CCS/TMDSEMU560V2STM-U: Host Connection error with error message from generated by TI's USCIF driver or utilities

Tejeswini,

Is the information above obtained from the faulty 560v2? If so, it matches quite closely what I have here, but unfortunately I don't have a 560v2 Traveler.

Also, can you compare the LED settings with section 8.2 of the Sd560v2Config Help document? To access it, simply click on the button "Help" at the top left of the utility.

You can also try to issue the "restore" command from inside the utility. Perhaps one of its settings may be off and preventing a proper connection. 

Hope this helps,

Rafael

Thanks for the reply Rafael.

Yes. I received it from a faulty one. Only difference i see is with "fpgaRev". I see none. You see a version number.  does this mean something?

Tejeswini,

I found a colleague that has a 560v2 Traveler and the dtc_conf also shows an absence of the fpgaRev parameter, which indicates this pod does not have a FPGA.

At any rate, can you confirm if the output of the dtc_conf is similar between the two pods? Perhaps something else is different between them and could potentially prevent it from working.

In the meantime, I am checking with Spectrum Digital to see if they spot something out of the ordinary.

Rafael

Tejeswini,

Can you confirm which pod do you have exactly?

This one:

Or this one:

This is the one I have:

Hi Rafael,

I have  this one: xds560v2 STM traveler  and   ths one: xds560v2 STM both. 

1)  xds560v2 STM :

DTC_Conf is same as you sent. There is no difference.

Below is the snapshot of error. 

On power on, 

Tejeswini,

Please apologize for the delay.

I have the xds560v2 STM and my observation is identical to yours, including the "restore" error. Given the differences between the outputs of the dtc_conf get commands we got before, I suspect this is a bug in the tool from Spectrum Digital.

Since I don't have a xds560v2 STM traveler, I can't validate your results. However, the specific error you are getting is due to a possible issue with your target board not being properly powered. That or something wrong with the cable between the pod ↔ target board or even something wrong with the pod itself.  

That said, any command I use from the DbgJtag tab yields an error as well, which also indicates a bug with the Spectrum Digital utility.

Simply to validate the process, if you open a command line you can issue the following command: 

C:\ti\ccsv8\ccs_base\common\uscif>dbgjtag -X emulator,driver=sd560v2u,ioport=0 -Y reset -S pathlength -S integrity

This is equivalent to the tests performed by the CCS "Test Connection" button. 

If this test works fine, you should start suspecting there is something not right with the CCS Target Configuration File itself. 

I will inform Spectrum Digital of the issues with their utility.

Rafael

Tejeswini,

Interesting; you mentioned that one of your XDS560v2s was working - did anything change since then?

One additional detail is to double-check the small board at the front end of the JTAG connector - it can be easily inverted with disastrous results (I have done this in the past).

All in all, I hope the repairs get done quickly.

Regards,
Rafael

Rafael,

Nothing changed since then. One is working which i am using currently with target. Other two (traveler and STM mentioned in previous post are faulty) are being shipped for repair.

Yes. I found that one of the small boards at the front end of connector was not working. So, I replaced it with a working one. Still connection failure is noticed.

Thanks!

Tejeswini,

Thank you for the clarification. Feel free to contact us back if you need additional help.

Sure. Thank you for the support.
