CCS: Generate a ccxml Configuration File

By using UniFlash Software, the created file is empty.

Denis,

The ccxml file specifies the debug probe and device to be used. Thus I can't see how you would get that error if it is empty as UniFlash would not even know which drivers to load to talk to the debug probe.

Which version of UniFlash are you using? In the older 3.4 you could manually install the spectrum drivers into it. Is that what you did? With the newer versions there is a way to use the 510 as well but only from the command line: processors.wiki.ti.com/.../CCS_UniFlash_v4.0_SD510_Support

I created the configuration file with CCS.

the connection test is ok and detects 2 devices.

After, I tested with Uniflash software.

I have warnings with a .gel file.

What are the warnings? Guessing I would say it has something to do with not being able to find a GEL file. For example if there are relative paths to the GEL file in the .ccxml then when used from UniFlash I could see issues with finding the file.

Hi,

I'm a colleague of Denis Travers.

The .ccxml file is now generated, the connection test with CCS Studio is also ok.

But we still have an error when we use the Uniflash software commands.

The error is as follows : "Error connecting to the target: Error 0x80000200/-1041 Fatal Error during : OCS, Device driver: Problem with the Emulation Controller. it is recommendeds to RESET EMULATOR. this will disconnect each target from the emulator. the targets should then be power cycled or hard reset followed by an emureset and reconnecter to each target."

We are using Uniflash 3.4.

Hi Thomas,

Are you also able to actually connect to the target using CCS?

Thanks

The only test that works is the connection test.

Other commands makes the following error:

Below the result of the connection test :

[Start: Spectrum Digital XDS510USB Emulator_0]

Execute the command:

%ccs_base%/emulation/drivers/sdjtag.exe -f %boarddatafile% -v -X reset -X scantest

[Result]

** BoardFilePath: C:\Users\F554785\AppData\Local\TEXASI~1\CCS\ti\1\0\BrdDat\testBoard.dat
** Resetting Emulator
-- Emulator is Reset
** Emulator Scan Test
-- Found JTAG IR Length of 76
-- Found 2 device(s) in the scan chain

[End: Spectrum Digital XDS510USB Emulator_0]


And below the error :

Error connecting to the target:
Error 0x80000200/-1041
Fatal Error during: OCS,
Device driver: Problem with the Emulation Controller.
It is recommended to RESET EMULATOR. This will disconnect each
target from the emulator. The targets should then be power cycled
or hard reset followed by an emureset and reconnect to each target.

Can you provide the ccxml file you created?

Hi,

I was able to connect to a system with dual F2812 DSPs and a XDS510USB on Uniflash 3.4.1. 

The .ccxml file I am using is at the end of this post. 

Hope this helps,

Rafael

Thanks for your help, it works with the .ccxml that you provided.
