CCS/TMS320F280049: Can't debug F280049 in CCS V9 with XDS110 probe

Part Number: TMS320F280049
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH, CC2650

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Everything worked great in CCS V8.x.x and I can flash with Uniflash...

In CCS v9 i keep getting the error:

Error initializing emulator:
(Error -2071 @ 0x0)
Internal error: Missing or corrupt application file. Restart the application. If error persists, please report the error.
(Emulation package 8.1.0.00005)

I've checked that I'm running the 2-pin advanced mode in the config file... Restarted numerous times...  Not sure what to try next.

  • I'll add the Console out as it seems it's related to CLA1_0...

    Console Error:
    CLA1_0: Error initializing emulator: (Error -2071 @ 0x0) Internal error: Missing or corrupt application file. Restart the application. If error persists, please report the error. (Emulation package 8.1.0.00005)
  • Hi,

    Please apologize for the inconvenience. I could reproduce this but I still need to investigate further. I will report back next week with additional information.

  • Hi,

    I filed today the critical bug DBGTRC-4821 to address this scenario. In about half hour, its status can be verified in the link SDOWP in my signature below.

    I could verify this does not happen with other F28x devices (I tested F28377D) and other cJTAG-enabled devices (I tested CC2650). It also does not happen with CCSv8.3.0 with the updated TI Emulators Compoent 8.1.0.00005.

    At this moment I have no workaround to it. Sorry.

    I apologize for the inconvenience,
    Rafael
  • Hi Rafael -

    I am having the same problem using the HSEC100 demo board for the 280049C.  It works with CCS 8.x but not with CCS 9 with the same error code and symptoms that Kyle Miller described.

    I tried a few more things (I am a long-time CCS developer) and found that only the F28004x models that contain a CLA processor exhibit this problem.  I am successfully getting the 280045C emulator selection to run on the 280049C processor with CCS 9.0, but I do not presently use the CLA.  The 28F0045C is identical to the 28F0049C except it is missing the CLA.  Hopefully, this might be useful to Kyle and others if they are not using the CLA until TI releases a formal bug fix for CCS 9.  I am also using CCS 8.x without issues, as you suggested.

  • Don,

    Thanks for sending the additional insights.

    I should have replied earlier; yesterday a developer found out exactly what you mentioned: the CLA is the responsible for the failure.

    In addition to your suggestion, you can also bypass the CLA entirely in your F280049C target configuration. Simply click on the tab Advanced and check the box as shown below:

    The bug report is still active, but this is a valid workaround if you are not debugging this core. 

    Regards,

    Rafael

  • The by-pass of the CLA worked and I can debug now.  Thankfully my CLA stuff is all working, I don't need to debug that right now.

  • Thanks, Rafael -
