Flashing LEDs example on ControlSUITE for F2808

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CONTROLSUITE

Hi all.  I have got my hands on the Experimenter's Kit for the F2808.

I have installed the latest version of CCS 6, and ControlSUITE.

When I browse examples in CCS, I cannot find the Flashing LEDs project for F2808x (But I can see 2802, 2803, 2806x, 2833x, 2834 DIMM100....).

I have also downloaded the DSP280x_examples from this post: (http://e2e.ti.com/support/microcontrollers/c2000/f/171/t/21474)
 but the examples are all for CCS4.

Can anybody help me find a basic template for the F2808 in CCS6?

Thanks muchly.

    Cam,

    F2808 is not included in the ControlSuite releases. You can import the CCS4 projects using Project->Import CCS Projects. Brows to the Project you want to import in the ..\DSP280x_examples_ccsv4\ folder and start programming.

    CCS4 and CCS6 are functionally similar, the projects that have been build in CCS4 and later can be opened in CCS6. You can also import CCSv3.3 projects into CCS6 using the Project->Import Legacy CCSv3.3 Project option.

    Thanks for the reply
    Any reason why the F2808 is not included in ControlSuite?

    I proceeded with the import of the CCS4 example I listed. But I came up against a bunch of memory range errors in the 2808_eZdsp_RAM_lnk.cmd file.

    Do I have a memory map issue, or am I missing something in the linker files?

    Thanks.

    F2808 is a old controller and hence controlSuite does not come with its header & peripheral files. You can instead download the same from here:

    Cam,

    ControlSuite was created and released after F280x devices were release. We had to set a cutoff point to what would be included, and this did not make the cut. As You found, and Gautam pointed out is that these headers are still accessible through the Device Product page.

    It looks like you have 2 Linker files included. Another linker file is getting linked before the 2808_eZdsp_RAM_lnk.cmd file is linked. This throws a bunch of errors and is sometimes hard to debug.

    Check the following locations for a linker file being defined. My Project built without errors, so the screen captures are from a working build. My guess is that you might have it redefined in the Linker file Search path. Please compare and let me know what you find!

    * Listed in the Project Explorer

    * Listed in Project Properties-> General -> Linker Command File

    * Listed in Project Properties->Build-> C2000 Linker -> File Search Path-> Include library file or command file as input

    Yup. That's what I needed! Thanks Mark.

    Interestingly when I first imported the GPIO_Toggle project as a legacy 3.3 project it gave me two .cmd files:
    2808_RAM_lnk.cmd
    2808_eZdsp_RAM_lnk.cmd

    Great! I am glad that helped. I run into that problem every once in a while when making copies of projects and moving them around.
