Compiler/PROCESSOR-SDK-DRA8X-TDA4X: Linux sdk builld issue in setup.sh

Part Number: PROCESSOR-SDK-DRA8X-TDA4X

Tool/software: TI C/C++ Compiler

I have download the ti-processor-sdk-linux-automotive-j7-evm-07_00_01-Linux-x86-Install.bin file, and install it with the guide. install successfully. Then I run the sdk-install.sh, run successfully.

Then I run the setup.sh. I meet the issues like followings:

Board could not be detected. Please connect the board to the PC.
Press any key to try checking again.

As I have no device, I just set no, and then the building is finished. I want to know if it matters when I use the sdk?

  • Hi Zhaojun fan,

    Your steps are fine. This step is needed to connect to EVM. You can always connect to
    EVM once you have directly by the command:

    minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0

    For building & using the SDK the above step is not needed.

    So there is no issue with that. Hope you can resolve the issue.

    Best Regards,
