    Hi,

                The data section in the binary will be initialized at load time. So once you execute the program, the data section variables may be updated by the program and will no longer be having the initial values.

                Now if you press restart button in ccs (step 6) the program counter will be set to starting point but the data section variables will not be reinitialized. So the program may not execute as expected.

                So you need to reload the program again.

               

    Regards

    HI Baskaran, Are you really serious about this answer? why you have restart button on the CCS6 debugger?

    My suggestion please setup this in your lab? and monitor the program counter. Please ask starterware team to create a sample  target configuration file
