I'm trying to load a basic program to my DSP which just hits the CLKMD register so that I can verify that the download process is working. The boot mode is set for HPI download. I've created the project and tested using the c55xx simulator. I'm having trouble with the actual download process. I create a .bin file using hex55 with the following parameters: -boot -v5510:2 -memwidth 8 -romwidth 16 -map PikaTestImg.map PikaTestImg.out -e _c_int00 -b -o PikaTestImg.bin (I refered to SPRA763C for this and I got the entry point from the top of my .map file). Now the part that I'm having trouble with. Where in the DSP memory do I download this? I thought it would be to offset 0x8000 words since that is the starting address after the HPIC register reset bit is hit. Also is this a contiguous download to the DSP? SPRA763C doesn't refer to the rest of the process after it talks about using hex55. I think I may be missing something in the whole download procedure.
