msp432logger

msp432logger is a high-speed multi-sensor data logging platform based on the TI MSP-EXP432P401R Launchpad eco-system, storing sensor data to an SD card. msp432logger is in active development.

msp432logger is developed as an open source project and uses the permissive business-friendly BSD 2-Clause License, although included third-party code may be licensed under the terms of a different license that takes precidence.

The goal of the msp432logger project is develop a superior high-speed multi-sensor data logger, providing higher sensor data bandwidth, larger data storage capacity, and lower power consumption. The data logger uses current IoT (Internet of Things) protocols and technologies, and a web GUI is developed as part of the msp432logger project.

The target platform consists of:

• TI MSP-EXP432P401R LaunchPad.
• TI BOOSTXL-SENSHUB BoosterPack.
• 43oh SDCardReader (with modified msp432 port).
• Newark BOOSTXL-BATTPACK.

The msp432logger project contains third-party code from:

• TI MSPWare
• TI TivaWare
• TI GUI Composer
• MSP432Launchpad (port of Elm-Chan FatFS)

Getting Started

It is assumed a Windows development environment is used with TI Code Composer 6 (CCS) and TortoiseSVN. If you intend to authenticate to Sourceforge using ssh, it is assumed you are using PuTTY/Pageant. It is also assumed your target hardware meets current requirements.

1. Checkout code somewhere convenient (e.g. your Desktop) using either svn+ssh protocol (svn+ssh://sourceforge_username@svn.code.sf.net/p/msp432logger/code/trunk) or https protocol (URL: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/msp432logger/code/trunk).

2. Start CCS and import the code you checked-out from Sourceforge as a CCS project. Specify that files NOT be copied to your workspace.

3. Build the project and debug on target hardware like any other project.

Issue Tracking

Issues (and project milestones) are tracked in the msp432logger Tickets tool.

Communication Channels

The official communication channel is the msp432logger Discussion tool.

Project Documentation

Project documentation is maintained in the map432logger Wiki.

Developer Guidelines

All development is currently in the trunk.

• Check-out the msp432logger code trunk.
• Edit/update/merge/check-in......

Please solicit discussion on changes you are considering, and create and reference a ticket when checking in code.

Third-party code may be included in the msp432logger, licensed under a different license whose license terms take precidence. For example, some I2C device driver code is based on code provided by TI in TivaWare sensorlib, and can only be executed on a TI microcontrollers (see "LICENSE TI TivaWare sensorlib").

Support

If you require assistance:

• Update your working space (i.e. your local CCS project).
• Search the msp432logger ticket system.
• Review the msp432logger wiki.
• Create an msp432logger ticket for a specific problem or symptom.
• Solicit discussion in the msp432logger discussion system.

If you create a ticket, try to include answers to the following questions:

• What are you trying to achieve?
• What symptoms are you experiencing? Why do the symptoms represent a problem?
• Which commit of msp432logger are you using?
• Include as an example the simplest code segment or sequence of operations that results in the symptoms you are reporting.
