MSP430F5529 on Mac OS X 10.10.5: Connection Fails #693

Closed rei-vilo closed 9 years ago

rei-vilo commented 9 years ago

LaunchPad MSP430F5529 version 1.5 on Mac OS X 10.10.4

Mac OS X 10.10.4 seems to have changed something compared on USB management with Mac OS X 10.10.3.

$ ls /dev/tty.* /dev/tty.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port /dev/tty.Bluetooth-Modem

$ lsusb Bus 020 Device 025: ID 0451:2046 Texas Instruments Hub Bus 020 Device 026: ID 2047:0013 2047 MSP Tools Driver Serial: 324F0C470E002200

The only solution so far is to disconnect the board and wait for 10 minutes, then replug. After a while, connection is lost again.

A sketch as simple as printing "." every second disconnects after 10 seconds and reboots.

Document MSP430F5529 LaunchPadTM Development Kit (MSP‐EXP430F5529LP) slau533c mentions restrictions for Mac two times:

2.2.2 eZ-FET lite Onboard Emulator

Mac OS X has a limitation that prevents it from enumerating composite USB devices that include a CDC interface. For this reason, the eZ-FET lite currently does not work with the default OS X.

and

3.6 Example: simpleUsbBackchannel

The simpleUsbBackchannel example runs on Windows and Linux PCs. However, it does not run on Macs, because the OS X does not support composite CDC devices. This means that OS X does not support the eZ-FET lite emulator or its backchannel UART. What's not clear to me is I haven't faced those limitations with previous release Mac OS X 10.10.2.

Any plan to provide a full support on Mac OS X?

rei-vilo commented 9 years ago

Same issue on Mac OS X 10.10.5.

I installed the 10.10.5 update and then proceeded with a clean install of Energia 16 and the provided drivers, EnergiaFTDIDrivers2.2.18 and MSP430LPCDC 1.0.3b.

Shall I consider switching back to Windows?

More updates about my LaunchPad MSP430F5529 rev 1.5. Each IDE on each operating system requires a firmware update with a specific release.

Wouldn't be nice to have all IDEs on all the operating systems aligned on the same firmware version? Just imagine how confusing for hobbyists and how unproductive for professionals!

  • CCS 6.1 on Windows

CCS asks for an update but I can't determine the version, as CCS acts as a blackbox.

Running msp430debug on different mspdebug from MSPWare_2_10_00_15, MSPWare_2_00_00_41, MSPWare_2_10_00_15 throws the same result.

I performed a full install of Mac OS X 10.10.5 and clean install of Energia 16. It solved the problem.

The drivers provided by Energia, CCS Mac and CCS Cloud are conflicting.

As I'm using the Energia framework, I'll refrain from installing CCS Mac or CCS Cloud.
