AWRL6844: How to connect on AWRL6844 with CCS 20.1.0 & SDK6.0.4.1?

Part Number: AWRL6844
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSCONFIG

Tool/software:

 Hello team,

Customer said that the latest firmware MMWAVE_L_SDK_06_00_04_01 recommends to use CCS 20.1.0. They followed guidance on targetDB update, compiler, Sysconfig and they were able to import and build SDK demo project. After that when they click 'start project-less debug' with CCXML, they can R5 core and DSP core. However, when they try to connect on R5 core, status is changed to 'HALTED' as below. Have you seen this kind of issue before? If there is anything customer missed, please let me know.

.

FYI, customer has checked the board is connectable and debuggable with CCS v12.7. Meaning, board itself works well.

.

Regards,

  • Hey Victor,

    Thanks for reaching out. The "HALTED" state is the default state when you initially connect to the device, so this is expected. If they expand the call stack sections, they will see where the program counter has halted as well. After connecting to the core, they will need to right-click on the Cortex_R5_0 and hit Reset -> CPU Reset. This is needed since the reset vector for all programs is set to address 0x0000 0000. Afterwards, they can go to the top menu bar and select Run -> Load -> Load Program.

    Hopefully this clears up the procedure, but let me know if they have any other questions.

    Cheers,

    Kristien
