CCS/CC3200: SimpleLinkGeneralEventHandler ID = 2 Crash system

Hi there,

I built an application on my CC3200 LaunchXL board that basically connects the CC3200 to a WPA2 network and then opens/closes SSL socket to send data.

After several hours of test I receive this message on UART

[GENERAL EVENT] - ID=[2] Sender=[0]

After that message the system freeze completely. I have a specific task that act as heart beat and after that message the led blinking stops. This task only toggles a led. The second task manages the connection and socket.

What does error means?

This is my SimpleLinkGeneralEventHandler:

void SimpleLinkGeneralEventHandler(SlDeviceEvent_t *pDevEvent)
{
    //
    // Most of the general errors are not FATAL are are to be handled
    // appropriately by the application
    //
    UART_PRINT("[GENERAL EVENT] - ID=[%d] Sender=[%d]\r\n",
               pDevEvent->EventData.deviceEvent.status,
               pDevEvent->EventData.deviceEvent.sender);
}

Hi,

What version SDK do you use? Do you have uploaded latest ServicePack?

Please read this threads:
- e2e.ti.com/.../2004118
- e2e.ti.com/.../2103953

I think in your case you should restart CC3200 SoC when this error issue occurs. How to restart CC3200 - e2e.ti.com/.../2099680 /in your case do not call sl_Stop(0)/.

Hi Jan,

I use SDK 1.3.0 and I installed the latest SDK Service Pack (CC3100_CC3200_ServicePack_1.0.1.11-2.9.0.0).

I also wrote this function to reset the board:

  /* Stop Network Processor */
  sl_Stop(30);
  /* Configure the HIB module RTC wake time */
  MAP_PRCMHibernateIntervalSet(330);
  /* Enable the HIB RTC */
  MAP_PRCMHibernateWakeupSourceEnable(PRCM_HIB_SLOW_CLK_CTR);
  /* Enter HIBernate mode */
  MAP_PRCMHibernateEnter();
  /* CPU reset */
  PRCMMCUReset(TRUE);

I shouldn't call the sl_Stop? May be the same for PRCMMCUReset?

Thanks!

Hi,

It is good to call sl_Stop() before reset, but in this particular case it can cause issue. You should try it. In first test you should try code with sl_Stop() but if code will still freeze, than you will need remove sl_Stop(). This is my best advice.

BTW... line PRCMMCUReset(TRUE); in your code is not necessary, because this line never to be executed.

Ok Thanks.

I try with sl_Stop() function call and the system reset. But to be sure I remove sl_Stop in order to reset the system anyway.

What do you think about the error "[GENERAL EVENT] - ID=[2] Sender=[0]". I can't find any explanation about the type of the error and its cause.

Maybe the only way to resume the system is with a reset?

Thanks Jan!

Hi,

I think there can be more reasons of errors reported by GeneralEventHandler. I am not sure of many reasons of this errors. SoC reset is easiest way how deal with fatal errors. In your case you have Sender SL_ERR_SENDER_HEALTH_MON (see. links at my first post).

Yes, I Agree.

Thanks Jan for the help!
