Thank you,

Hi, please browse to your <SYSBIOS_version_path>\packages, pic your board packager and press next. An example is shown below:

Just, for your reference, this is explained in a nice presentation, done by one of my colleagues (slide 60):

There are also other nice videos there in case you want to check them.

thank you,

Hi TI

When I finish this setting, where can I find the .cfg and .xdt file?

Are it fit to my new setting?

Hi Evan, after you modify/save your new platform you can used in your CCS project. Properties -> General -> Platform.

About .cfg file, this comes along with EtherCAT slave project. It should have a name like "am335x_app.cfg" or "ecat_appl.cfg". About .xdt, in case of our previous Industrial SDK (ISDK), which was the SDK used for mentioned above AM437x DDR-less application note, you can find it at "/protocols/ethercat_slave/ecat_appl/ecat_appl.xdt";"

thank you,

Paula

Hi Paula

Thanks for your respond, but there is no "ecat_appl.xdt" file in my folder. It's only has "amic11x_onchip_mem_app.xdt", and my platform is "AM437x".

Hi Evan, please note DDR-less application note was developed and validated with Industrial SDK (ISDK) .
ISDK was replaced last year by PSDK + PRU-ICSS EtherCAT industrial software add-on. So, this application note should be used as a general guidance of what needs to be done, but, because it wasn't created (nor validated) with the new software PSDK package, then, some things, and names might be different..

thank you,
Paula
