Yeah i see that they dont work on linux environment :))

So can you explain me how can i work with that codes or  I am gonna use Angstrom or Ubuntu on my Beagleboard with OMAP3530 how can i try these codes onto them?

Thanks in advance

Paul,

I am pretty new  basically first time dealing with OMAP Processor and CCSv4.x . I tried to use your loopback example. It builds successfully, But However, it doesn't load program on target.

Following are my development environment: 

1. Mistral OMAP3530 EVM Rev G Board 

2. CCSv4.x

3. Spectrum Digital USB 510 Plus JTAG Emulator

Thru Multi launcher I can boot the board it has Xloader 1.42 and U-Boot 2008.10.

I am trying to load the program thru CCSv4.x. I am able to connect the target but when I am trying to Debug Active Project it complains about in console.

TMS320C64XP: Error connecting to the target: Error 0x80000260/-1178 Fatal Error during: Execution, Initialization, OCS,  The target does not have a CPU clock.

I am not sure where I am going wrong. is it somehting to do with setting up correct  *.gel file or Target ocnfiguration file.. (*.cxml)...

Please would be able to tell me how you were able to load the program on target and debug it...?

Please any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

AD

Attached is a document that I created for setting up and using CCS V4.

In your case you would make the following changes in the target configuration:

 - Connection: Spectrum Digital XDS510USB Emulator
 - Device: MISTRAL_OMAP3530_XDS510USB

This should allow you to connect and download to the target.

Paul,

Thanks! I tired the steps as noted in the document. Only thing I changed was instead of Hello World program I used your Loopback example as code.

Bu tI am still getting error in loading the program. Below I have noted what are my environment and steps.

Following are my development environment: 

1. Mistral OMAP3530 EVM Rev G Board 

2. CCSv4.1.2

3. Spectrum Digital USB 510 Plus JTAG Emulator

I creatred the Target Configuration file with

 - Connection: Spectrum Digital XDS510USB Emulator
 - Device: MISTRAL_OMAP3530_XDS510USB

Than I created New Project with your given Loopback example file. I have attached the example. After that I build the project. "binaries were created successfully Ican see the "*.out" file. After that "TI Launch Debbuger" which was successful. After that I connected Target which was successful. After that I execute 'Scripts->OMAP35xx Functions->C64xPlusRelease_FromReset' (based on the given thread - http://e2e.ti.com/support/development_tools/code_composer_studio/f/81/t/49722.aspx?PageIndex=2) After that I tried loading the program (*.out) file. And than I got error saying  Failed to load Program '....*.out' 'on target 'MISTRAL_OMAP3530_XDS510USB_0/Cortex_A8'  "REason : Error found during versification. Ensure the linker command file matches the memory map. Refer to the console View for specific address information."

I have also copied below the console message for the entire process....

Error found during data verification.

Ensure the linker command file matches the memory map.

I am ont sure where I am going wrong. Also not sure how to match linker command file which I dont hav eone....? to match with memory map which was automatically created. I am sending you the attached entire project which i am trying to load. Any help would be appreciated.  Alos I have attached the "Target configuration file" and gel files used were ..Mistral_Omap35xx_CortexA8.gel  and sdomap35xx_C64plus.gel.

I'll look at your files shortly. However, if you do not have a linker command file then this is a problem.

Steps 11 & 12 in the guide creates the linker command file. Look at the end of the "How To" document and you'll find an simple linker command example that will work for these examples.

Once the linker command file is created, re-compile and download your project - Step 13.

Run the example - step 14.

You should not need to run any gel files in addition to those automatically executed as these examples run on the ARM.

Try this and let me know what happens.

I added the Command Linker file.  Was able to build the project successfully. After that I clicked on "Green Bug" which states "Debug Active Project".

It didnt prompted any warning but when I see on "DEbug" window. it didnt halted at "main" and instead it halted at "0 c_int00() at boot.asm:200 0x80003444 under "Thread [main] (Running)". And I dont see any other activity on nay windows. I am not sure in what state it is.....? I have attached the image file of the CCSv4 screen after I hit "Green Bug".

Also I wanted to ask question why you mentioned in earlier thread that all examples run on ARM ....? and why cant we do that on DSP.....Why we dont select "C6000" as Project Type and Devic Variant as "C64x+" while creating New Project. Sorry for asking you so many questions but I am pretty new to this processor and development.

Thanks for your help.

When the emulator connects to a runnin host like you show, the simplest thing to do is reset the board and stop the boot process at the u-boot prompt. Now re-download the program to the device and all should be good.

I only mention that these are ARM example since I only developed them on the ARM processor.  For specific DSP help I would start a new thread for your questions and someone with more experienced with the DSP provide the answers.

No problem asking questions, it's a great way to learn!

  Paul

Paul,

Thanks! But I am not sure how to stop the boot process at u-boot prompt...? 

In my project I need to load the program on DSP. McBSP1 on DSP should be able to TX/RX communicate to FPGA.

Thanks,

AD

Paul,

Thanks alot for your example. So I was able to load and run the program on ARM side.

Now I want help in loading program on DSP. Where should I post my question on which forum thread...?

Thanks,

Arti

Great, I'm glad I could help.

For your DSP question, start a new thread in this forum and you should be good.

  Paul

Paul,

Thanks!! I will try to post new thread on DSP.

One more question If working on ARM only can I work on with more than one McBSP Port. As in what we planning to do here is.

Try to receive at external signal form FPGA at McBSP1 and than send it through McBSP1 tx to FPGA. ( I think I can achieve is just by disabling digital loopback in ur example)

Other test is to routing whatever I send out form McBSP1 I receive it on McBSP2 Rx and what ever I transmit from McBSP3 receive it on McBSP1 rx... but when I am trnsmittin gI am transmitting to FPGA... FPGA side is taken care... I nee dto handle this scenario on ARM side...  any idea to get started would help.

Thanks,

AD

The example is very simple and configures McBSP1 as a 4-pin McBSP which results in synchronous transmit/receive.  I suspect that you would want the 6-pin asynchronous mode for your test With the receivers configured as slave and the transmitter configured as master.. Also, the example transmits then receives, sounds like you will need it the other way around. So, with some modification, you could have the code do what you want.

The more complex example is possible.

McBSP1 master transmitter --> McBSP2 Slave
McBSP3 master  --> McBSP1 Slave receiver.

The McBSP master will source the CLK and Frame Sync.
