Part Number: TMDSICE3359

Tool/software: TI-RTOS

Hello,

My computer is Win 7 32.

My eval board is a TMDSICE3359

I'm follwing the advice I found at processors.wiki.ti.com/.../SYSBIOS_Industrial_SDK_Getting_Started_Guide

First I installed ccs_setup_7.2.0.00013.exe

Next I added ti-processor-sdk-rtos-am335x-evm-04.00.00.04-Windows-x86-Install.exe

I took the complete installation with all the default settings.

I compiled and ran Hello World successfully.

Now I would like to run an example that uses an Ethernet port and another example that uses a SPI port.

After that I would be ready to begin my own work.

For the life of me, I cannot find the examples, supposedly somewhere under $(IA_SDK_HOME).

$(IA_SDK_HOME) is not a windows command.

"Set" displays all the current windows environment variables, but IA_SDK_HOME is not there.

I would have guessed that IA_SDK_HOME == C:\ti\processor_sdk_rtos_am335x_4_00_00_04 but there are no example projects to be found.

I looked at the Resource Explorer. It admits there is such a thing as a TMDSICE3359, but doesn't list any examples.

Where should I look for examples?

What is the path IA_SDK_HOME should point to?

Is there something else I should have installed?

Can you give me a URL to examples projects to download?

Thank you for your help,

Bob

Hi,

The wiki link that you are referring is for the Industrial SDK, that is no longer supported. Start from this wiki link instead: processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Processor_SDK_RTOS_Getting_Started_Guide

Hello Biser,

Thank you for your reply.

It brings up the next question.

In one place they tell me :

"CAUTION See the Release Notes for the recommended version of CCS. This is the version that was validated with the software in the SDK and will provide the best user experience. Occasionally, there may be compatibility issues if different versions are used."

and

CCS 7.1.0.16
EDMA LLD 2.12.4
IPC 3.46.0
OpenCL 1.1.13
OpenMP 2.6.0
PDK for all platforms
SYS/BIOS 6.46.5
TI ARM CGT 16.9.2
TI PRU CGT 2.1.5

And then they have me do automatic updates.

Which should I do, get exactly the versions described in the sdk wiki, or get the updates? What works best for you?

Thank you

The next steps to generating the example projects were at processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Rebuilding_The_PDK.
from a command prompt window
cd C:\ti\processor_sdk_rtos_am335x_4_00_00_04
setupenv.bat
gmake all

And finally, to run blinky on the Icev2am3359

open a command window
cd C:\ti\processor_sdk_rtos_am335x_4_00_00_04
setupenv.bat
gmake all
cd c:\ti\pdk_am335x_1_0_7/packages
a note in pdksetupenv.bat asks us to:
1)set CG_XML_BIN_INSTALL_PATH=C:/ti/cg_xml/bin
2)Install doxygen into c:/ti/doxygen,(www.stack.nl/.../, doxygen-1.8.13-setup.exe)
3)set DOXYGEN_INSTALL_PATH=C:\ti\doxygen\bin
then run pdksetupenv.bat
followed by pdkProjectCreate.bat

After all this run CCS let it find everything it can.
run ccs->file->import->Code Composer Studio->CCS Projects->c:\ti\pdk_am335x_1_0_7/packages
Right click GPIO_LEDBlink_icev2AM335x_armTestPtoject and build-debug-load-run
