TMS320F28P550SJ: Graphing floating point numbers from Logger

Dennis Jarc

Part Number: TMS320F28P550SJ
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSCONFIG

I am using the Logger from SysConfig to take sine wave data. The data is a float and is correct when I look at the array in the watch window of CCS 20.3. When I try to graph the array, all I get is garbage. I tried adding a & in front of the variable but it did not fix the problem. Since the data is good in the array, how can I visualize it using the graph tool?

Thanks

Hello,

Did you refer to this reference guide on the CCS Graph tools? https://software-dl.ti.com/ccs/esd/documents/users_guide/ccs_debug-main.html#graph-view

Best,
Matt

Matt,

I used the CCS 20.3.1 Graph tools reference.

https://software-dl.ti.com/ccs/esd/documents/users_guide/ccs_debug-main.html#graph-view

I can't get to the Graph Properties described in the 7.7.1 Graph Tools.

Thanks

Dennis

Hi Dennis,

Unfortunately we a few issues with the graphs:

RE: CODECOMPOSER: 20.3.0 Graphs Changed/Broken

We are looking to address them in a future release.

I assume you are referring to the old CCS Eclipse graph tools:

https://software-dl.ti.com/ccs/esd/documents/users_guide_12.8.0/ccs_debug-graphs.html#how-it-works

As you noticed, the available properties in CCS 20.x have been reduced to based on usability feedback. As we continue work on the graph functionality in CCS 20.x, we can look to adding back more functionality.

Can I use CCS 10 for graph and not loose SysConfig features?

CCS 10 is pretty old and does not support your device. I would recommend that last CCS Eclipse based version 12.8.1.

Thanks

Ki,

I tried to use CCS 12.8.1 but it does not support the latest sysconfig. When do you think that the graph on CCS 20.3.1 will be updated?

Thanks

Dennis

Ki,

I tried CCS 12.8.1 but it does not support the latest SysConfig so I can't use it.

Thanks

Dennis
