Connection Problems when using CCS 5 and the xds560v2 emulator: (Error -1170 @ 0x0) Unable to access the DAP

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS570LS3137

Hi,

I am facing a problem when trying to connect to the target mikrocontroller (TMS570LS3137) when using CCS 5 and the xds560v2 emulator (Spectrum Digital). When setting up the target configuration file and testing the connection everything seems to work fine.But when trying to connect to the target for debugging purposes, I got the following Error Message:

CortexR4: Error connecting to the target: (Error -1170 @ 0x0) Unable to access the DAP. Reset the device, and retry the operation. If error persists, confirm configuration, power-cycle the board, and/or try more reliable JTAG settings (e.g. lower TCLK). (Emulation package 5.0.569.0)

I tried the suggested change of settings but couldn't find a configuration which worked.

Do you have an idea where the problem is?

Thanks for your help!

Best regards,

Max

I got this output from the testing routine within the CCS:

The IR/DR scan-path tests used 10.38MHz as the final frequency.

-----[Measure the source and frequency of the final JTAG TCLKR input]--------

The frequency of the JTAG TCLKR input is measured as 10.37MHz.

The frequency of the JTAG TCLKR input and TCLKO output signals are similar.
The target system likely uses the TCLKO output from the emulator PLL.

  • Where you able to get any information regarding this problem?

    Best Regards

  • Hi Max

    I had a similar message when using an XDS100v2 emulator on the evm335x board.  I got around this by reducing the TCLK frequency.  I don't know if you have already tried that.

  • Hi Chris,

    thanks for your answer. Yes I tried all variations to almost all extends but nothing worked. Might there be a problem with the .ccxml Target Config File?

    The one I am using has the following content and was generated automatically within CCS 5.

  • Max,

    Please take a look at this related thread and try setting the "Access Port Designator" as indicated there. Let us know if that helps with the connection.
