Faced problem to convert .out file to .hex for flash burn in TMS320c6713 EVM

Dear Arvind Singh

Thanks for your kind response. Which .cmd file has been  included in my CCS project, i have shown to you.

one things I have to clear first. Which ROMS  memory address, you have suggested for check. Is this memory for hex conversion .cmd file(like FlashBlink_ahex.cmd) ? if yes,  i have modified my .cmd(FlashBlink_ahex.cmd) file with your suggested value during hex convertion(command prompt ->hex6x FlashBlink_ahex.cmd). It show more warning like -

WARNING: section '.vecs' at 03000h falls in unconfigured memory (skipped), WARNING: section '.bootload' at 03000h falls in unconfigured memory (skipped), WARNING: section '.text' at 03000h falls in unconfigured memory (skipped), WARNING: section '.cinit' at 085a0h falls in unconfigured memory (skipped),
WARNING: section '.const' at 0a36ch falls in unconfigured memory (skipped), WARNING: section '.switch' at 0a6b0h falls in unconfigured memory (skipped)

If i use my previous code for hex convertion, it show minimum number of error(see my first post).

My first ROMS configuration was ....

rtdx_matlabFFT.out            /* Input File: COFF file format (.out) */
-a                          /* Output Format: ASCII Hex format (.hex) */
-image                      /* Select image mode */
-memwidth 8                 /* Set memory width */
-o rtdx_matlabFFT.hex         /* Output File: ASCII Hex file (.hex) */

ROMS
{

  FLASH: org = 000h, len = 0x3000, romwidth = 8

}

One thing, i want to tell you that i have also included .asm file in my main porject(vecs_int_flash.asm) that may help you to understand what is my exact problem ...

details of source code of vecs_int_flash.asm file is ..

Hope that my above details will give more idea about hex convertion  warning.

waiting for your kind reply ...

Dear Titus S

I have not used emulator for my TMS320c6713 DSK. I have used JTAG chain for  run  also flash burn.

I have attached two .cmd files. One .cmd file for build project and other for .hex convertion.

kindly see the attachment..

zip.7z

Dear

I have run with .out file successfully many times.

Ok, i have attached my .out file which you want. Kindly check it with hex convertion process.

please see the attachment.out.7z

Dear Titus S

Thanks a lot for your response.

After memory modification by you, this hex conversion process by .cmd,  has been successfully done, no warning message are shown.

But after flash burn, no any effect by my .hex file.  but when i load my same  .out file through CCS tool, it is working successfully.

I am really puzzled and last  two days, i have followed all my code and flash burn utility documents, i have not got any exact idea about this problem.

But after long  try, i have got some conclusions regarding this flash burn. I have seen that in the programing code, some function and variable declaration are effacting this flash burn like 

1. if i  delcare array variable as a global  with more than 32 size, it is not working. It is working if array shoule be declared as a local variable in main function.

2. Self declaration function, like round() function for round any floating value is effacting this flashburn process.

3. pow() function which is an internal function from math.h , is not work for flashburn process.

4. if i used 'goto' statement function , after flash burn, code is not working.

if i omit or modify all above matter, after flashburn , programing is working successfully.

I don't know, how many programing function or concepts are effect to my flashburn process.

If you know , any reason or  any rules guidance  about C programing code for flash burn, kindly help me to give details information.

wait for your kind reply ..

Dear Titus S

 Have you got my last message ?

I am still waiting for your kind reply ...

Please give me any suggestion if you have any idea ...

Regards

Gopal

Dear Titus S

I am still waiting for your kind reply.

Pls give me any idea if you have ..

Regards

Gopal

Dear Titus S

Thanks for your response. Ok, i will try with your last suggestion with LED blink example like using "goto", "round()" and "pow()".

I will be highly glad if you kindly report my problem at your end and inform to me...

Regards..

Dear  Titu S

At first sorry for my late response. Actually last 3 days our office was off days. But i have followed your instruction on today morning  by updated .cmd fime for .hex conversion with flash memory address. But i have seen some same warning messages that i have told in my initial post. I have checked that main reason for this warning is  org = 90000000h address instead of org=000h. and flash burn is not work.

I have attached my .c file that is basically modification of blinkDSK6713

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <math.h>

#include <csl_gpio.h>

Again , i want to say that i am useing ccs3.1 and flash burn ver 5.90.0.110 which were got with Evaluation kit "tms320c6713 dsk."

Hope that above information will help  you to get  final solution regarding my problem.

How did you convert ?

Command line or CCS itself ?

I have converted through command line.

C:\Users\Titus\Desktop\DSK6713\BlinkDSK6713\Debug> hex6x.exe BlinkDSK6713_hex.

cmd

Translating to ASCII-Hex format...

  "BlinkDSK6713.out"   ==> vectors

  "BlinkDSK6713.out"   ==> bootload

  "BlinkDSK6713.out"   ==> .text

  "BlinkDSK6713.out"   ==> .cinit

  "BlinkDSK6713.out"   ==> .const

C:\Users\Titus\Desktop\DSK6713\BlinkDSK6713\Debug>

I'm attaching the complete project, try it and let me know.
