GUI composer

Hi,

I just want to confirm if I can build a user interface using GUI Composer for C6000 series of devices or not?

I read on wiki, there is support for C2000, TMS570 and Stellaris devices only.

If not, is it possible to add support for C6000 devices and how to do that?

Thanks in advance,

Kushal Patel

  • Hi,

    According to: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Category:GUI_Composer

    C6000 devices are not supported and that's the only info available as for now.

    Regards,

    Gautam

  • You should be able to use latest version of GUI Composer with C6000. We don't test so much on it but there isn't any target dependency that should prevent it from working on C6000 devices. There are some dependencies in regards to the communication transport used (serial is only on microcontroller devices) but you can use JTAG.

    Thanks

  • Just to clarify this a bit further. GUI Composer Designer is part of CCS. You can use GUI Composer within the context of CCS with whatever target CCS supports. The only limitations being on how the target is accessed. Some devices support non-intrusive memory/registers access (we call it real-time), some do not. GUI Composer Runtime is a standalone product that can be used to run GUI Composer Applications that have been exported. You would want to do this for example if you wanted to provide GC created application to your colleagues, customers or maybe test engineers that do not want to/need to install CCS. 

    The GC Runtime currently does not contain files to support C6000 as Guatam stated, but it is something that could be added.
