No Getting Guide for my DM365



I just received my DM365 eval board and it had no CD or printed info.  I downloaded all the software but cannot find a "Getting Started" guide for it anywhere.  The DM355 had a guide that instructed exactly how to set up the MV tools and the DM365 is a little different.  For example in the DM365 there is no equivilent to the mvl_4_0_1_demo_target_setuplinux.bin.  In addition the DM365 has a PSP instalation that isn't in the DM355.

Is there a guide out there and should I have gotten some manuals with my DM365?  When my DM365 boots the application program has errors so it doesn't demo anything like the DM355 did.

  • Please see http://e2e.ti.com/forums/p/5675/21374.aspx#21374 to start.

    As mentioned in the other thread, if you have a DM365 already you would have probably gotten it directly from your local TI contact (who should be supporting you in regards to documentation), the general shipping of the DM365 EVMs is still to come, and when they ship they will have printed documentation in them to get started. I will email you the EA version of the DM365 GSG seperately per your other thread.

  • Thanks Bernie.  I got your email.  I didn't realize that the product wasn't in general release.  I should be good to go now.

    Wrong Image Format for bootm command

  • Use the printenv command from the u-boot command prompt and post what it says.
