Dear Sir/Madam,
I have been working with the TMDXTMS570LS12CNCD controlcard during the past two week without any problem at all, but eventualy a couple days ago trying to load a new program I encountered the following error:
Error connecting to the target:
(Error -1170 @ 0x0)
Unable to access the DAP. Reset the device, and retry the operation. If error persists, confirm configuration, power-cycle the board, and/or try more reliable JTAG settings (e.g. lower TCLK).
(Emulation package 0.0.0.0)
I tried to reset the device and the error continued. Also there is no problem with the TCLK since it is using the default value (1MHz) and I have tried with lower values as well and the problem remained.
I shall remark that the controlboard was working well up to this point. Also the Test Connection in Target Configuration has never reported any error (not even now) and it reports the following log:
[Start: Texas Instruments XDS100v2 USB Debug Probe_0]

I looked into it in the forum and I found the following post:
The problem shown there is pretty similar to mine so I tried to follow the sequence suggested by the TI employee and I got stuck in the step 5 (I cannot connect the DAP). If I try (as suggested a couple post later) to reset the device before going to the next step it allows me to connect de DAP but when I open the memory browser, the highest memory address that I can acces is 0xFFFFFFE4 so I cannot go forward to the next step. Also, all the memory adressess are shown as ???????? so I could not change the value even I I had access to it. Moreover once I reach this point the program (CCS6) always crashes and I have to restart it. I have attached an image of the screen at that moment.
I also want to point out that the problem encountered is program independent in the sense that it happens no matter what project you try to load.
I have also tested power supply voltages and clocks of the different chips in the controlboard to check if everything was ok and I did not find any problem at all.
Is there any way to recover the controlcard?
Best regards,
Javier Vara
