Part Number: IWR1642BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR1642

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I have been trying to set-up the traffic monitoring sensor but when i try to debug the code i get the following error: Cortex_R4_0: GEL: File: C:\traffic_monitoring_16xx_dss\Debug\traffic_monitoring_16xx_dss.xe674 Does not match the target type, not loaded.

 wanted to know how can i solve the problem new to CCS and been following the steps that this youtube video provides to try and run the example code:

    Julian,

    IWR1642 has more than one processing core on it.  It has a cortex R4 MCU and a C674x DSP.  Based on the error message you are attempting to load a program meant for the DSP onto the Cortex R4.  That will not work.  That program needs to be loaded onto the DSP.  In watching the video I can see that they are creating a custom debug launch configuration and they specify the program to load on each core.  In your case I think you just mixed up the programs for each core.

    Regards,

    but now when i debug it its now saying: Texas Instruments XDS110 USB Debug Probe_0/DEBUGSSM_0 : Target must be connected before loading program.

    also when i try to open matlab it is unable to locate the file

    I am not sure which steps you are following to launch the debugger.  If you are selecting a project and then clicking the bug button then it should automatically launch the debugger, connect to the appropriate core and then load the program.  If you are manually launching the debugger then there is a button to connect on the toolbar.  Select the C674x in the Debug View window then click the connect button, then load the program.

    also i am cofused because the program error mention the following error

    Texas Instruments XDS110 USB Debug Probe_0/DEBUGSSM_0 : Target must be connected before loading program.

    when we are given only two initialization scripts

    ive tried to assign the dss file to that script but still getting the same error

    HI,

    Your last screenshot explians the error message: you are trying to load a Project/Program to the DEBUGSSM_0 core of the device. You should clear these two fields as this core is not a debuggable core. 

    Hope this helps,
