CCS/LAUNCHXL-F28069M: CCS

Part Number: LAUNCHXL-F28069M
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CONTROLSUITE, MOTORWARE, C2000WARE

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello! Sorry if this is a dumb question but I can't seem to find the solution:

I'm trying to program with CCS but I can't find the 'Target' F28069M. I've installed controlSUITE and motorware, i've updated CCS, but I just don't know where to go from here. 

If there's anything I can add that would help solve my problem, ill do whatever I can!

    Do you mean the Target device selection in the CCS New Project wizard? If so, you can just select one of the F28069 options. 

    A better option when working with C2000 devices though is to import an example from ControlSuite for the device you are working with, and use that as a starting point for your development. If you are new to CCS, the workshop here is a great resource for getting started. It is written for the F28027 Launchpad but the general instructions can be followed for other devices/launchpads as well (as long as you use the appropriate example for the specific device).

    If I have misunderstood your question, please let me know.

    If the above suggestion did not help resolve your issue, please provide additional details on what you mean by the above statement so we can point you to the right direction. When and where do you not find the target device?

  • Oh sorry! I thought I did reply to the post but I guess my connection failed!

    Well, the problem is that we have the Development Kit (www.ti.com/.../LAUNCHXL-F28069M) which is different than the 3 shown above. If I try to run CCS with either of those selected it says the 'CPU is not compatible with any target selected'.

    I also downloaded controlSUITE and c2000ware. We found the example code for the F28069M (with the 'M') but when we went under properties and found which target it was designed for, it says F28069 (without the 'M'). I'd like to show you a screenshot but ever since Friday, it has shown that the server isn't available? I tried reinstalling it, but still the same issue (on both the desktop app and through CCS resource explorer). 

    Any direction would be great, as we're getting a little behind on our project!

    It is fine to select the F28069 even for the F28069M Launchpad.

    Do you see the error when you click in the Debug (green bug) button, and is this the error you see?

    If so, that means that you do not have a target configuration file set up for the project. Please see this link for information on the target configuration file and how you can create one. When creating the file, select the Connection as Texas Instruments XDS100v2 USB Debug Probe and Device as F28069.

    Let us know if that helps.

  • That is the problem! Thank you so much for your help! I really appreciate it!
