CCS/LAUNCHXL-F28379D: Flashing CPU2 with GUI composer

Benjamin Maxwell

Part Number: LAUNCHXL-F28379D

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I am looking into using GUI composer with my application that uses both CPU1 and CPU2. However being a newbie I am a little confused on how to setup .out files so that when flashed from my dashboard they are written to the correct CPU. I have only been using the debug configurations to properly set up CPU2. I couldn't find any documentation in the GC user guide on this so I was wondering if I am missing something.

Thanks

Benjamin,

Please take a look at this section on creating custom target configuration files.

https://dev.ti.com/gc/designer/help/GC_UserGuide_v2/targetprog.html#configuration-for-xds-communication

You could use that method to create a custom target configuration file that bypasses CPU1. To bypass cores, open the target config file in the Target Configuration editor and go to the Advanced tab, select the desired core and click on Bypass. After creating the file, upload it to the GUI Composer project as described in the User Guide. That should allow you to load the program to CPU2.

Hope this helps.
