CCS/AM3359: CCS 7.2, howto config J-Link IP address?

Part Number: AM3359
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SEGGER

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello,

I'm using CCS 7.2.0 on Ubuntu 16.04.  I'd like to debug my app, connect to my board with a Segger J-Link Pro JTAG probe.  How/where in CCS do I configure the IP address of my J-Link?

Regards,

  • David,

    I have only used the USB connection with CCS. In CCS I would just specify that I was using a JLink. Then when I would try to connect a Segger program would start up in the System tray. I would use that to set watchpoints and other features. From what I can find online the J-Link Configurator program is used to set the IP address. So I believe you would run this and then use it to set the IP. CCS just had a connection to a high level driver for the JLink and the Segger software takes care of figuring out which probe to connect to.

    Sorry that I can't provide more info. I find that the team at support_jlink@segger.com is very responsive and I bet they can help get this going quickly.

  • Thanks for the prompt reply. Let me rephrase my question: I know the IP of my Segger J-Link Pro, how to I configure CCS to use that IP address to connect to the J-Link JTAG probe?

    I can not use USB -- the build server is an a different building...
  • David,

    There is no way to do that in CCS itself as that configuration information is controlled by the Segger software. From what I can see online you would need to do it in the J-Link Configurator software or whatever the equivalent is on Linux. I have no experience with that software. The Segger support team would be able to assist.

  • John,

    Let me try again, the Segger J-Link Pro *is correctly configured*.  I know that because I can connect to it over the network with gdb.  The question I'm asking is: how do I configure CCS to connect to it?  Where is the J-Link configuration tab in CCS?  How do I select TCP/IP connection?  And specify the Port and IP address?

    There are "standard" Eclipse plugins for J-Link, but it seems CCS has done its own thing...  Please advise.

  • David,

    There are no configuration options for JLink in CCS other than selecting that you are using a JLink. Segger does the integration with CCS and would be best able to assist you.

  • JohnS,

    FYI, Segger has just released an update which addresses this issue.

    Thanks,
