Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320F28035, TMS570LS1224, TMS570LS0914

Hello All,

Just wondering if anyone has the Total Phase Komodo working with the bootloader code.  

Doesn't look too tough to implement but if someone has done it and willing to post - thanks in advance.

Regards,

    Hi John,

    I am not aware of any activity within our group with the Komodo CAN adapter. However, it certainly looks like an interesting tool. Given there is already a CAN based bootloader, it seems that all the work would be on PC side for the Total Phase Komodo CAN tool.

    If you get something going, be sure and post it to share with others!

    Chuck,

    Yes - the bulk is on the host side - but I made some changes to the processor side - including the bug in the serial port UART setting.

    I am still debugging this to make sure it's 100% - maybe I can post or at least post some 'porting hints' if anyone is interested.

    Hi John,

    I am also working on implementation of CAN bootloader on TMS320f28035(Target MCU). I am planning to use following setup to continue my application:-

    PC (Data Source) <-->UART <--->MCU(master) <---> CAN <---> MCU (Target)

    So i wanted some MCU or hardware as a Master MCU. So can i use Phase Komodo as Master MCU for CAN bootloader application ?

    Hello Siddharth,

    It would be advisable to post your question in the C2000 E2E since they are the experts on those devices. I have no experience with their CAN module and can't offer any guidance. This is the Hercules Safety Microcontroller forum (TMS570x and RMx devices).

    Hello Siddharth,

    The Komodo can be programmed as Master or Slave - and it should work since it is a general purpose debugging and monitoring tool.

    Hi,

    We already implement this sheme. Target is TMS570LS0914 or TMS570LS1224, master is STM32F405. Adapter device us very easy and small. This device fit in big DB9 connector enclosure. I use CCP (Can Calibration Protocol) for firmware update with some extensions.  For sample, I can enumerate compatible devices on can network. PC Application implemented using C#

    Hello All,

    I took the code that I believe originated from the TIer QJ; I modified that to work with the Komodo (the original code works with an NI I/F) - that is in MSVC; and I have an app that works with the TI Hercules CAN; but the Komodo is GP and should be able to be modified for whatever is needed for test/debug regarding CAN.

    I am pretty sure I sent this code 'port' to QJ; and I left it up to him (I thought) whether he wanted to publish that or not; with my 'blessing' so to speak since I used the framework of his original port to do the code for the TotalPhase Komodo.

    Regards,
    John W.
