connect to the XDS110 failed

Hi,

I haven't been able to solve this for some time now.

I've followed suggestions in this forum but still nothing works.

I tried reinstalling everything, still nothing.

When I connect the sensortagDevPack, it doesn't appear in the Driver Manager

C:\ti\ccsv6\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds110>xdsdfu -e

also tried at

xdsdfu -e

I've installed the latest XDS Emulation Software Package. Still nothing

Tried to debug in CCS... failed as expected

Cortex_M3_0: GEL Output: Memory Map Initialization Complete.
Cortex_M3_0: Failed Board Reset 
IcePick_C: Error connecting to the target: (Error -260 @ 0x0) An attempt to connect to the XDS110 failed. The cause may be one or more of: invalid firmware update, invalid XDS110 serial number, or faulty USB connection. The firmware and serial number may be updated using the xdsdfu utility found in the .../ccs_base/common/uscif/xds110 directory of your installation. View the ReadMe.txt file there for instructions. (Emulation package 6.0.14.5)

I don't know what else should I try doing. Suggestions? or I'm missing something here?

Thanks,

Adila

    By that you mean you don't see the entries below?

    If so, I would suspect the USB cable, the port or the DevPack itself are faulty. You can try to re-connect to different USB ports or change the cable.

    Also, do you see a green LED lit on your devpack? That could be another indicative of a faulty board.

    Regards,

    Hi Rafael,

    Yes I don't see the entries.

    I tried several USB cables and different USB ports. Still nothing

    I can see the green LED lit on the devpack. So it most probably faulty board?

    Thanks,

    Adila

    Adila,

    I am really short of ideas on this issue, given the fact Windows completely refuses to recognize the pod.

    As a last resort, can you try to force a reinstall the XDS110 drivers? From a command prompt, do the following:

    cmd_prompt said:

    Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]
    Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.

    C:\Users\user>cd \ti\ccsv6\ccs_base\emulation\windows

    C:\ti\ccsv6\ccs_base\emulation\windows>DPInst64.exe /f /path .\xds110_drivers

    After that, unplug and re-plug the sensortag and see if Control Panel recognizes the pod.

    Hope this helps,

    Rafael

    Hi Rafael,

    Still nothing. 

    It does say the "drivers were successfully installed"

    Is there anything else that you think I should try to solve this?

    I tried plugging on another laptop, it doesn't detect it as well

    Thanks,

    Adila

    Adila,

    With all the tests you reported, I can't help but think your Devpack is really broken. I would either return it (if purchased recently) or buy another one (I don't think the cost of repair is lower than a brand new).

    Regards,

    Rafael

    Hi Rafael,

    Turns out the fault is with my cables. I tried with 3 cables and all 3 had failed me - those cables only work with phones, not with sensortag it seems

    I only found this out when a colleague of mine tried it using his cable.

    It might be a good idea to have the cable included with the DevPack in the future

    Thanks,

    Adila

    Adila,

    Hah, I got this problem as well in the past - several USB cables provided with phones only have the wires to provide USB power, not data. I now clearly put a marker on them saying "power only" to avoid confusion.

    In any case, thanks for reporting this! It will surely help others in the future.

    Best regards,

    Rafael
