Hello,
I think this must be a very simple question, but I am new to the uTCA concept and also to the C6678 EVM.
I have followed this older post: http://e2e.ti.com/support/dsp/c6000_multi-core_dsps/f/639/t/115240.aspx?PageIndex=4
It directs me to update my MSP430 to this newest code and then, I am assuming, I should be able to connect via SRIO to the MCH. Seems quite simple.
However, I get the distinct feeling that when I programmed it the NVRAM did not get programmed correctly. When I ask the chassis what FRU's are registered, I values that seem like they are defaults or even bad values that the MSP430 source code says should have been overwritten.
When I programmed it, I merely built the code and the loaded it via CCSv5 and the MSP-FET 430 UIF programmer. Is there a script or something that I was supposed to run to update the NVRAM. I feel like this was a bit simple and incorrect.
Thanks for you help! Please see below for some sample fru data.
Here is a sample of what my fru info was and my link info:
The FRU name comes up FRU Unknown - odd. But I can use FRU ID #11 to control the EVM's LEDs. So I know this is the right address.
(0x20, FRU# 00) (0xf0, 0x01) VT UTCA SHELF M4 (Active)
(0x82, FRU# 00) (0xc2, 0x01) VT UTCA CARRIER M4 (Active)
(0x82, FRU# 01) (0xf2, 0x61) SH FRU DEV1 M4 (Active)
(0x82, FRU# 02) (0xf2, 0x62) SH FRU DEV2 M4 (Active)
(0x82, FRU# 03) (0xc2, 0x61) VT UTCA MCMC M4 (Active)
(0x82, FRU# 04) (0xc2, 0x62) VT UTCA MCMC M4 (Active)
(0x82, FRU# 05) (0xc1, 0x61) VT AMC719 M4 (Active)
(0x82, FRU# 11) (0x00, 0x00) FRU Unknown M4 (Active)
(0x82, FRU# 40) (0x1e, 0x61) VT VT095 M4 (Active)
(0x82, FRU# 41) (0x1e, 0x62) VT VT095 M4 (Active)
(0x82, FRU# 50) (0x0a, 0x61) VT UTC010 M4 (Active)
(0x82, FRU# 79) (0xf3, 0x60) TELCO ALARM M4 (Active)
I can also use FRU ID#11 to get the AMC Point to Point results. These look like they should be correct - the SRIO is showing available. However the GUID is 0x1BAD1BAD... this is my first hint that something did not go right :)
