Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320C6678

Hi all!

I'm used the TMDSEVM6678LE with Blackhawk XDS560v2 Mezzonine Emulator and CCSv5 (OS Windows-7). I have small problem:

1. I create new Empty Project (without main.c)

2. CCS create file TMS320C6678.ccxml

3.I build this project - successeful

4.i'm tring to accomplish Debug ...ang my project hangs on boot

5.I do reset on supplay and receive message "

IcePick_D: Error initializing emulator: (Error -2083 @ 0x0) Unable to communicate with the emulator. Confirm emulator configuration and connections, reset the emulator, and retry the operation. (Emulation package 5.0.838.0)*

Switches is

SW3 1-Off 2-On 3-On 4-On

SW4 1-On 2-On 3-On 4-On

SW5 1-On 2-On 3-On 4-On

SW6 1-On 2-On 3-On 4-On (according Program EVM Images User Guide)

What is my fault? 

Ytlp me please!

  • Hi all!

    I have also tried to connect to this evaluation module with the same error.

     IcePick_D: Error initializing emulator: (Error -2083 @ 0x0) Unable to communicate with the emulator. Confirm emulator configuration and connections, reset the emulator, and retry the operation. (Emulation package 5.1.450.0)

    In my case I have used Code Composer Studio Version: 5.5.0.00077 on Linux host.

    It seems  to be a simple and straightforward process and I can't see what we are doing wrong. Could you please advice us on how to find the problem?

    Thanks a lot!

  • Oleg,

    Make sure you have the latest emulation drivers. You should have followed every step in the BIOS MCSDK Getting Started Guide on the TI Wiki Pages.

    Do not use the "Bug" icon, since it does several steps automatically. Instead, do the following steps manually, and report back what errors you get and when they show up:

    - Launch the Target Configuration for this EVM.
    - Do a Target Connect on CorePac0.
    - Load your program on CorePac0.

    Set the DIP switches for No Boot and try the steps above.

    For now while trying to get this working, power cycle the EVM each time you try a different method.

    Regards,

  • Oleg,

    Moved this thread to correct forum.

    Thanks.

  • Oleg,

    Your switch settings for No boot configuration on EVMC6678 seems ok.
    When you create the new project, please make sure the memory allocation properly (You may configure through linker cmd file or cfg).
    Better you can try with the MCSDK tested project, this will give you good understand for connect the target, then try your own.
    See the section "Use JTAG to Load the Application" to get more detailed information at this wiki,

  • Hello all!

    Thank a lot for your help! We have found out the reason of the problem. The emulator was in the SAFE MODE and was not able to connect the CCS  to the EVM. It was our first time with this emulator and at the beginning we haven't payed attention to the blinking LEDs.

    Thanks again!
