TMS320F28069F: C2000 Gang Programmer Issues

Dave Reagan

Part Number: TMS320F28069F


Tool/software:

Hello,

When I try to program a TMS320F28069F, I get the following message:

            ERROR 385: Nothing to program/verify - empty code in selected memory space.

Here are a couple of screenshots of my setup:

 

 

 

Can you spot what I’m doing wrong, and tell me what this error code means?

Let me know whether you need any additional information.

Thank you.

 

Best Regards,

Dave

    Dave,

    Sorry for the delay, this got assigned and I was OOO till now.  From the first screen shot, it doesn't look like the devices are connected the first grey box should be lit green underneath each checked device.

    I noticed that you have selected the devices to be powered from the GANG programmer itself, which is fine, but you need click the VCC On/off toggle to supply power to the devices(assuming that this is what you wanted).

    The error, is a bit different, I think its parsing your hex file and determining that there is nothing to program...which is odd as you mention. It looks like the input file is in intel hex format, can you verify that this is what you generated from CCS when you built the project?  We might want to try TI txt format to see if it give a different result.

    Best,

    Matthew

    Hi Matthew,

    Happy New Year!

    No prob. I was out for 2 weeks, too, for the holidays.

    Evidently, I was generating the output hex file in some format other than Intel hex. Every line was preceded by a character that the GANG programmer interpreted as a comment. So, the file looked empty. I talked to Gregory Czajkowski at Elprotronics, and he pointed this out to me. Fixed that and it's working fine. Thanks for your help.

    Best Regards,

    Dave
