Is CC Debugger needed in autonomous mode?

Is CC Debugger  needed in autonomous mode?

The CC85xx device are delivered unprogrammed from TI,so,if i want to use this device,i must preprogram it?

If i want to use the autonomous mode,whether there is a need to program CC85xx?and how to?

whether i need  the CC Debugger to connect the CC85xx,and program it with PurePath Wireless Configurator?

Wish for your reply!

  • Hi. 

    As you mentioned the CC85xx devices are delivered unprogrammed so you will need to program these devices no matter what mode you are running the device in. 
    There are multiple options here. From a hardware perspective you can either use:

    The PurePath Wireless configurator tool can be used for this purpose, but it is mostly useful during development/debugging phase and not a production environment. Another option can be the PurePath Wireless Commander Tool (http://www.ti.com/tool/purepath-wl-cmd) which is a production tool. 
    The image to program is generated from the PurePath Wireless Configurator tool where you set up how your devices should operate. 
    Hope this clarifies things.

  • Thank you very much!

    So if i want to use CC85xx devices for development,i must need a CC Debugger or GangPro-CC,right?

    The PurePath Wireless Commander is used for the production,but it's help mentions that it's a PC Tool that allows customer to execute EHIF commands on CC85xx devices.So i think it's used for the Host-Controlled Operation .But i want to config the CC85xx devices in the Autonomous Mode!

  • Hi, 

    For development use a CC debugger along with the PurePath Wireless Configurator (http://www.ti.com/tool/purepath-wl-cfg).

    Worry about mass production tools at a later stage knowing that we do have tools and support for this as well. 

    Just for your information, the EHIF interface is available also in autonomous mode (with a limited command-set) and is the interface used to program the device.  

    Let me know if you need additional help.

  • Thank you very much for your help!

    For now i don't have additional questions.

  • Hi,

    I have a question about the CC Debugger

    The CC Debugger User's Guide mentions that the Target Connector Pins include DC(Debug Clock) and DD(Debug Data)

    but when configure the CC85xx,the two pins is useless

    So after i get a CC Debugger,i must cut off the two pins,right?

  • Sorry

    ,i have known how to solve this problem
