3.2 Install the Software

Download one of the integrated development environments (IDEs) (see Section 3.1). IAR KickStart and CCS offer the required driver support to work with the MSP-EXP430 LaunchPad development kit onboard emulation. Once installed, the IDE should find the MSP-EXP430G2 LaunchPad development kit as USB:HID debugging interface. Now all is set for developing MSP430G2xx based application on the LaunchPad development kit.
