c5505 eZDSP emulator

Thank you for this post, it solved my problem.
I had installed CCS version 4.0.0.16000 (which came with my TMS320VC5505 dsp board) on a 64-bit Operating System. When I tried to get software updates, the program gave an error.

While attempting to Connect to the Target board I received the following error: 
Error connecting to the target: Error 0x80000240/-604 Fatal Error during: Initialization, OCS,
And if I tried again, I would receive this error:
Error connecting to the target: Error 0x80002240/-151 Fatal Error during: Initialization, OCS, Control

I had noticed previously that my computer didn't recognize or install any USB drivers after plugging in my board for the first time. After installing the latest version of CCS my board connected fine.  I'm posting this in hopes that others will find the answer in a timelier manner than I did. 

Hi

I am using CCSv5.1 with the TMS320VC5505 ezDSP usb stick. I am facing two problems.

The first issues the messge below, and I do not know where to go to fix this (I am following the directions given on the C5000 disk, and I set the memory model to "huge" ).

=======================================

C:\Texas Instruments\ccsv5\utils\bin\gmake -k all

'Building target: ECE5xx_FIR.out'

'Invoking: C5500 Linker'

fatal error: file "C:/Texas

Instruments/ccsv5/tools/compiler/c5500/lib/rts55h.lib<exit.obj>" has a

Tag_Memory_Model attribute value of "3" that is different than one

previously seen ("2"); combining incompatible files

>> Compilation failure

gmake: *** [ECE5xx_FIR.out] Error 1

gmake: Target `all' not remade because of errors.

==============================

The second is "error initializing emulator", when going into debug mode (for another program).

Thanks for any help!

This is a very generic error. More details are needed to solve this. I first suggest testing your JTAG connection:

Thank you Ki-Soo for your answers!

The first problem happened because I changed the device variant configuration and that caused the memory model to go from "huge" (as it was prior to the change) to "large". I did not realize that until I verified it.

The second problem is unfortunately very generic, but this is what CCSv5.1 gives me back. Luckily I had several boards (old and new) and all presented the same problem, which lead me to look elsewhere. The part that was really upsetting in this whole thing is that within the new target configuration one can find under "Connection Type" about three or four options that make sense, including "Spectrum Digital DSK-EVM eZdsp onboard USB emulator". This is NOT the right one, so why is it even there?

It turns out that the right one (for me, at least) is the Texas Instruments XDS100v2 USB Emulator with the USBSTK5505_VC5505

Thank you again; things seem to be working now.

Bruno,

Glad to see you have resolved all your problems.

This option is for boards/kits that use on-board XDS510 USB emulation. As you figured out, it does not apply to XDS100 on-board emulation. I agree that this is misleading. A note needs to be somewhere that explicitly states this.
