Hi, I'm new to DSP and I was wondering how I can write to the GPIO pins and verify that it is working on the TMDSEVM6657LS board.

Cynthia,
Already a sample example program is available as "GPIO_LedBlink_C6657_EVM_c66xTestProject" for TMDSEVM6657LS board.
You can run that example program on your EVM and verify that the GPIO pins are working....
This example project is part of PDK of Processor SDK 6.3 --- PROCESSOR-SDK-RTOS-C665x 06_03_00_106
http://software-dl.ti.com/processor-sdk-rtos/esd/C665x/latest/index_FDS.html
Follow the below guide to " how to setup the environment" and "how to run the GPIO led blink example" ..etc.
I have personally tested this GPIO led example on C6657 EVM and it worked successfully.
Let meknow how it goes for you....

I was able to successfully run the GPIO_LedBlink TestProject.
However, since the TMDSEVM6657LS board does not have any gpio pins that are directly connected to an LED, how can I confirm that the GPIO pin is being written to correctly.
Based on the schematics, it looks like on the 80 pin expansion header, pins 78 and 80 are for GPIO 14 and GPIO 15.
If I change the GPIO LED inside the example project to be 14 and 15 (instead of the default value of 8 and 9), could I theoretically put a scope on pins 78 and 80 on the expansion board and see it?
Thanks
Cynthia,
True. Good point !

Yes, you could try that, as well.

Alternately, You can connect a multimeter and check -- when you write the values 0 and 1.
