5.2.1 Opening the Project

The "source" folder structure is shown in Figure 5-4.

GUID-BB2DB441-2754-47F9-8406-6A5FB99A1219-low.gif Figure 5-4 Source Folder Structure

The folder "emeter-ng" contains multiple project files. For this application, the emeter-6736.ewp project file is to be used. The folder "emeter-toolkit" has corresponding project file emeter-toolkit-6736.ewp. Choose only the projects that have the succeeding terms 6736 for this application. For first time use, it is recommended that both the projects be completely rebuild.

  1. Open IAR Embedded Workbench.
  2. Find and load the project emeter-toolkit-6736.ewp.
  3. Rebuild all.
  4. Close the existing workspace and open the main project emeter-6736.ewp.
  5. Rebuild all and load this on to the MSP430F6736, which is shown in Figure 5-5.
