  • Hello Dudu,

    In the TI production tool you will find a user guide titled Script Writer in the help menu. It has examples of how to write a script to download firmware.

    The xml file that is used is generated from the Production tool when in the Script Writer mode. The production tool contains tasks that you add to your script. One of those tasks does firmware download and that task takes an input of a .x0 file, which the UCD3xxx Device GUI also uses. The same options in that GUI are also in this task. The userguide example goes into detail and covers a few relevant scenarios.

    If you have any issue please let us know.
  • Thank you for you suggestion;

    And I have read user guide titled Script Writer,and i fllow the step ,use Firmware download _via_Rom task download the .x0 file to ucd3138064A succsessfully.

    I hopping to  konw that CCS6.0 out put XML file can input the TI production tool ?

    If pobilsable correct me  ,i will appreciate.

  • Hello Dudu,

    You will need to click the "tab" Edit Script. In there you will need to enter the password mentioned in section 3.1 of the "Script Writer" document. If you follow that section you will see what needs to be set to complete your script. Then after completing you can click the run script button. You can follow example 12.3.1 where the task Firmware_Download_via_Rom is used, which you also identified.

    The only scripts that can be used are those generated by the TI production tool using the "Script Writer." CCS output files are not scripts. The .x0 file generated by CCS, will need to be referenced by the Firmware_Download_via_Rom task. Notice in the example the "File_Name" is highlighted and that is where you specify the location of the .x0 file.
  • Thank you for your answer;


    Recently TI Digital Power Production Tool can't found my Device address.

    But i set the adress for 88 before and download successfully .And the configuration are the same.

    So I hopping to know the reason will cause this problem( Can't found my Device address )?And how to handdle it .

  • Hello,

    I am sorry for the delay I was on leave. From the two screenshots it appears that your device is UCD3100ISO1 but in the script where it has failed you have UCD3000ISO1 (notice the 5th character is different UCD3*0*). Since you have specified the incorrect device of UCD3000ISO1 it didn't find it. You need to update the device in the script editor. Hope this helps!
