CCS/TIDA-00096: building the project

Part Number: TIDA-00096
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ADS1293

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I'm missing something in the setup of the project TIDA-00096: I open the project with CCS8 but I don't see how to build. When I issue the "build project" nothing happens. I don't see how to make progress past this state. I see others have built the project and have the ECG project going, but I'm missing it.

Thanks,

Chris

  • Hi Chris,
    TIDA-00096 are IAR based 8051 projects. You can build them in IAR for 8051 target. Please follow instruction on firmware development platform in this app note www.ti.com/.../tidu195a.pdf
  • Hi,

    The file tidu195a.pdf has everything about the project except, perhaps, how to build it. If the project is distributed under the CCS IDE, shouldn't it build there too? Didn't it originally build there? Having to purchase the IAR tool is putting this project just a bit further out of reach. Apart from the compiler, what's the obstacle?

    The "HeartRate" project doesn't look like an ECG readout program. All the major files are named heartbeat*.c or something similar.

    After opening the project in CCS, selecting "Build" at the top level or any other level doesn't appear to do anything. I've made little changes for white space and saved the changes, but that doesn't trigger a make.

    What am I missing? I hope there is something that I missed. I don't want to reconstruct the project to get it build.

    The file tidu195a.pdf is out of date with respect to the project: the iPhone application is gone because the link (paragraph 4.1.1, "TIDA-00096 iOS Application Software") is broken: it leads to a page not found on www.ti.com. Not having a means to read out the data from the ADS1293 is a serious problem with the project.

    What does this project actually do at this point? It seems really broken.

    I've spent a week going through the design and schematic, updating the BOM and asking for a quote from a fabrication house. We need a demonstration of the ECG function but it looks like I'm going to have to add that capability back into the code once I figure out how to build it.

    Thanks,

  • Hi,
    I don't think 8051 is supported by CCS. Can you show a screen shot of your IDE with the project open? I am not sure if this project is distributed under CCS.

    You can use the link for information on IAR support for 8051 devices by TI.

    Thanks,
