CCS/AM3359: Why the project can not import

Part Number: AM3359
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CONTROLSUITE, SYSBIOS

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

See details below.
Error: Import failed for project 'MyPMSM_FOC_Sensorless' because its compiler definition is not available. The project does not appear to be a 'CCS Project'. Please try importing it through the 'General > Existing Projects into Workspace' wizard.

so i can not build this project.

this project come from https://e2e.ti.com/support/arm/sitara_arm/f/791/p/208345/739157 

  • Moving this to the C2000 forum.
  • Thank you very much.My question is how to operate this project in order to let the motor turn up, because I can not import ccs.
  • Hi orange orange,

    What version of CCS are you using?  I just attempted to import the project you referenced using CCS 6.1.2.00015.  I was able to import it successfully.  Note that I unzipped the project into the following directory of controlSUITE.
    \controlSUITE\development_kits\DRV8412-C2-KIT_v131\

    [note that once you import the project into CCS successfully, you will need to A) use the FLASH configuration of the project, and B) should expect to potentially clean up some pathing issues, depending on where you've installed ccs & controlSUITE]


    Thank you,
    Brett

  • Thank you very much for your reply,First of all, my CCS version is : 7.1.0.00015, I was directly after unzip this project(project->Import CCS projects).and then I did not find the controlSUITE directory, is this the controlSUITE is in a new package ?thank you very much.

  • Hi,

    controlSUITE is C2000's primary software delivery mechanism for the F28027 device.
    http://www.ti.com/tool/CONTROLSUITE

    Brandon's project includes some files from controlSUITE that are not located in his zip file.  Please remember that this specific project is something that Brandon developed and we may not be able to answer questions related to his code.

    Depending on what device and/or kit you're using, some standard TI examples may also be available (and are likely to be found within controlSUITE)..


    Thank you,
    Brett

  • I have another question, why AM437X the ethercat example(sysbios_ind_sdk_02.01.03.02) can be build successfully and can be used in AM437xIDK, and 335x example(am335x_sysbios_ind_sdk_1.1.0.8)can not.I am a novice and have lots of TI products, thank you for your patience.

  • Hi orange orange,

    Unfortunately for you, there is a C2000 forum and a Sitara forum.  This post is in the C2000 forum.

    Being from the C2000 group, we/I can try to help you from the C2000 side & with the bridging between the two devices.  The Sitara forum will likely be best suited for supporting the Sitara side & also be able to help with this bridging.

    For this Sitara specific question, I'd recommend posting a new question to the Sitara forum.


    Thank you,
    Brett

  • I'm sorry to have trouble your.

  • No problem. Just want to make sure you get the best answers possible.
  • Dear Brett Larimore.I am sorry to trouble you again, I have to follow the instructions you have to extract to unzip the directory, and also installed the software, but still the same as the beginning.

  • Hi orange orange,

    What version of CCS are you using?

    ===

    Within CCS, if you right-click on the project name and then click Properties, you should get to see what compiler version is being used.

    For example, when I imported (see below) my installation shows that the project was built with TI compiler version 6.1.0, but my computer doesn't have that specific compiler version and has chosen to use compiler version 6.4.10.  For newer CCS versions, you may need to explicitly choose a updated compiler if the version the project was designed around is not installed on your computer.

    (note that it is very rare that using an upgraded compiler (versus what the project was built around) causes issues)


    Hopefully this helps.


    Thank you,
    Brett
