Why my CCS6.0.1 no "Scripts" menu?

I installed the CCS 6.0.1 last year to develop the TMS320F28025, now it's time to release the firmware, but I can not find anywhere to download the firmware into the chip?

    Hello,
    Are you implying that a menu item under the Scripts menu is missing? Or that the entire Scripts menu is gone? A screenshot showing this would be helpful.

    Note that items under the Scripts menu come from loaded GEL scripts and DSS scripts. Hence it sounds like you were using some GEL or DSS function to load/flash the chip. It is likely you can simply mimic the actions in the function to load/flash the chip. Without more details about your environment, it is had to give more advice.

    Thanks

    Thanks for your reply. I mean the menu under the Scripts. My actual question is when I use the emulator to run the program, everything works good, but when I disconnect the debugger and switch to stand alone mode, the system works, but not everything is right. That's why I doubt I did not burn the bin file into the flash instead of using the the emulator to load the program and simply disconnect the emulator and remove the jumper to let the system go to stand alone mode.
    Do you have any suggestion about this problem?

    The most common reason of what you describe is that when you run via CCS debug session, a GEL startup script is being used to do some required target initialization. This seems to be the case since you mentioned the Scripts menu - which is often used by GEL and DSS scripts. When you run standalone, that initialization is not being done so the same program would not run correctly. Make sure any target initialization done in your GEL startup script is handled in your bootloader or application.

    Chapter 5 of the below app note discusses this a bit:

    Thanks. I read the Pdf you suggested. It helps, but is still not good enough to cover my problem. It seems like my problem is not the emulator vs stand alone because in stand alone mode, I measured the clock is right,the interrupt is right and the CAN communication is right. These are pretty much everything I did except the motor control part. I will figure it out.
