CCS6 DSK5510 Wownt Connect

If you are using the TMS320VC5510 DSK, then you should not use "ezDSP onboard USB emulator". There is only a 14-pin JTAG emulator on the C5510 DSK.

Regards.

Sorry I must have confused the situation. I have been using the DSK5510 with onboard emulator for years

http://www.spectrumdigital.com/product_info.php?&products_id=108

"Embedded USB JTAG controller with plug and play drivers, USB cable included"

What option should I be using to use the onboard JTAG via USB on the PCB?

Other comments on this forums say: "Spectrum Digital DSK-EVM-eZdsp onboard USB Emulator"

BTW: thanks for the quick response.

Also, where do I add *.gel scripts in this new enviroment. Ive search google but found nothing. The closest I found was a spectrum digital install guide with a tab I dont seem to have in debug mode. I presume they are still supported as the initialisation script in ti\ccsv6\ccs_base\emulation\boards\dsk5510\gel

For the moment I have just added it to the project files but Ive no idea if this is correct, although Im not there yet.

Sorry. There is USB on-board emulator supported. Is there any reason to use CCS6.0.1? I have only CCS5.5.0 installed. I have to spend more time on this.

Regards.

Only becuase it was the latest so I assumed most supported/bug fixes/development time (and it takes a while to download large files here).

I assume Im doing something stupid as I read a post on here, which I cant find now, where the guy said he had it running (problems with something else). So it didnt help but seemed to suggest CCS 6 and the DSK5510 works.

Aside: gel script for anyone finding this post and wondering.

Click on DSK5510.ccxml

Its specified under advanced, look to the right of the JTAG chain config and its in a browse box:

E.g. ..\..\emulation\boards\dsk5510\gel\dsk5510.gel

Something else I should mention is that I installed the driver from \dsk5510\specdig\xds510usb
 
from the drivers on spectrum digitals website: 

http://c5000.spectrumdigital.com/dsk5510/files/dsk5510_setup.exe

I did look for drivers in the CCS 6 install but couldnt find any.

It would be great if when the user interacted with *.ccxml dialog, a console window showed what was happening. The problem with just graying out buttons is that users dont have a clue whats going on. Currently Im trying to work out what the problem is via ti\ccsv6\ccs_base\common\uscif\dbgjtag

If you could test CCS6 with the board (or another DSK from spectrum digital) to see if it works out the box I would be grateful.

I found the note in C:\tools\ti\ccsv6\ccs_base\emulation\specdig\xds510usb

So Ive reinstalled the device drivers for the board from: C:\Program Files\SpectrumDigital\Emulation\Drivers\i386

This hasnt made a difference. The basic problem is the USB enumeration box doesnt appear which I presume is why the C55xx_0: Error initializing emulator error appears.

Ive verified the board is still OK by running the 5510DSK Diagnostics from DSK5510 installed files. This still runs and reports all tests passed.

For some reason, and all I did was reset the board which Ive done many times before, I get:

C55xx_0: GEL Output: Gel StartUp Complete.
C55xx_0: File Loader: Data verification failed at address 0x00FFFF00 Please verify target memory and memory map.
C55xx_0: GEL: File: C:\src\workspaceccs6\fec\Debug\test.out: a data verification error occurred, file load failed.

This is using the very simple example. Why is nothing ever simple...

Now all working. I believe what may have happened is that the old driver could have been in use until I reset the board. Thats the last significant thing Ive done since resetting and as Im supplying power via a power supply, the board wouldnt have been reset during the reboot after the driver change. Not sure how this would have changed some state on the board as I would have expected the change to effect PC side only. 

So INSTALL DRIVERS FROM C:\Program Files\SpectrumDigital\Emulation\Drivers\

I looked around the CCS6 install and couldnt find the drivers so assumed the drivers from the website would suffice. 

I just hacked the linker error from some previous code:
