CCS/AWR1642BOOST: Hello World programm

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST


Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

I tried to implement the 'Hello world' programm of the help description. I could succesfully finished step 2, that is comiling the programm. But I was completly lost how to run the programm, because at the menu of the hammer-button, I could only go in debug mode, but also there the programm did not work.

So my simple question is, how to run the hello world programm in CCS?

Kind regards,

Clemens

    Which help description are you following?

    Are you referring to the "Hello World" template that appears CCS when creating a new CCS project? If so, that is not the recommended path for getting started with the AWR devices. I would instead suggest going through the EVM User's Guide and downloading the mmWave SDK. The SDK also includes User Guide and demo examples to help get started with programming these devices.

  • When the debugger shows up, it stops at the first line of main(). You need to hit the continue button at the top of the screen to, uh, continue executing the program.

  • Hi,

    if I start the debugger by clicking on the bug-button, a failure windows immediately pops up with the information: That the helloworld.out does not match  the target endianness. And I should check the build options and the target configuration file.

    yes I referring to the hello world template when creating a new CCS project. I just thought to start with this programm to get familiar with the CCS. How would be the best way to get familiar with CCS?

    There are several training and documentation resources to get familiar with CCS. I would start with this link:
    http://dev.ti.com/tirex/explore/node?node=ANha1zQMmOmvb3YyOl.H-w__FUz-xrs__LATEST

    The Workshops folder has a set of fundamental workshops that focus on CCS functionality. There isn't one specifically for the AWR devices but you could go through one of the others to get familiar with the CCS side of things, then move over to the mmWave SDK for examples and demos to run on your board.
