In the ICDI folder you will find all the drivers you will need for your board. The simplest way to get these installed is to plug in the Stellaris Launchpad (make sure you plug into the “debug” USB port and the switch is flipped to the right) , the automatic windows driver installation will fail,
1) Run the StellarisWare Installer as an admin (right click->run as admin) 2) Click next all the way through 3) Click Finish 4) If the system prompts you click “This Program Installed Correctly” 5) Congrats! You have now Installed StellarisWare, go check it out! (by default its at C:\Stellariware )
NOTE: if at any point you are having trouble or need more specific instructions please view the KEIL Quick start at /Documentation/Quickstart-Eval-Kit-Keil.pdf 0. Download the software from http://www.ti.com/tool/SW-EK-LM4F120XL Unzip the downloaded file Run the KEIL installer called mdk454 in Downloads/EK-LM4F120XL-KEIL-733/Software/Keil/ Say yes to the popup asking for permission to run Click ‘next’ all the way
So, you want to use the Stellaris Launchpad, that’s great! There are a couple of things to get out of the way first. NOTE: This is all assuming that you are installing using Windows, because it’s easier, getting things running on Mac / Linux are somewhat more complicated and guides for those will be coming
NOTE: this example is based on the LM3S1968 board, however the instructions could be easily modified to accomiddate any Stellaris packaged microcontroller by substituting 1968 for whatever board you may be using. Open Code Composer Studio Create New CCS Project File->New->CCS Project Fill in New Project Information NOTE: make sure these settings are correct;
C code is C code. The same C code will work in Keil or CCS with no modifications. The only issue is with inline assembly. Each IDE has its own syntax for handling inline assembly. Below is an example of how to write inline assembly for Keil and CCS. KEIL CCS
