  • Hi Kishore,

    my recommendation(s) and tips:

    1 - my very strong recommendation is to first install the current version (v5.4) with a full new installation into a simple directory like c:/myccs.  You will find many improveements including to the Help :  )

    2 - Inside CCS the actual help is under Help->Help Contents

    3 - Examples are found in the resource explorer Help->Welcome to CCS OR in the new project wizard (limited examples)

    4 - See our great wiki (I have posted the main page and the training page here for you)

    http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Code_Composer_Studio_V5

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

    5 - normally you don't need to "add" anything ... simply press debug.  However depending on the hardware you intend to use you may need to add in a library or you may need to create a target configuration file for your project (file ->new->target configuration file).   However I would start with the examples and workshops as these will get you into these topics as well.

    I hope this helps!

  • Dear lisa, 

    Thanks for your comments and nice documentation and i feel it would be better to provide me basic example files like blinking led project (which is basic in V3.3), i tried to search in v5 ((as when i am choosing the C2000/ TMS320F2835, in examples its not showing)). 

    Thanks

  •  i searched in forum to convert v3.3 to v5.1 and i didnt found any queries and documentation and can you please elobrate stepwise migrating to v5.1  

  • Hi Kishore,

    a few comments

    - I would recommend you go the training link I sent you and start with some of the workshops.   There is even one that uses a c2000 part

    - the error you recieved basically means the code is too large for the device.  This may be the case or else better memory assignment migth be required

    - if you don't need/use BIOS ... the easiest way to migrate is to import your old projects ... Project->Import legacy ccsv3.3 project

    Also again ... I would strongly suggest a full fresh installation of the latest version fully unzipping and installing to a local simple folder.

    Best Regards,
    Lisa
