EVM5515 target configuration, why no "Spectrum Digital DSK-EVM-eZdsp onboard USB Emulator" option

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ADS1298ECGFE-PDK

I'm trying to build and configure the ADS1298ECGFE-PDK sample code, discussed at http://www.ti.com/lit/an/sprabj1/sprabj1.pdf

Code Composer Studio version: 4.2.4.00033 (licensed version, I've previously been using this for MSP430 work)

I upgraded the CCSv3 project supplied in the sample, rearranged the include directories order, and got it to build without errors.  But I can't connect to my EVM5515 target board.

 

The problem seems to be that when configuring the target options, I'm not offered a choice of "Spectrum Digital DSK-EVM-eZdsp onboard USB Emulator" (see http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/GSG:Common_target_configurations#Boards_with_XDS510USB_onboard_emulator:).  I can select any of the TI choices, and there's a listing for the EVM5515, but the emulator can't connect.

Is there some plugin needed to get CCS to work with a Spectrum Digital emulator?

    The Spectrum Digital drivers come with CCSv4 unless you explicitly chose not to install them. Do you see any options for any Spectrum Digital emulator for the Connection type? Can you provide a screenshot of the list of connections?

    Thanks

    Here are the available target options.

     

     

    I've checked the update manager as suggested (Help -> Software Updates -> Find and Install) and didn't see anything there.

    hmm, you are missing all the options for the 3rd party emulators CCS ships with (Spectrum Digital and Blackhawk). Whether you initially chose not to install them or something went wrong with the install, they are not there. You can try running the installer again and point it to the existing install location. The installer will detect an existing installation and give you the option to modify/repair the installation. From there you can install any missing components.

    I'm working on that now.  It's unfortunate that these drivers aren't available separately from the 1.2 GB download [ since my install has been upgraded several times by the Eclipse updater, I don't have an installer matching the running version :( ].

    You can try running just the Spectrum Digital installer that comes in your original CCSv4 install zip (or DVD). It should be located in:

    .\install_images\emulation\sd_emupack_setup_4<version>.exe

    Point it to the 'ccsv4' folder of your installation.
