This section describes the steps needed to install your Segger J-Link 430 USB programming adapter so that CrossStudio can use it.

###### Installing the Drivers

Download and install the drivers necessary for the programming adapter from Segger’s web site using this link:

http://www.segger.com/jlink430_dll.html

Please note that the J-Link 430 programming adapter is only supported on Windows operating systems. Once you have installed the drivers, you can integrate support for the J-Link 430 adapter as described below.

###### Configuring CrossStudio for the J-Link 430

Open the zip archive and copy the MSP430 DLL file into the CrossStudio bin directory:

1. Copy the file MSP430.DLL into the CrossStudio bin directory as JLINK430.DLL so that it does not overwrite the existing MSP430.DLL file which is TI's parallel port FET driver.

Now that the files are copied, you can create a target interface that will use these DLLs.

1. Show the targets window using View > Targets.
2. In the Targets window, right click the empty part of the list view.
3. From the popup menu, click New Target Interface then Flash Emulation Tool (TI Driver).

You will see that a new Flash Emulation Tool target appears as the last entry in the target window. Next, rename the target interface to make it more easily recognizable:

1. Right click the new Flash Emulation Tool target interface
2. From the popup menu, select Rename.
3. Type “Segger J-Link 430 Programmer” into the text entry box.

Next, use the Segger J-Link 430 DLL rather than the parallel port DLL for this interface:

1. Right click the Segger J-Link 430 Programmer target interface.
2. From the popup menu, select Properties.
3. In the Properties window, select the Target Driver DLL Path property in the Connection group.
4. Change the property from “$(StudioDir)/bin/msp430.dll” to “$(StudioDir)/bin/jlink430.dll”.

You are now ready to use the Segger J-Link 430 target interface to program and debug your applications.
