1.16 Hardware Installation, MSP-FET430PIF
Follow these steps to install the hardware for the MSP-FET430PIF tools:
1. Use the 25-conductor cable to connect the FET interface module to the parallel port of the PC. The
necessary driver for accessing the PC parallel port is installed automatically during CCS or IAR
Embedded Workbench installation. Note that a restart is required after the CCS or IAR Embedded
Workbench installation for the driver to become active.
2. Use the 14-conductor cable to connect the parallel-port debug interface module to a target board, such
as an MSP-TS430xxx target socket module. Module schematics and PCBs are shown in Appendix B.
1.17 Hardware Installation, MSP-TS430xxx, MSP-FET430Uxx, FET430F6137RF900,
EM430Fx1x7RF900
Follow these steps to install the hardware for the MSP-FET430Uxx and MSP-TS430xxx tools:
1. Follow steps 1 and 2 of Section 1.15
2. Connect the MSP-FET430PIF or MSP-FET430UIF debug interface to the appropriate port of the PC.
Use the 14-conductor cable to connect the FET interface module to the supplied target socket module.
3. Ensure that the MSP430 device is securely seated in the socket and that its pin 1 (indicated with a
circular indentation on the top surface) aligns with the "1" mark on the PCB.
4. Ensure that the two jumpers (LED and VCC) near the 2×7-pin male connector are in place. Illustrations
of the target socket modules and their parts are found in Appendix B.

1.19 Important MSP430 Documents on the Web
The primary sources of MSP430 information are the device-specific data sheet and user's guide. The
MSP430 website (www.ti.com/msp430) contains the most recent version of these documents.
PDF documents describing the CCS tools (CCS IDE, the assembler, the C compiler, the linker, and the
librarian) are in the msp430\documentation folder. A Code Composer Studio specific Wiki page (FAQ) is
available, and the Texas Instruments E2E Community support forums for the MSP430 and Code
Composer Studio v5 provide additional help besides the product help and Welcome page.
PDF documents describing the IAR tools (Workbench C-SPY, the assembler, the C compiler, the linker,
and the librarian) are in the common\doc and 430\doc folders. Supplements to the documents (that is, the
latest information) are available in HTML format in the same directories. A IAR specific Wiki Page is also
available.
