4.5 Hardware Installation Using CCS Cloud

CCS Cloud is web-based IDE that allows you to create, edit, and build CCS and Energia projects. After a project is successfully built, it can be downloaded and run on the connected LaunchPad or any other debug probe. Basic debugging features, like setting breakpoints or viewing values of target variables are now supported.

CCS Cloud can be used with the local debug probe connected to the PC through USB. To support this configuration, install the "CCS Cloud browser extension", and download and install the "TI Cloud Agent Application". For more details, see the CCS cloud documentation at processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/TI_Cloud_Agent.

After the successful Agent installation, download the application by clicking the Flash or Debug button in CCS Cloud.
