TMS320F28377S: GUI Composer Error "Communication with Target Failed"

Brenden Fung

Part Number: TMS320F28377S

Hello TI community,

I am currently trying to connect GUI Composer v2 (using google chrome) with my LaunchXL-F28377S. I am currently working off of the blinky example project. All I want to do is modify the code slightly to include a global variable that I can toggle on and off using the GUI composer.

I have been using the following resources to make my gui composer file

https://dev.ti.com/gc/designer/help/Tutorials/GettingStarted/index.html#Tutorials

https://dev.ti.com/gc/designer/help/Tutorials/xds/index.html

In the XDS tutorial, my test connection flashes successfully. When I click run, i get "Communication with Target Failed"

Also, side question, when I am binding the LED switch module to my codes variable, do I simply type the same variable name excluding the type definitions? I am also uploading blinky_cpu01.out for the executable as it's the only .out file I could find in the project folder.

Additional information,

When after I click run, it does say on the bottom that flash is successful and target connected to target. Only when it starts to "verifying connection" does it stoop and produce a "Communication with Target Failed"

Brenden,

I assume that this post is related to your other post here and that the resolution for the GUI Composer issue mentioned there will resolve this as well.

Let us know if that is not the case.
