the 6678LE board cann't connect to CCS5.1

Jian Zong,

When creating your Target Configuration, what did you choose for Connection? What did you choose for Device?

Since you are starting new on this, you might as well install CCSv5.3, or is there a reason you did not?

Whichever version of CCS you are using, you should go to the menu item Help->Check for Updates which will also download emulation updates.

sorry ,i did not descrpit the problem clearly .my CCS version is 5.1.0.09000   . after  i doubleClick on the icon 'CCS'  , i create an xccml  ,i choose "Texas Instruments XDS100v1 USB Emulator" from  drop down list 'Connection' and choose TMS320c6678  from drop dow list 'Board or Devie ' . as  far as i know , i removed the 'Emuation Mezzaine Card 'and the XCS100V1 is automatically  connected to DSp,so i choose 'Texas Instruments XDS100v1 USB Emulatorfrom 'from the drop down list 'Connection',then i click the buttion 'Test connection '',so the  bug below  occured. thanks for you patient reply  .

Jian Zong,

Why would you remove the mezzanine emulator board? You pay extra to get this improved emulator when you buy the EVM6678LE. Please put it back on and try to connect using the Mezzanine XDS560 emulator. I am not sure of the exact name.

It may not be possible for me to try this on my on board, so please try the XDS100v2 and XDS100v3 emulators for your connection. I think the XDS100v1 may be the wrong one, unless you found documentation that specifically said that. Please report back any successes you have to this thread.

Because when i connected the 6678Le board to my PC, There was an errror. I don't how to deal with it . So i removed the mezzanine emulator board in order to use another internal emulator XDS100V1  which is specified by the document . I  just run the program DIPInst32.exe .can it cause this problem?  if  i want to use  mezzanine emulator  (XDS560), did i need to install another program attached to the CD or another program?  

Jian Zong,

My recommendations are:

1. Uninstall CCSv5 that you have now. There is something wrong either in your installation or your board's hardware settings.
2. Install the latest version of CCSv5.3 and run the updates for that version once it is installed. 
3. Put the mezzanine board back on and follow the instructions for connecting with it.

I do not know what DIPInst.exe is or why it would have any effect on this. What is that program?

1) Install CCSV5.3 in your PC.(Take atleast 90 days evaluation version)

2) Install (/all )drivers in cd required for the c6678.

3) don't remove mezzanine emulator board .

4) open new project in ccs with main.c
