MSP430G2553 with 8x8 LED Booster Pack by Olimex

Hi, I am a newbie. I'm currently doing my final project for college. I use MSP430G2553 and 8x8 LED BoosterPack by Olimex.

I have been learning the example code in Energia (the one that produces sine wave and scrolling text) but I haven't figure out how to send data to the booster pack. I only succeed to control the buzzer via push button.

 

I have read the manual & schematic for the booster pack. I figured that I need to use three ports to control the LED; CLOCK, LATCH, and DATA ports. However, I couldn't understand the code part that sends data to the LED. I have been trying to light up a single LED in that 8x8 matrix but haven't succeeded, yet.

 

Could anyone give me advice or step-by-step tutorial on how to do it? I really am new to this world--it's been less than a month when I started to 'make friends' with micro controller. I have read the MSP430 manual and am able to control the LED & push button in the LaunchPad, but not the booster pack.

 

I am looking forward to hearing from any of you. This will be a great help. Thanks :)

 

Regards,

Nisrina Rahmah
