TMS320F28377D: Blackhawk XDS560v2-USB connection failure on scan-path length

Part Number: TMS320F28377D

Hi All,

I am using a Black hawk 560v2 USB trace debug probe to connect to my board with TMS320F28377D micro.  I have not able to connect to it with the following problems:

-----[Print the reset-command software log-file]-----------------------------

This utility has selected a 560/2xx-class product.
This utility will load the program 'bh560v2u.out'.
Loaded FPGA Image: C:\ti\ccs901\ccs\ccs_base\common\uscif\dtc_top.jbc
The library build date was 'Apr 30 2019'.
The library build time was '11:41:17'.
The library package version is '8.1.0.00012'.
The library component version is '35.35.0.0'.
The controller does not use a programmable FPGA.
The controller has a version number of '6' (0x00000006).
The controller has an insertion length of '0' (0x00000000).
The cable+pod has a version number of '8' (0x00000008).
The cable+pod has a capability number of '7423' (0x00001cff).
This utility will attempt to reset the controller.
This utility has successfully reset the controller.

-----[Print the reset-command hardware log-file]-----------------------------

The scan-path will be reset by toggling the JTAG TRST signal.
The controller is the Nano-TBC VHDL.
The link is a 560-class second-generation-560 cable.
The software is configured for Nano-TBC VHDL features.
The controller will be software reset via its registers.
The controller has a logic ONE on its EMU[0] input pin.
The controller has a logic ONE on its EMU[1] input pin.
The controller will use falling-edge timing on output pins.
The controller cannot control the timing on input pins.
The scan-path link-delay has been set to exactly '2' (0x0002).
The utility logic has not previously detected a power-loss.
The utility logic is not currently detecting a power-loss.
Loaded FPGA Image: C:\ti\ccs901\ccs\ccs_base\common\uscif\dtc_top.jbc

An error occurred while hard opening the controller.

-----[An error has occurred and this utility has aborted]--------------------

This error is generated by TI's USCIF driver or utilities.

The value is '-501' (0xfffffe0b).
The title is 'SC_ERR_TEST_MEASURE'.

The explanation is:
The built-in scan-path length measurement failed.
The built-in scan-path reliability tests cannot be
performed without knowledge of the scan-path length.
Try specifying the scan-path lengths in the command-line
options or board configuration file of this utility or debugger.

[End: Blackhawk XDS560v2-USB System Trace Emulator_0]

Where can I specify the scan-path lenghts?  I am using CCS v9 with up to dates drivers including the Blackhawk driver.  Where is the command line or board configuration file that I can specify the scan-path length.  What is the correct scan-path legnth?

Thank you.
