of the PRGS430 should be done with this sequence: InitCom SetDeviceType SetVCC . InitTarget ..ReleaseTarget ReleaseCom Several examples showing how the DLL could be used are located in the DLL_Usage_Examples folder of the PRGS430 system.
  • Page 15 Example lFuncReturn = Erase(long:0xF000, long:0x1000, long:1) For some MSP430 family members (for example, MSP430F2xxx devices) portions of flash information memory are factory preprogrammed with calibration data. Depending on which method is used for erasing the flash memory, this calibration data may be erased. Should the calibration data be conserved, it must be read prior to the information memory erase or a flash erase method that does not affect the calibration data memory locations must be used.
  • Page 16 Example lFuncReturn = EraseFile("text.txt", long:0, long:0, NULL) For some MSP430 family members, for example MSP430F2xxx devices, portions of flash information memory are factory preprogrammed with calibration data.

    Hints These hints are useful for programming MSP430 MCUs or MSP430 MCUs on printed-wire boards (PWB). • All VCC pins of an MSP430 MCU are tied together and connected to the most positive terminal of the supply. • All VSS pins of an MSP430 MCU are tied together and connected to the most negative terminal of the supply.

  • Page 27: Programming Adapter Target Connector Signals

    Hardware www.ti.com Programming Adapter Target Connector Signals The target connector signals for the programming adapter ensure communication between the programming adapter and MSP430 MCUs and supply low energy to systems without extra supply sources. Figure 9 Figure 10 show the target connector signals for the programming adapter.

  • Page 28: Target Connector Signal Functions

    The programming procedure (handling of the SW) is described in Chapters 1 and 2 of this manual. • The connections from the MSP430 terminals must follow EMI rules, such as short lines and ground planes. If TMS line receives one negative pulse by EMI strike, the fuse current is activated (with fuse version 1.0).
