Hardware Hands On

• Verify board configuration• Jumpers are correct• Plugged into the computer

• Launch Energia• Run the example, File – Example – Basics – Blink• LED on the CC3200 should now be blinking• Let’s quickly look at the code

Now you are a hardware ninja!

FYI … how to configure your personal development system• http://energia.nu/pin-maps/guide_cc3200launchpad/

• Have a CC3200, a micro USB cable, and a jumper wire

• Install Energia version 15

• Verify all jumper connections

• Update the CC3200 firmware (optional)

• Install the CC3200 drivers, Allow the drivers to load … completely

• Connect the CC3200 to your computer using the USB cable

• Launch Energia

• Set your device COM port (Tools – Serial Port – COMxx)

• Select your hardware (Tools – Board – CC3200)

• Select an example (File – Example – Basics – Blink) and “Upload” it 9
