The eZ430-RF2500-SEH firmware is provided for both Code Composer Essentials and IAR
Embedded Workbench, and the user has the option to select the IDE of their choice.
However, the firmware is larger than IAR KickStart's 4KB limit, so a full license of IAR
Workbench is required to compile the application using IAR. An evaluation version of IAR is
available from http://supp.iar.com/Download/SW/?item=EW430-EVAL.
This document describes working with only Code Composer Essentials.
