Hi,

I am using the IAR Assembler to create .HEX files which I then program with
the very basic py_jtag command line JTAG programmer utility.

It's now time to do some assembler and/or C single stepping and debugging!

So ... what extra software, drivers etc do I need to load & debug code via
JTAG from the IAR screen?

Or will I need to move away from the IAR toolset to do this?

regards.

Hi Richard,

Time I said hello too I guess, being an Aussie myself (Melbourne) :-)
I guess your first step would be the ubiqutous flashing LED (your kickstart
should come with C example code).
Load in a C project, compile/build it, and then start C-spy debugger
to step through, or real time run the C code, and you're done.
Well, then actually all the fun starts.

btw, I've had my good share of weirdo field stuff too.
When I was 22, I worked as a civilian for the Belgian Navy at the NATO base
in
Zeebrugge. I was in charge of the HF crew that did maintenance on the whole
fleet.
One day in early January it was -32 degrees Celsius, and a Minesweeper came
in
with a faulty whip antenna on the bridge. I couldn't use gloves, and had to
stand on the
edge on top of the bridge while there was a really bad storm, trying to
fasten tiny lttle screws.
Geez, I'd never been that cold. We use to work on 10 kW Siemens HF
transmitter racks with
6 kV P/S. One wrong move and you're dead kind of thing.
We used to get "high-voltage hours" for having to work on live
equipment,
which accumulated
into days off. I'd have many great stories to tell :-)

Anyway,
all the best
Kris

For a good list of all your software options, go to the TI web site 
at:
http://focus.ti.com/mcu/docs/generalcontent.tsp?
familyId42&templateIdR46&navigationId482&path=templatedata/cm/m
cugen/data/msp430_3p_swtools

They don't show any prices, but they have links to all the 3-rd party 
vendors.

I've never used the Olimex board, but as far as I understand it is 
compatible with the IAR FET tool. So everything you need is in 
kickstart. Assemble in embedded workbench then click on the magnifying 
glass to launch C-Spy, that easy. C-Spy won't single step unless you 
turn off real time execution, and make sure that you disable GIE before 
trying to single step as the hardware timers on the board keep running.

Cheers
