Does RTDX support C66?

Chen Neville54361

Hi all,

I crreate a CCS4 project with BIOS6 RTA example for C66. And I add simulator RTDX configuration according to BIOS6 UG section 7.4. During building the project, there is error message that RTDX doesn't support C66 target. And I found in rtdxModule.xs file that there is no C66 target family support. Does anyone know whether RTDX support C66? The BIOS version I used is V6.31 and I found that in V6.32 no C66 target family support as well in RTDX. Will RTDX support C66 in the future? Or there is corresponding RTSC component which replace RTDX for C66? Thanks a lot.

Chen,

RTDX is indeed not supported for the C66 and is actually being deprecated for all devices. If you are using the C66, are you also using the MCSDK product? If so, you should look at ways for the MCSDK to help you solve with what you need by, for example, using the UIA (unified instrumenation architecture).

Dave,

I don't use MCSDK. Where can I get it? Could you provide a link? If without MCSDK, any other suggestion on transferring RTA log periodically from target to host on C66 device? Thanks.

Dave,

I am aware that MCSDK only support CCSv5. The CCS I am using is CCSV4. So what RTSC component will play the same role as RTDX for C66 device on CCSv4? Thanks.

Chen,

Sorry, but I don't believe that there is any TI software solution that substitutes the old RTDX functionality on the C66 in tghe CCS v4 environment.

Um, can I make a conclusion that I can't transfer RTA logs from C66 target to host periodically in the CCSv4 environment? Thanks.

Chen,

The MCSDK can be downloaded at:

http://software-dl.ti.com/sdoemb/sdoemb_public_sw/bios_mcsdk/latest/index_FDS.html

I would strongly suggest moving to the CCSv5.0.3 release if you are using the C66x devices. This is the platform used to test the MCSDK and other debug components such as STM and ETB will be supported on this version of CCS and later.

Travis
