CSL problems

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320VC5505, TMS320C5505

Hi everyone,

I am currently working on a project that uses a TMS320VC5505 DSP board. I've built up my project using examples that were given on the google code website and on the CD, and so far everything has worked.

As I needed a UART example, I installed the CSL and intended to try out the examples there, however everytime I try run any of the examples I get the same error code:

This project was created for a device-variant that is not currently recognized: TMS320C55XX.TMS320C5505. Please install the device-variant descriptor, or migrate the project to one of the supported device-variants.        CSL_UART_pollExample    project    1328540016920    1187

CCS is version : 4.0.0.16000 and when I click update it says it's the lastest version (although I have a feeling it is not).

The code still builds and compiles it's only when I try to connect to the target it fails.Some help please :D I've spent a few days trying to debug this problem and my collegue is as confused as I am.

Target Configuration:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<configurations XML_version="1.2" id="configurations_0">


<configuration XML_version="1.2" id="Texas Instruments XDS100 USB Emulator_0">
        <instance XML_version="1.2" desc="Texas Instruments XDS100 USB Emulator_0" href="connections\TIXDS100usb_Connection.xml" id="Texas Instruments XDS100 USB Emulator_0" xml="TIXDS100usb_Connection.xml" xmlpath="connections"/>
        <connection XML_version="1.2" id="Texas Instruments XDS100 USB Emulator_0">
            <instance XML_version="1.2" href="drivers\tixds100c55x.xml" id="drivers" xml="tixds100c55x.xml" xmlpath="drivers"/>
            <platform XML_version="1.2" id="platform_0">
                <instance XML_version="1.2" desc="USBSTK5505_0" href="boards\usbstk5505.xml" id="USBSTK5505_0" xml="usbstk5505.xml" xmlpath="boards"/>
            </platform>
        </connection>
    </configuration>
</configurations>

Cheers

Daniel.

    Somewhere along the way, the device variant for 5505 got renamed from TMS320C55XX.TMS320C5505 to TMS320C55XX.TMS320VC5505. You can try modifying the .cdtbuild file in your project folder to reflect this change.

    It definitely is not. In fact, that is very very old. The latest v4 version is 4.2.5. If you are having problems updating it, you can grab the installer for it from here:

    http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Download_CCS

    Or better yet, I'd take v5.1.

    Thanks

    Updating fixed the compiling error, however it still wouldn't load the program when I clicked debug.

    I manually loaded the program and it seems to be working now´.

    Thanks for the help :D
