Hello,
I am using a Blackhawk USB560 emulator with a TMS320C6416 DSP and the latest version of CCS 4. I have been using my setup successfully for some time. However, I am now experiencing a problem.
I am able to connect to the target successfully and load a .out file. However when I attempt to run the program and then halt it, I receive the following error:
Trouble Halting Target CPU: Error 0x00000020/-1151 Error during: Execution, Processor communication timeout. It is recommended to RESET EMULATOR. This will disconnect each target, perform an emulation reset, and then reconnect each target. Power cycle the target board before continuing.
Power cycling the target and resetting the emulator does not fix the issue. I have also tried reverting to a version of my software that has previously been verified as working and received the same error conditions.
Any insight into the causes of this error message would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris
Chris,
I would first follow the usual suspect. Can you try to run the XDSProbe utility from Blackhawk and check the integrity of the JTAG communications? You can check the section about the Blackhawk emulators in the page below:

If the connection is stable I would then clean the workspace and remove the debugger cached files, as shown in the sections General IDE and Debugger of the page below:

Hope this helps,
Rafael
