CCS/CC3200: Segger J-Link option not available on CCS 7.4.0.00015

Part Number: CC3200
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SEGGER,

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I've re-installed CCS multiple times ensuring to install the Segger components. I've also updated the software.

However, when I go to project properties > General > Project tab > Connection, I don't see a Segger J-Link option. Is is supposed to be in here. The instructions on Segger's website indicate that it is.

  • Hi,

    For CC3200, there was an issue fixed in the most recent version of the Segger J-Link software package (6.30.3.0).

    After installing this, creating a CC3200 project should show the device normally.

    Hope this helps,

    Rafael

  • I've now downloaded and installed the latest Segger J-Link 6.30.c package.

    I don't have "cc3200" as an available target. See image below.

  • Hi,

    From your picture, the target is already selected as CC3200. This drop down is simply a filter that you can type the device name to find the correct one.

    That is what I did in my previous screenshot. I simply typed "cc3200" to find the device I needed.

    Regards,

  • Okay, understood. In that case, I still don't have a Segger J-Link option in the "Connection" drop-down list.

    I also uninstalled and then re-installed CCS 7.4 and then subsequently rebooted my PC.

  • Hi,

    Did you update your CCS with the latest version of Segger utility? Sometimes a pop up at the bottom right of the screen tells you that updates are available, but you can always go to menu Help --> Check for Updates and select the Segger J-link updates.

    Installing this update should allow you to select the Jlink with CC3200 devices.

    Hope this helps,

    Rafael

  • Thanks. That gets me one step closer.

    However I'm still unable to setup the Debug Configuration. Is this documented somewhere? I'm not having luck finding instructions here.

    Here's what I'm seeing. It still shows Stellaris, but I can't change it. Note: I did select Segger J-Link in as was shown in previous posts here.

    In the left, window, there should be a "GDB SEGGER J-Link Debugging" option, correct?

  • Hi,

    Despite CCS uses the standard Eclipse Debug Configurations interface to set multiple advanced settings, the basic setup (Debug Probe and Target Device/Board) is done by the "Target Configuration Editor", which generates a "Target Configuration File" with a .ccxml extension. For details about that, check section "Target Configuration files" of the Debug Handbook page at:
    dev.ti.com/.../

    That said, in conversations with the folks in the device team they mentioned that creating a new project from the Wizard is not recommended - ideally it is desirable to start with one of the SDK projects:
