Data Load from dat file

Hello,

I am trying to load a hex file into char array using "Read data from file"  in breakpoint. I've done it once before, for integer format.

Now I need to load byte-size array in hex format. I used perl script to transform a data into hex format and the file looks like this:

1651 1 E383 0 190

54

49

50

41

0d

01

.....

.....

.....

This does not loads the correct data. The problem is probably in the hex format. Can someone point me to possible error?

Thank You

  • The way I always get the correct format is to first do a File->Data->Save in CCS and write out some data to a file, selecting the format that matches your needs. For the C6455, for example, you would select "Addressable unit" to get byte data.

    This will show you the format for the data and the right values for the header line. The header line and formats are described in some document somewhere, but it takes longer to find it and read it than it does to do the Save command.
