Setup Instructions

For existing users that are using FSP with e² studio

FSP versions of 2.0.0 and later require a minimum e² studio version of 2020-10.

If you have already installed a previous FSP release that included e² studio then you can download the packs separately. These are available for download under the Assets section for each release. There is a zipped version, FSP_Packs_<version>.zip, and an installer version, FSP_Packs_<version>.exe.

For new users that are using FSP with e² studio

1. Download the FSP with e² studio Installer from the Assets section of the current release.
2. Run the installer. This will install the e² studio tool, FSP packs, GCC toolchain and other tools required to use this software. No additional installations are required.
