    Hi Shreyas, Thank you for your information. I was able to run the sys/bios6 "Hello World." example with my custom DM6446 board. But i did not have any luck running the sys/bios6 "task" or any other sys/bios6 examples. The compile was fine but when running the program did not...

    Hi Dave, Thanks for checking. I resolved part of the issue, that is i was able to configure the mmeory on DSP core and run the program on DSP. I have the other part of the problem where I want to run a "Hello World." example program on DM6446 ARM core with CCS V5.1. The reason is that I...

    Hi Steve, Thanks for your reply. I did a "Clean Project" and then a "Build Project" on the ARM_sysbios_Hello_example. The zip of entire directory is attached here. Please note that the linking is not done due to error in memory range overlapping (See below). Please let me know...

    Steve, Thanks for the reply. I added these two lines in the hello.cfg and build is OK now. But I could not load the .out file into memory. The error message is as follows: ARM9_0: File Loader: Data verification failed at address 0x82004000 Please verify target memory and memory map. ARM9_0...

    Hi Steve, Thanks for the instructions. Can you connect to the board without loading the program? I could not view the memory if the CCS is not in debug mode. Also I checked my GEL in the target configuration, it is empty there in the initialization file. My custom board is booted from flash...

    Hi Steve, The problem is the booted Linux kernel on ARM processor. It changed the memory map that prevented me from loading the program. I was able to load the Hello World program after stopping Linux boot. My next question is relating to the Inter Processor Communication (IPC) example. I have...

I am using a standard GEL file evm816x.gel (attached) downloaded from Spectrum Digital. Also the program is a standard program that comes with CCSV5. It almost...

    Hi Shreyas, I used memory browser to check the Timer #3 configuration at 0x4804 2038 (timer 3 TCLR). It is 0x0. But it would not allow me to change it to 0x3. I don't know why it does not let me to turn it on this way. On the other hand, i was able to change Timer #1 TCLR at 0x4802 E038 from 0x3...

    Hi Alan, I tried your suggestion. It is not working. When I check the Timer register at 0x4802E038 (Timer 1 TLCR), it is 0x3, the Timer register at 0x48040038(Timer 2 TLCR) is 0x0, the Timer register at 0x48042038 (Timer 3 TLCR) is also 0x0. There is no change for those Timer Control Registers by...

    Hi Alan, Your script solved my problem!! Now my timer is ticking and all clock related examples are running as supposed to. Thanks a lot. Can you elaborate on why you select TIMER clock to be external 32KHz clock in your GEL script? Have you tried the Inter Processor Communication (IPC) message_multicore...

    Hi, I am trying the SYS/BIOS 6 Static example on my C6A8168 EVM board after successfully running the Hello World example. I would expect some System_printf() statements on the Console to indicate the program is running correctly. But for some reason, i could not get it to display anything on the Console...

    Hi Judah, I changed to two cores as suggested but the problem is still there. It seems i can not pass the Ipc_start() function call on both DSP and ARM. The breakpoints in tsk0_func() are not hit. Why can't I step into Ipc_start() using F5? Any ideas? Thanks, Zhao

    Hi Scott, After some more searching, I discovered that one of the SYS/BIOS models is for the MSP430F2274 which is pretty close to the 2618 which I am using. Are there any instructions on how to create a new SYS/BIOS entry? I think I could use the 2274 as a starting point to create a 2618 implementation...

    Hi Judah, Yes, I did power cycle the board before loading. My C6A8168 EVM board boots from SD card. When it boots, i have to enter a key on the RS232 terminal to stop it from booting into Linux. The terminal is then left with a TI8168_EVM# prompt. Only at this stage will i be able to connect to...
