TMDXEVM6670LE Configuring Debugger Issue

KTM

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320C6670

Greetings! I have a TMDXEVM6670LE board with the XDS560v2 emulator. I'm running on a PC with CCS 5.1.0. I created my target configuration file (see below) per the MCDSK Getting Started Guide. When I load my target configuration in CCS, the "Configuring Debugger" window pops up and spins on "Initializing: IcePick_D" for about 7 minutes. Eventually the window goes away but then I can't connect to Core 0. Any ideas what I did wrong?

Thanks.

Kevin

Is that CCSv5.1.0.09000 or one of the earlier ones? Make sure you are on the latest.

Which PC O/S are you using?

Check all of your jumper and DIP switch settings to make sure you are set for the recommended mode for emulation. I do not have this board, so I do not know the exact settings for you, but the Getting Started Guide is usually pretty clear about all of these.

Randy,

I'm using CCS 5.1.0.09000 and Windows XP. I checked my switches. The EVM6700L Hardware Setup says to set all pins on SW3-SW6 to ON except for SW3-1. This should be "No Boot" mode. I'll look for a newer CCS.

Anyone successful in using the TMDXEVM6670LE (with XDS560v2 Mezzanine emulator)?

Thanks.

Kevin

Kevin,

Can you please try with the latest emulation drivers from the following website.

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

I have C6678 EVM with XDS560v2 Mezz card and I do not have any issues. Also can you verify that the USB cable is now connected to this Mezz emulator and not the base EVM.

Hope this helps.

Varada,

Very nice! Thanks for the pointer to the latest emulation drivers. I ran ti_emupack_keystone1_setup_1.0.1.0.exe and "Launch Configuration" now does not hang in Debugger Initialization. I can also now connect to the cores.

Thanks for the help!

Here's what I have for a driver on a Windows 7 PC. However, I don't recall where I got the driver.
