XDS100v3 installation

Hello Jean-Marc,

Typically you don't need to use the xds100serial.exe utility as the XDS100v3 on the SmartRF06EB will work out of the box with a properly installed CCS v6.1 with CC26xx device support. What specific issue are you encountering?

Regarding the documentation, thanks for the feedback. The "ccs_base" is used for some IAR installations for the XDS emulator, but CCS uses a different path.

Best wishes

Thank you very much for the answer.

I am trying to gain control of my SensorTag CC2650 (and not CC2640 or else).

Trying to find the real source code, which is not sure yet because I found something named the same on the Ti Resource Explorer.

For the confusion TI is a champion...

I desire to load the source code to an IDE (now I chose CCSv6)

Then want to make small changes and try to flash my Sensor CC2650. Insisting on the CC2650 because on the documentation we often find info about the CC2640 or some other products. (SIG)

I also like to have a real binary code of my shipped sensorTag to be able to reflash it in case I made some errors or founds some buggy software.

I am in the learning curve on this sensor, but made already other development on other products on BLE.

I cannot find a tutorial to follow that check I do nothing wrong. I now our job is and will never be easy but here I am somewhat lost.

On the CCS I can see something like my XDS100v3 but get errors. I can see it but if I click connection test I get errors.

On the device manager (Windows 8) I can see a "Stellaris Device Firmware Upgrade" connected !!!! What is this???

I am supposed to find an XDS100v3 no?

But?? Can we flash the SensorTag with CCS?? Or do we need another tool?

Any serious tutorial or documentation about the XDS100v3 and the CC2650 only and not crossed info with older products?

On other products like Android, using Eclipse I can run my application from Eclipse and load my app directly from here.

On CCS I can see only the debug run.

By the way I reinstall The BLE Stack v2 at least 4 times. I also noticed (written in another forum thread) that the SensorTag can compile if install in the disk D: of you PC.

I did it finally but had to change lots of link pathes in the properties...

So much questions I know but when TI says we are up and running in the cloud in a few minutes with SensorTag they maybe forget that we need weeks to run CCS and find a tutorial in the jungle of PDF. (Sorry I mean for me which begin with TI products).

Thank you again if you can guide me better on this sensor documentation.

Sorry make a correction to my previous note:

"I also noticed (written in another forum thread) that the SensorTag cannot compile without errors if install in the disk D: of you PC.W

Update:
The debugger does not shows anymore as "Stellaris Device Firmware Upgrade" but "XDS110 class data port" and "XDS110 Class debug probe".
I did plug the battery in my SensorTag and this made the difference.
Still cannot connect, shows an error at the test connection:
SC_ERR_LIB_ANY_LOCATE. The explanation is: A required dynamic library could not be located. The library isn't on the search ...

Thanks if someone can help.
