DSP/BIOS failed to continuous refresh "printf log" and "CPU load" in CCS5.1

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320F28035, TMS320F28335

Dear sir/madam,

    I designed TMS320F28035 project with DSP/BIOS5.41, and the IDE is CCS5.1. The project works well, but I always failed to continuously watch "printf logs". The viewer can be updated only when the CPU is on suspend, even when I select "enable silicon real-time mode" and "enable RTA continuous refresh" . Besides, the "CPU load" viewer doesn't work at all.

   I am looking forward to your reply as soon as possible, thanks!

Regards,

  • Hi,

    Can you attach your .tcf file? I want to make sure you are setting up Rta correctly.

    Please note that real-time data exchange (RTDX) is no longer supported. Please refer to the following webpage for more details:
    http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Real_Time_Data_eXchange_%28RTDX%29

    The following website has some additional tips that might help you also (granted if it more focused on CCS 4.x:

    Dear Todd,

        Thank you for reply.

        I followed the website, but it did not work yet. Besides, my emulator is XDS-510, and printf log and cpu load viewer do well in my previous project with CCS3.3. I enclosed the tcf file and debug graph. The tcf file can't be updated, so I changed the extension name to txt.

      Best regards,

  • The configuration looks correct. So you were able to get RTDX (runtime updating of the CCS logs/graphs) to work with CCS 3.3 with this application...correct? If this .out works with CCS 3.3 and not with CCS 5.1, I'm transfer this question to the CCS forum.

  • Dear Todd,

        The project can't run on CCS3.3 because the device is TMS320F28035 and I have posted the question in forum.

    http://e2e.ti.com/support/embedded/bios/f/355/t/190485.aspx

      My previous project is designed for TMS320F28335, which can run with CCS3.3 correctly. 

      By the way, I contacted the emulator manufacturer, she said the emulator can support RTDX, no matter CCS3.3 or CCS5.1.

    Best regards,

  • Unfortunately we no longer actively support RTDX so you are limited to stopmode. In recent releases of SYS/BIOS, we are supporting Ethernet, UART and USB as the transport mechanism to get real-time Log data off the target.

  • Dear Todd,

        It's a bad news. I have to update my project, but I think sys/bios will consume larger RAM.

       Thanks!
