CCS/TMS320C6455: CCS will break down if click suspend when debugging my code

Part Number: TMS320C6455

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I bought a new computer with Core I5 7300. I installed CCS 5.5 and the emulation drive and my computer can identify the emulation correctly. When i debug my code, I click the resume button there is no problem. If I click suspend , there is nothing changed but the suspend button become gray. Then I click terminate and this button become gray,too. Then I cant click anywhere in the CCS window and I can only close it from task manager. My code can be run without problems on my old computer with CCS 5.5.

  • Hi,

    The new computer may be using a new Operating System such as Windows 10 or Ubuntu 16.04, which is not officially tested with CCSv5.5. In the past I was able to install and use CCSv5.5 on Windows 10, but given this OS has been changing radically over the past years there is a possibility some functionality may be starting to fail. Unfortunately there are no reports of people trying to install CCSv5.5 on Ubuntu 16.04. 

    Per your description it seems to me the code loaded to the target caused it to fail and therefore CCS lost control over the device but it is taking a long time to timeout. The exact reason is hard to pinpoint, but it may well require you to go through sections 3 and 4 of the Troubleshooting page

    A lesser possibility is if these delays are being caused by other aspects of the environment such as USB3.0 ports or certain USB chipsets (which may cause issues with XDS200 debug probes), also make sure there are no USB HUBs that may be causing performance issues. 

    I will try to find any additional information and post it here.

    Hope this helps,

    Rafael

  • Thank you for your answer . I check my USB driver, and there is no problem. My computers are both using win7 32bit . I also tried CCS 6.2 and the problems are the same. My emulation is SEED-XD560PLUS .
  • I also tested my DSP6416 on my new computer and there is no problem. 

  • Hi,

    Thanks for providing the information about the JTAG debugger and the OS. Unfortunately we here don't have much experience with this Debug Probe, therefore I strongly suggest you contact SEED DSP for additional help.

    Also, the post below contains some useful information collected by another developer using SEED products. The tips there may be helpful to you.

  • Thank you for your answer . I use XDS100v2 instead of SEED-XD560PLUS and my problem is resolved .
