2.4 Installing TI-RTOS for Use in IAR Embedded Workbench
You can install TI-RTOS for use with IAR Embedded Workbench as follows:
1. Install IAR Embedded Workbench for Texas Instruments MSP430 devices. See Section 1.4 for the
supported versions of IAR Workbench.
2. Download the Windows installer for TI-RTOS for MSP43x. For example,
tirtos_setupwin32_msp43x_2_##_##_##.exe
.
3. Run the downloaded file to install the full TI-RTOS product. You can install TI-RTOS in a standalone
directory. Installing in a directory path that contains spaces, such as
C:\Program Files (x86)
, is
not supported.
Note: TI-RTOS installs the core functionality of the XDCtools component if you have not already
installed the necessary version as part of a CCS installation. TI-RTOS places XDCtools in a separate
directory at the same level where you install TI-RTOS. For example, if the TI-RTOS installation
directory is
C:\ti\tirtos_msp43x_2_##_##_##
, the XDCtools directory will be
C:\ti\xdctools_3_31_##_##_core
.
Follow the instructions in Section 3.1.2 to complete the installation of the TI-RTOS examples. See
Section 3.2 to build the examples with the IAR compiler and to load and run the examples with IAR
Embedded Workbench.
2.5 Installing TI-RTOS as a Standalone Product
If you do not use Code Composer Studio, you can install TI-RTOS as a standalone product. In addition
to compiling and linking with the Texas Instruments Code Generation Tools, TI-RTOS includes support
for the IAR tool chain.
1. Download the Windows or Linux installer for TI-RTOS for the device family you use. For example,
tirtos_setupwin32_msp43x_2_##_##_##.exe
or
tirtos_setuplinux_msp43x_2_##_##_##.bin
.
2. Run the downloaded file to install TI-RTOS. You can install TI-RTOS in a standalone directory.

directory is located in
C:\ti\tirtos_msp43x_2_##_##_##
, the XDCtools directory will be in
C:\ti\xdctools_3_31_##_##_core
