I'm hoping for some pointers. I have CCS5 (just installed, latest version) running on Windows 7, 64-bit, and a BeagleBone, rev A5, recently purchased from digikey. I have installed the FTDI drivers. I am following these instructions:
http://beagleboard.org/static/beaglebone/latest/Docs/ccs-jtag-simple.htm
I can run the bbone target configuration file; that seems OK. However in the debug window I right-click on the "XDS100v2 USB Emulator_0/CortxA8" and select "connect target", and I get the following error message:
Error connecting to the target:
(Error -151 @ 0x0)
One of the FTDI driver functions used during
the connect returned bad status or an error.
The cause may one or more of: invalid emulator serial number,
blank emulator EEPROM, missing FTDI drivers, faulty USB cable.
Use the xds100serial command-line utility in the 'common/uscif'
folder to verify the emulator can be located.
(Emulation package 5.0.681.0)
Taking this advice, I ran the xds100serial.exe tool, and it gives this:
C:\ti\ccsv5\ccs_base\common\uscif>xds100serial.exe
Scanning for XDS100 emulators...
VID/PID Type Serial # Description
0403/6010 blank EEPROM unknown no description available
The VID/PID looks correct - other information I've found does say those are the expected numbers for a rev A5 board.
I've no idea if that EEPROM is supposed to be blank or not. But certainly the CCS error message would suggest it's not meant to be blank.
Just for fun, I tried reprogramming the EEPROM by following the instructions here:
http://circuitco.com/support/index.php?title=BeagleBone#Code_Composer_Studio_Issues
however that made no difference (re-running the xds100serial tool showed no change).
Any ideas what's going on, or what else to try?
Thanks very much.
