CCS: Unable to start debug "Hello World" program on C6A8168EVM... I get device in reset state errors...

Hi TI Community,

                               I just started with my brand new C6A8168 EVM + with 8 GB SD Card (Linux Kernel 2.6.37) and the EVM came with a display device(a portable DVI connected LCD display). I'm using CCSv5.2 to program/debug. I'm using XDS100v2 JTAG connector.

What I would like to do is to display "Hello World" on the portable display.

The problem I'm facing is this:

1. (Before I added the GEL File to Target Configuration)

    Error connecting to the target: (Error -1180 @ 0x0) Device is held in reset. Take the device out of reset, and retry the operation. (Emulation package 5.0.635.0)

    -

2. (After I added the GEL File to target configuration evm816x.gel)

    Error connecting to the target: (Error -1180 @ 0x0) Device is held in reset. Take the device out of reset, and retry the operation. (Emulation package 5.0.635.0)

    

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Vikram

    Vikram,

    Please have a look and follow the steps at this wiki page to connect to the DSP core on the C6A8168.

    Aarti, I followed the wiki and other threads and I was able to bring the DSP out of reset mode in a No-Project-Debug-Mode.

    After that I started a new Hellow Word project, included a target configuration and inside the target configuration for the C-A8 core I included the GEL file.

    Now when I debug I'm facing a new problem. When loading process starts to load the HelloWorld.out, after the GEL file startup sequence, I get the errors as below:

    Help!
    


    

    Thank you

    Vikram,
    

    Try starting the debug session in the same manner as you did before (non-project debug session). Right-click on the Cortex A8 core in the Debug view and connect to it. Then go to Run->Load->Load Program and browse to the .out file to load it (assuming the project/.out file is built for Cortex A8).

    Aarti,
    

    I did that. Now I try to load CortexA8 core with HelloWorld.out(also built for C-A8) in a non-project debug session. It did not succeed, kindly look at the errors:
