4E4TH FOR THE MSP430G2553 on LaunchPad VERSION 0.34 - 30. Marz 2012 ======================================================== Forth for Education This version of 4E4TH for the TI Launchpad with MSP430G2553 is based on CamelForth MSP430 V0.3 that Bard Rodriguez has created for the MSP430F1611. Building on Windows: The project has been created using IAR Kickstart. To build the project, proceed as documented in readme.430. Add 4e-aLP430.s43 to the project. Instead of init430f1611.s43, and vecs430f1611.s43 use 4e-init430G2553.s43, and 4e-vecs430G2553.s43. Add all 4e-info files too. The free version of IAR can only program projects up to 4K. If the file is larger, you can use a BSL scripter tool like the FET-Pro430 (FET MSP430 Flash Programmer) by Elprotronic. To be able to use an external scripter tool, IAR must be configured to output the file in Intel Hex Format. Select the option "Output file override" under Project/Options/Linker/Output and "other output format = intel extended". This will create a file 4e4th.a43 using Intel Hex format in the folder Debug/Exe. This file can be programmed into the MCU using the FET-Pro430 tool. Building on Unix/Linux/MacOSX/xBSD: to be done / work in progress --- The reset procedure executes BOOT. If there is a valid application it will start. Else WIPE is executed. After executing SAVE the Forth state will survive a reset. Pressing and holding button S2 during reset will force a WIPE. This way 4e4th can be resurrected from the dead(lock).
