CCS/MMWCAS-DSP-EVM: Unable to flash Firmware by loading through CCS

Part Number: MMWCAS-DSP-EVM

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

I'm following Processor_SDKRadar_UserGuide in Processor_sdk_radar v03.08. While trying to follow step 3.8 'Load using CCS' and I follow the steps therein.

After I push "target configuration", I get this error. 

Error initializing emulator:
(Error -2083 @ 0x0)
Unable to communicate with the debug probe. Confirm debug probe configuration and connections, reset the debug probe, and retry the operation.
(Emulation package 9.1.0.00001)

The debugger I'm using is Blackhawk USB560v2 System Trace. 

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

    Hi,

    First, make sure you select "Blackhawk XDS560v2-USB System Trace Emulator" for connection option in target configuration.

    Do you have SD card inserted with binary so the program is already running when you try to connect JTAG in CCS?

    Regards,
    Stanley

    Hey, Stanley. 

    These are all the options I see for connection options, I didn't have Blackhawk as an option above so I went with Spectrum Digital. I even used the update manager and downloaded the available updates but I still couldn't see Blackhawk.

    The SD card may have been inserted but the program wasn't running. I verified it by changing the boot mode through the DIP Switch and I set is to QSPI_1. Hooking up Tera Term with this setting and the SD card didn't populate the terminal, which proves that the program was not running through the SD card. 

    The DIP Switch settings I used is from this link 

    Accepted Answer, Table 29.9, QSPI_1.

    In CCS, please go to "Help" -> "Install New Software...". Click on "Manage" and there should be an option to select Blackhawk Emulation update site.

    Use that option to install the driver.

    Another option is when you first install CCS, Blackhawk driver is one of the optional installation package. You have to select it for it to be installed.

    Or, you can try Blackhawk website to see if they have the emulator driver available to download.

    I did the install new software step already. It didn't populate my list with Blackhawk Emulators. I went to Blackhawk's website but it points me to a CCS installation. 

    Is a clean -reinstall my only option?

    If you already went thru other options and didn't get it, I would just reinstall CCS again.
