CC2650STK SensorTag + Devpak... how to Continuous TX?

It seems that serial number of your XDS110 device is not correct. To change the serial number, use the following steps:

1) Plug the XDS110 debug probe into your computer. Make sure that you only have one XDS110 class debug probe plugged in. The xdsdfu program will attempt to flash the first XDS110 debug probe it finds.

2) Run the following two commands from C:\ti\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds110 directory:

xdsdfu -m
xdsdfu -s xxxxxxxx -r

where xxxxxxxx is a serial number, any combination of letters and numbers, from 1 to 8 characters in length.

I was able to assign a serial number OK, but the device (CC2650 SensorTag) is still not connecting to SmartRF Studio7. In SmartRF Studio7 the list of connected devices now shows as:

> XDS110 (XDS device ID=IOTDUT01), -- Unknown

I guess that means the devpack-debug board is recognized, but it has know knowledge that a SensorTag module is plugged into it - yes???

So, do you have any other suggestiuons for me (or need more info from me)?

I'm not sure if this is related, but out of curiosity I opened up CC Studio to see if it could see the SensorTag... it couldn't. Here's what I did and the result that 'Verify Connection' gave me...

1. Opened up new CCS Project
2. Select the following target...
      Target: SimpleLink Wireless MCU - CC2650F128
      Connection: Texas instruments XDS100v3 USB Debug Probe [Default]
3. Then clicking 'Verify...' returns this message:

[Start]

Execute the command:

%ccs_base%/common/uscif/dbgjtag -f %boarddatafile% -rv -o -F inform,logfile=yes -S pathlength -S integrity

[Result]

-----[An error has occurred and this utility has aborted]--------------------

This error is generated by TI's USCIF driver or utilities.

The value is '-600' (0xfffffda8).
The title is 'SC_ERR_LIB_ANY_LOCATE'.

The explanation is:
A required dynamic library could not be located.
The library isn't on the search path.

[End]

Try to update XDS to latest FW.

1.Disconnect the sensor tag from DevPack

2.Attach DevPack to USB

3. go to c:\ti\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds110 and run the following two commands from this directory:

xdsdfu -m

xdsdfu -f firmware.bin -r

By the way, what is your SmartRF studio version?

I tried that... but doesn't solve my problem (Note: output from xdsdfu -m is shown below).

I'm using current version of SmartRF Studio7 (ver 2.2.1).

I also tried installing the device + TI tools on another Win7 64-bit laptop... same problem there also.

Note: My installation procedure is:

1. Install CC Studio (current version)
2. Plug in debug devpack (loaded with CC2650 SensorTag module)
3. Verify that Device Manager shows the XDS device has installed
   1. COM Ports: UART & Aux Data
   2. Texas Instruments Debug Probes: XDS110 Class Data Port & Debug Probe
4. Install SmartRF Studio

Is that the correct/complete process I need?

Note: I also returned the SensorTag to factory preset (press both buttons for 6seconds)... it didn't fixthe problem either

I tried that... no improvement :(

SmartRF Studio7 list of connected devices still shows "XDS110 (XDS device ID=IOTDUT01), -- Unknown"

You are welcome.
