Can you use the OMAP-L137 with CCS 4? (How?)

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMDSOSKL137, OMAP-L137

I'm trying to use a new OMAP-L137 EVM (TMDSOSKL137 Floating Point Starter Kit) with CCS 4.2.2 (just downloaded - 90 day eval).  When I do a Debug Active Project command I get the following error "Error connecting to the target: Connect to PRSC failed, -6305".   How can I use CCS 4 with the EVM?

I didn't install the CD tools that were supplied in the starter kit because they looked to be CCS 3.3 versions.

I created a new target configuration. I selected "Spectrum Digital DSK-EVM PLUS onboard USB Emulator" then checked EVMOMAPL137.  I get the following XML configuration:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<configurations XML_version="1.2" id="configurations_0">
<configuration XML_version="1.2" id="Spectrum Digital DSK-EVM PLUS onboard USB Emulator_0">

            </platform>
        </connection>
    </configuration>
</configurations>

I used the SD SDConfigEx tool to check the connection.  I get the following tree . . .

\XDS510USB\510\Emu
\XDS510USB\510\XDS510USB-PLUS

 I ran Emulator-Test and get the following:

** Using emulation application from directory c:\program files\texas instruments\ccsv4\emulation\drivers
** Checking for a valid emulator/eZdsp

  $$ You are connected to:
  $$ EmuProductName=XDS510USB
  $$ EmuPortAddr=0x510
  $$ EmuPortMode=USB
  $$ ProductId=510
  $$ ProductVersion=84

** Checking emulator/eZdsp scan connection
** Emulator Test **
 $$ EmuProductName=XDS510USB
 $$ EmuPortAddr=0x510
 $$ EmuPortMode=USB
 $$ ProductId=510
 $$ ProductVersion=84
 ** Emulator Scan Test
   -- Found JTAG IR length of 6
   -- Found 1 JTAG device(s) in the scan chain

I thought about running DBGJTAG, but noticed the warning on the TI Wiki: "Dbgjtag can be used with TI emulators and all XDS100 emulators. IMPORTANT! All other Spectrum Digital emulators must use the utility called "SDconfig", which can perform very similar functions. Please refer to the section If using Spectrum Digital emulators."

Any help would be appreciated!  (Is mine a typical "out of box" experience for OMAP tools?)

    There are some suggestions regarding that error in this thread:

    Hope this helps,

  • Hi Ki,

    Thanks!   I had checked this thread before.  I tried deleting the target cache files and restarting CCS 4, then doing a Debug Active Project.   I get the following from CCS:

    Operation in progress . .  Launching Debug Session

    Operation in progress . . Connecting to target 'Spectrum Digital DSK-EVM PLUS onboard USB Emulator_0/C674X_0'

    Error connecting to the target: Connect to PRSC failed, -6305

    ? An error was encountered when attempting to connect to the target.  You may continue with your debug session if you wish to attempt to resolve the issue by performing such tasks as power cycling the device or editing your startup scripts.   Continue launching?

    I selected No.

    Then I saw the screen flicker a bit, then go completely black for a moment, then I'm immediately at a Windows 7 login screen (as if I were switching users), but my user name is no longer present among the choices!!  The other day when this happened my computer rebooted, no blue screen of death - just straight to a hardware reboot.  This is not cool.  Fortunately, I was able to restart my computer and login under my user name.

    This is very weird.  I looked in the forums for this "Connect to PRSC failed, -6305" error but didn't find any mention of the -6305 code.  What is this?

    Thanks!

  • It appears to be a Windows 7 problem.  I can't get it working on my Windows 7 PC and a co-worker using Windows 7 also can't make it work.  I loaded CCS 4 on a Win XP machine and it worked fine with the EVM using on-board emulation.
