I got MSP-FET430U5X100 which includes USB programmer and 100 pin target board. I'm using MSP430F5419A micro-controller and Code-composer studio v5.3. I'm learning serial communication via UART. When i connect my target board through USB programmer it is connected in COM port no. 26 . i downloaded and debugged example code of UART into microcontroller.
When the program is in running in debug mode, i can't use the port COM 26 in the terminal window software(Teraterm) to connect to the target board because it's already used.
* How to view the characters sent through UART in terminal window?
* Do i have to connect UART pins to computer seperately? or it's already there in MSP-FET430U5X100 (connection is through USB cable to JTAG header)?
