Code Composer v4.2 - Unable to find C6713 on Target Configuration Device List

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320VC5502

I'm trying to set up a new Target Configuration to load a small test App onto a C6713. I'm able to do this with Code Composer 3.1.

The device TMS320C6713 does not show up on the list. The Connection is a Spectrum Digital XDS510USB Emulator.

Can someone help ?  Thanks!

  • Hi,

    If you type 6713 on the Device box, you should be able to see a DSK6713 target - it is the exact same thing as if connecting to the device itself.

    Please give it a try.

    Hope this helps,

    Rafael

  • Rafael,

    Thank you for your answer. Let me give you a background of what my set up is and what I have tried:

    I have a board with 3 DSP's. 2 of them are TMS320C6713  and 1 is TMS320VC5502. I'm able to load software to all of them with Code Composer Studio v 3.1

    When I open the CCS file in Code Composer Studio v3.1 setup, it shows we are using the TMS320C6710 device for the 2 TMS320C6713.

    I was hoping to find the TMS320C6710 or TMS320C6713 options on Code Composer v4.2 Target Configuration, but they are not there. I'm trying to do load all 3 DSP's

    using 1 XDS510 USB Emulator and be able to do Multi-Core Debugging (referring to http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Multi-Core_Debug_with_CCS)

    In Code Composer v4.2 Target Configuration, I have tried selecting the DSK6713 Device, tried loading  the software and got the following error:

    "Error connecting to the target:
    Error 0x80000200/-1063
    Fatal Error during: OCS,
    Bad Target Silicon Revision Number
    Please check your multi-processor configuration.
    The number of devices in the JTAG scan path
    must be correct for the silicon revision to be read.
    Or, you may have selected the wrong DSP device driver."

    I have already tested the Emulator with SDConfigEx and it seems to be working. Also used the same Emulator and loaded the Software using CCS v3.1

    Since there was no TMS320C6713 option, I went under my C:\Program Files\Texas Instruments\ccsv4\common\targetdb\Devices, copied the c6720.xml and renamed it

    to c6713.xml. I changed a few things in the xml file to get it to work for 6713, refreshed my Target Configuration File and the TMS320C6713 device showed up. I selected the device, tried loading but I got same error as with DSK6713 (see error above)

    Questions:

    1. Is there a way to import the CCS file from CCS v3.1 setup into CCS 4.2 ?

    2. Is it possible to use Code Compoer v4.2 with TI DSP C6713 and do Multi-core loading/debugging ? Could you help ?

    Thank You For Your Help!

  • Hi Andres,

    The 6713DSK option will not work because that is specific to the C6713 DSK and you are using the C6713 on a custom board. Modifying the xml file for C6720 will not work either since the C672x is different than the C671x.

    There is an option for C671x but it is hidden. You need to create your configuration from the 'Advanced' Setup:

    http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Target_Configuration_-_Custom_Configurations

    What you need is the CPU for C671x like below:

    You can also add all your CPUs for you board:

    Thanks

  • Ki,

    Thanks for your message.

    I tried your suggestion and was able to load C671x_1 and run. Unffortunately I was not able to run on C671x_0 the. The debugger started but main was never hit. Any suggestions?

    I was not able to load the C55xx_0. I got an error:

    "Failed to load program on target 'Spectrum Digital XDS510USB Emulator_0/C55x_0'   Reason: Invalid file format"    I also tried including the "c5502.gel" file.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you for your help!
