CCS/PROCESSOR-SDK-AM335X: CCS installation on target system

roya azimi

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I have a beaglebone black and I wrote "am335x-evm-linux-rt-04.01.00.06.img.zip" on a SD card,

and now I have matrix on my BBB.

Now, I want to use ccs as a develop and debugging tools as mentioned in rt-linux features:"Code Composer Studio™ IDE for Linux development"

as I checked "http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Processor_Linux_SDK_CCS_Installation_Guide" ccs should install on a host computer,

but I want to have onboard code composer studio, ie I want to have ccs on the beaglebone with out need to host computer.

is it possible to install ccs on my target board(BBB)? and have it as a matrix application?

if yes, can I use that for debug?

and if yes, please refer to a guide.

Thanks alot.

What you want is completely impossible.

thanks for your response,
but according to "processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Matrix_Users_Guide

it seems it's possible to installation any .tar.gz file and add it to matrix,
such as "CCS7.2.0.00013_web_linux-x64.tar.gz" in "software-dl.ti.com/.../index_FDS.html"

is it wrong?

1. The download you refer to is 64-bit, compiled for Intel x86 compatible processors.
2. See processors.wiki.ti.com/.../System_Requirements

Once again, I reiterate that it's not possible to run CCS on an ARM target system.

Thanks for your response,
I understand and it was valuable for me.

I have some questions,

1-as I checked "processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Processor_Linux_SDK_CCS_Installation_Guide" , I should have START_HERE partition in my SD card to getting start to install. but, I just have u-boot and MLO in the SD card.
what I missed?

I think the reason is that I created SD card with windows host and I should create SD card with linux host to have START_HERE partition. is it correct?

2-another question that, what is the intended purpose of
"If you want to install CCS apart from the Processor Linux SDK installer, or if you decided not to install it as part of the SDK install and want to install it now, you can install CCS using the following commands.."
in
"processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Processor_Linux_SDK_CCS_Installation_Guide
?

Thanks alot.

1. This talks about the SD card that comes with the EVM, not one that you create yourself.
2. This talks about installation on a Host PC, not on the target.

Now, I want to have OS and low level access with CCS together.

and I checked "processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Processor_Linux_SDK_CCS_Installation_Guide"

here is the steps that I did:

1- I wrote "am335x-evm-linux-rt-04.00.00.04.img" on SD card by windows. then I backed it to BBB and boot it successfully and now I have matrix .

2- I installed Ubuntu 17.04 on my host computer.

3- I installed "ti-processor-sdk-linux-rt-am335x-evm-04.00.00.04-Linux-x86-Install.bin" on my Ubuntu host according to "".

4- I installed "CCS7.3.0.00019_linux-x64.tar.gz" according to "" on Ubuntu.

5- connect BBB and host computer with Ethernet cable (is FTDI cable necessary?)

Now, I want to run a led blinker with CCS: I want to write a led blinker with CCS and then program the BBB. can you guide me how should to do it?
