2.2 Software Installation

The user is expected to have the following:

• SimpleLink MSP432™ SDK
• SimpleLink CC3120 SDK (also referred to as the MSP432 Wi-Fi plug-in)
• SimpleLink CC3120 ServicePack. It is part of the SDK under
  <SDK install dir>/ tools/cc32xx_tools/servicepack-cc3x20
• UniFlash v4.x for flashing the device
• CCS Version 7.0.0 or later
• IAR Embedded Workbench Version 7.80.1 or later, for ARM
• Visual Studio 2015, download the Visual Studio Community package.
• FreeRTOSv9.0.0 – the SDK does not include FreeRTOS sources. The user is expected to download the FreeRTOS sources.

This tutorial assumes the packages are installed at the default location. The paths for these installations may be different, depending on the version of the software you downloaded. Regardless, users can manually define these paths without affecting the overall experience.

If FTDI drivers are not installed on your Windows PC, install the drivers when prompted by the SDK installer.
