LAUNCHXL2-RM46/TMS57012 real time debugging

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LAUNCHXL2-RM46

Hi All,


On the web page describing Hercules Launchpads:

processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Hercules_LaunchPads

As a feature for the new, LAUNCHXL2-RM46/TMS57012, following thing is mentioned:

* XDS110 Class On Board Emulator

Does this tool allow to "see" in real time values of the global variables... In other word is it similar to the feature of the C2000 line, where there is possible to enable real time debugging. This allow to see and manipulate values in RAM without pause or break execution in the microcontroller.

Kind regards,

  • Hello Michal,

    I believe the feature you are asking about is supported; however, I have forwarded your question to one of our RM46/TMS57012 Launchpad experts so they may address your question more directly.
  • Hi Michael,

    You need to enable access via ICEPick/DAP for being able to do this. Here's how to enable access via ICEPick/DAP. When you first connect to the target, the "Debug" window will look like this:

    Right-click inside this window and choose "Show all cores"

    This will add the ICEPick and DAP to this perspective.

    With the DAP selected, open a memory window (View --> Memory Browser) and choose "System View" from the drop-down options.

    That's it. Now you can use this memory window to view/update variables in memory without halting the CPU code execution.

    Regards, Sunil
