PA Simple Example Project and Ethernet Boot mode settings [c6670]

Hi Ti Folks,

            I landed into a strange problem. I was experimenting with a code which requires me to IMAGE [.out --> .eth and then .eth packet sent to evm through ethernet cable for booting] boot through ethernet mode. Its working fine and i am happy.
I was following the ethernet bootmode switch settings
Boot Mode                   DIP SW3                      DIP SW4                      DIP SW5                 DIP SW6
ROM Ethernet Boot6  (off, on, off, on)  (on, on, on, off)           (on, off, on, off)  (off, off, on, on)
Now, i went back to PA_SimpleExample project [I loaded the PA_SimpleExample project in JTAG mode, though my dip switch settings still pointing to Ethernet Boot mode] [it was accidental] and i see the project was not working [it is failing in set_macs]. I debugged for little time and understood that it is due to dip switch settings. I changed the dip switch settings to factory default settings, the PA_SimpleExample project worked fine.
So what i understood is not to run PA_SimpleExample [in JTAG Mode] under Ethernet boot mode dip switch settings ? can you please confirm [whether i am on right understanding] ? what is the issue here, can you please explain ?
Thanks

    Hi, RC:

    No, the Pa_simpleExample should work in all boot modes. My test platform is always set to ETH boot mode. I have tried to run the same test at the latest 6670L and 6678L EVM and the example worked at both platforms.

    Here is the proceude:
    - Launch CCS v5.1.(0.0.00031)
    - Launch the ccxml file (attached)
    - Tools->GEL (load GEL evmc6670l.gel)
    - connect core0
    - system reset
    - Scripts->LC_EVM_C6670_Functions->Global_Default_Setup
    - Load the test project
    - Run the test project

    Best regards,

    Eric

    Hi Eric,

                Thanks for reply. I will surely revisit this example and get back to post [with new/updated results/analysis] again.

    Thanks
