CCS5.1.1 update problem

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSBIOS

I recently installed CCS 5.1.1 for Windows. Somehow my SYS/BIOS is only 6.32. I want to update it to 6.33. When I used Check Update in CCS help menu, SYS/BIOS 6.33 did not show up. Why is that? Thanks.

  • HI Chun,

    this could be because it is possibly not on the update server yet.

    Have you tried to download it here:

    http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Category:SYSBIOS

    You can install it then in CCS under Window->Preferences->Code COmposer Studio->RTSC->PRoducts

    Please keep us informed.

  • Lisa,

    I manually installed the SYSBIOS 6.33 using the link you provided, then added it to RTSC product search path. It works. Thanks.

  • Hi Lisa,

    I manually installed SYSBIOS 6.33. Although my project compiled and built, it has a troublesome warning message:

    Product 'SYS/BIOS' v6.33.2.31 defines no repositories. Uninstall and reinstall the product, or contact the product provider.

    Here is a screen shot of my Window->Preferences->Code Composer Studio->RTSC->Products. The SYSBIOS6.33 is there.

    I did manually added SYSBIOS to Project->Properties->Build->XDCtools->Package Repositories because compiler was complaining it could not find ti\bios.  Below is a screenshot of the Package Repositories.

    Afert the package pathes were added, the project compiled and built, but the warning message above showed up. One thing that may be related to the problem is that my compiler is in C:\Program Files\Texas Instrument, but the SYSBIO is in C:\ti. Somehow the CCS was not setting the path to SYSBIOS correctly. If you know how to fix this, please let me know. Thanks.

  • Hi Chun,

    ok two things to check.  You are correct the installation of the BIOS version may not have gone quite properly.  Try making sure to point to the correct directory.  You can try unzipping the file again and reinstalling.  Also double check any dependancies.  Ie perhaps the issue is that this needs a certain version of XDC of IPC installed .... on our BIOS wiki there is a lot more information on this.

    Also make sure you create/use an RTSC project.  You will know if this is the case because in Project->Properties->Gerneral there is an RTSC tab.

    Please keep us informed.

  • Hi Lisa,

    Uninstall then reinstall SYSBIOS did not help. What solved the problem is to remove SYSBIOS 6.33 from Window->Preferences->Code Composer Studio->RTSC->Products then restart CCS. At start up, a window popped up saying CCS discovered the SYSBIO 6.33.  And it was able to register it correctly this time. The warning message went away.

  • HI CHun,

    ok, glad to hear you now have it installed properly.

    Thanks for the update and all the best with development.
