CCS/OMAP-L138: RTSC example does not build

Part Number: OMAP-L138
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320C6748

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

We have CCSv7 installed and work on a Zoom-Board, see (https://www.logicpd.com/dev_kits/zoom-omap-l138-experimenter-kit/).

Everything works fine with plain applications. However, we are not able to generate a project using SYS/BIOS. Opening an example from the TI Resource Explorer and importing an example for the TMS320C6748 into CCS works fine until it asks for RTSC configuration settings.

We tried various targets and platforms but got buid errors.

Is something in our installation missing? What would be the right settings?

Many thanks

  • Urs,

    You will need to select an older version of XDC tools that does not have "_core" on the end. 4 years ago the platform content moved from the XDC tools into the software products (SDKs, SYS/BIOS...). When XDC Tools has "_core" on the end it means that it does not have the platform content. You can try clicking on the dropdown box in that dialog to see if you have an appropriate version of XDC Tools installed.

    If not I would try the one here: software-dl.ti.com/.../index_FDS.html

    If you install it in C:\ti\<xdctools version> then CCS will detect it automatically the next time it starts up.

    Regards,

  • Hi John

    Thanks for your help. In fact, we have XDCtools also with the version 3.25.3.72.

    But the target and platform dropdown boxes are still empty and do not allow for any selection. What could be wrong with the installation?

    Thanks a lot

  • Urs,

    I setup the same environment on my windows machine.  

    For me the Target filed is automatically being populated and I am able to select a platform.  Try entering the same value as below in your target field and see if that enables you to select a platform.

    Regards,

    John

  • Everything's fine now. My target field didn't populate and I had to fill in "ti.targets.elf.C674". After this the system started to read all its available platforms from disk and I could choose an appropriate platform from the list. It compiled, linked, and ran smoothly.

    Many thanks
