Part Number: TMDSEVM6678
Hello,
I have been trying to connect my board for several days now with no luck. If the instructions for the settings of how to connect Code Composer Studio to the board were in the box, then somehow I missed them. I really just need to know what the settings are that I should configure code composer, including the dip switches on the side, for two cases:
1) When I just want to load my out file directly into RAM if that is possible (or do I need to load it into NAND flash first)?
2) How to load into NAND flash if I need to do that first?
Right now, when I try to connect, by testing the connection within the Target Configuration Editor and using the TEST CONNECTION button, I get the following error:
-----[Print the board config pathname(s)]------------------------------------
C:\Users\jbshi\AppData\Local\.TI\213602635\
0\0\BrdDat\testBoard.dat
-----[Print the reset-command software log-file]-----------------------------
This utility has selected a 560/2xx-class product.
This utility will load the program 'xds560.out'.
Failed to open i/o connection (\\.\xds5600)
An error occurred while soft opening the controller.
-----[An error has occurred and this utility has aborted]--------------------
This error is generated by TI's USCIF driver or utilities.
The value is '-250' (0xffffff06).
The title is 'SC_ERR_ECOM_EMUNAME'.
The explanation is:
An attempt to access the named emulator via USCIF ECOM has failed.
[End]
If I try to load my code and run it, I get this error:
Error initializing emulator:
(Error -2083 @ 0x0)
Unable to communicate with the emulator. Confirm emulator configuration and connections, reset the emulator, and retry the operation.
(Emulation package 5.0.747.0)
If you can give me the configuration settings and if I am using the correct version of CCS (which is 5 according to the documentation), then, I would be fine. Right now, I cannot even connect to the board and don't know where to start to find out how.
Currently, when I configure the settings in the Target COnfiguration Editor (which, as stated above, is also where I test the connection using the TEST CONNECTION button), I have the connection set to: TI XDS560 Eumulator and on board or device I have that set to TMS320C6878. One anomaly I have noticed is that there were NOT a TMS320C6678.ccxml command file, so I modified the, "/C6678_HW_TP/TMS320C6657.ccxml" command file and specified the TMS320C6678.
On the properties window, I have the following items programmed:
Variant: C66xx Multicore DSP and TMS320C6678.
Connection: TI XDS560 Emulator
Endianess: litle
Compiler Version TI v7.3.4
Output Format: eabi (ELF)
Not sure what else to do and very frustrated that I can't just connect my CCS directly to the probe without issue.
Last, please don't forget to specify the settings for the configuration switches for SW3, SW3, SW5, and SW6) for running CCS and connecting to the eval kit.
