What options are available in code composer to get data into and out of the processor for testing.
At the moment I am using the load memory to load some precomputed values into a memory location, and then I can validate the code. Is there a way to automate the load memory function so every time I run it, it will 'load memory' at a given point?
Are there alternative ways to send test data to the board for testing through code composer?
Hello,
If the data you are loading is in the *.dat format, you can set a breakpoint at the desired location where you wish to load the data and configure the breakpoint to read data from a file and load a desired amount to a specified location. This can be done from the breakpoint peroperties:
If you are wish to do a raw binary transfer in one shot, you can change the "Action" to "Execute Expression (GEL)" and then specify the GEL_MemoryLoad call to load memory from your file. This option will work for dat, coff and binary files.
GEL_ MemoryLoad(startAddress, page, length, "fileName", "[bitsize]", "[swap]")
For more information on the above GEL call, check the Help documentation that ships with CCS.
Thanks
ki
