Symphony Studio Install problems

[Csaba]

Hi everybody,

I just received my Freescale Symphony Soundbite v1.0 board couple of days ago. I got familiar with the switches, leds and jumpers (I hope).
Everything is set to factory default. Yesterday all the leds were blinking and by changing the status on SW1 I was able to disable or enable the corresponding leds.
I have to say that I had trouble installing Symphony Studio 1.0.0 cause bitDefender was giving me a " false positive" on the CDM 2.02.04.exe. I reported that to bitDefender!
After changing to Kaspersky install was possible but my problem is that I can't even make a proper build. And I want to figure out if this problem is me not having the knowldege or a bad FTDI 2232 chip.

I get the following error message when I try communicating with my Soundbite board.

Code:

Info:    openocd.c:82 main(): Open On-Chip Debugger ps001 (2007-10-19 18:00 CEST)Error:   ft2232.c:1065 ft2232_init(): unable to open ftdi device: 2Error:   ft2232.c:1080 ft2232_init(): ListDevices: 2Error:   ft2232.c:1082 ft2232_init(): 0: Symphony SoundBite BError:   ft2232.c:1082 ft2232_init(): 1: ( >

 

also I have a lot of errors in my build of the original demo application. That I was gonna download to the dsp to check it's functionality .

I hope some knowledgable person can help to tell me if I am making some errors or simply my board is failing and bad.

Thanks a lot

After trying to solve this problem all day, I installed the 1.1.0 version of Symphony Studio.
Now there are the pull-down menus; but still an error.

Code:

Error:   jtag.c:1156 jtag_validate_chain(): Error validating JTAG scan chain, IR mismatch, scan returned 0x3f

 

I'm really getting desparate. Sitting all day and evening at my computer, trying to solve one error.

Can anyone help me with solving this problem?

- Will Vista be the problem?
- I installed latest version of the CDM driver
- ....

[carrejans]

I have also the same problem.
I follow the guidelines:

Code:

16. Switch to the Debug perspective by clicking on the Debug button at the top right hand side of thewindow.17. Create the external tool for making the hardware connection to the Symphony SoundBite boardby using the menu Run > External Tools > External Tools…18. In the dialog box that comes up, on the left select OpenOCD GDB Server and then click the newbutton (the page icon with the yellow “+”).19. Under OpenOCD Configuration File, choose 56371 in the Device pull down menu and choosesoundbite in the Dongle pull down menu.20. Click Run.

 - First of all; there are no pull down menus like mentioned in point 19. But I chose for my
location: C:\Symphony-Studio\dsp56720-devtools\dist\openocd\bin\openocd.exe
working directory: C:\Symphony-Studio\dsp56720-devtools\dist\openocd\bin
OpenOCD Configuration File: C:\Symphony-Studio\dsp56720-devtools\dist\openocd\bin\configs\56371_soundbite.cfg

The I get this error:

Code:

Can anyone please help me?
Thank you!

check my post ealier, No.9 of this thread. I got rid of this errot that way.

[carrejans]

It seems that openocd tries to open a second device.
That's why I think that maybe something is wrong in the configuration file.

Code:

[Csaba]

Hi Carrejeans,

I think this is a wrong DSP that you are using :

target dsp56374 big run_and_halt 0

should be dsp56371

Csaba

[carrejans]

Thank you for your reply. But I tried everything from this thread; but nothing helped.
The core was "0" by default. So that's not the problem.

Hello Csaba,

regarding the communication error:

I guess you also use some other tools to access your SoundBite, e.g. the AVR GUI demo.

When I use the Symphony Studio only on a freshly powered-up SoundBite, everything works fine.

When I first use the AVR GUI demo and then want to access the SoundBite through the Symphony Studio debugger,

I get exactly the same error.

I guess that the problem is caused by the different access modes - the AVR GUI uses SPI and configures the FT2232

to communicate to the SPI port while the debugger uses JTAG / OnCE. Both parts of the software seem to be incompatible

and not to be usable in parallel.

If anybody out there has a solution for this, I would be happy to learn about it!

regarding the assembly warnings and errors:

You need not worry about the warnings although I would recommend to write your own code in a warning-free manner.

The final error is from the linker. The reason is the path separator. The eclipse project set-up supplied by Freescale

includes single backslash "\ " path separators in the build configuration. These separators get deleted as you can see

at the last line of your output (the issue marked in red):

dsplnk -G -Mmapfile.txt -R..\sb_boardtest_lnk.ctl -B"board_test.cld"  ./boardtest.cln ./process_samples-fig56.cln ./process_samples-fig58.cln ./process_samples-nco-frac.cln ./process_samples-nco-int.cln ./sb_codecs.cln ./sb_eeprogram.cln ./sb_isr_esais.cln ./sb_leds.cln ./sb_switches.cln 

dsplnk: Cannot open memory control file: ..sb_boardtest_lnk.ctl

To avoid this, use Unix-style path separators "/". Perhaps, double-backslash might also work "\\", but I did not test that.

I think you have to edit this manually and probably have to do so also for future projects...

Hope it helps

Hi Schi,

Thanks a lot for your message. I will edit the backslashes to slashes the way you suggested it. That is for the build / warnings.
But all though I can succesfully run AVR GUI to test my board(SPI con. seems to work good). I am not able to communicate with the JTAG/ OnCE connection even if If Reset or disconnect and reconect my board.
Now I would get errors like :

Code:

Info:    openocd.c:82 main(): Open On-Chip Debugger ps001 (2007-10-19 18:00 CEST)Error:   jtag.c:1156 jtag_validate_chain(): Error validating JTAG scan chain, IR mismatch, scan returned 0x3f

 

Let me ask you this . In your debug window do you have this selected :

GBD Debugger:
C:\Symphony-Studio\dsp56720-devtools\dist\openocd\bin\openocd.exe

GDB Command file:
C:\Symphony-Studio\dsp56720-devtools\dist\openocd\bin\FTD2XX.dll


Also I was being updated from Symphony Studio 1.1.0 to Eclipse Platform 3.2.0. I hope that don't matter . Cause minor parts are different. As described in the older  pdfs that are on the net.

Again, thank you for your help

Csaba

Hello Csaba,

please try to start the openocd application a second time. The first time after power up / reset of the SoundBite, there are sometimes (not always:-) these errors. Should go away with a second try (at least it always did for me...).

I think this is mentioned somewhere in the docs, so it is definitely a known issue for Freescale.

openocd and ftd2XX.dll should be fine.

I am just wondering about your Symphony Studio release number. Is 1.1.0 really available? I have 1.0.0. and my installation is not that old, but probably I missed the new release. I did not change anything regarding the Eclipse platform or installation by now, but would probably like to do so later. The Freescale documentation says that there were some adaptations or modifications for the Symphony Studio release, so I am not really sure how well modifying the eclipse part (including updating or adding plug-ins) would work. I would be highly interested in integrating a svn plug-in instead of cvs and perhaps some additional TeX plug-in to ease documentation work. If you would have any experience or hints, I would be happy to hear about.

Regards,

schi 

[Csaba]

Hi Schi,

I did try it two times .. even more . Tried double clicking and another launch window appears for a split second.
It looks like my JTAG/OnCE connection is somewhere bad. Are your SW2 setting default like 110110 (MODE 9)? Also I noticed in Preferences/Tool Config I had 56734_usb.cfg... i changed it to 56731_soundbite.cfg. Not that it mattered . Still had the unable to open ftdi device:2 error message. And I did downgrade to Symphony Studio 1.0.0 just to see if that works, but it didn't.
I have put in a request for replacing my board with Freescale as I can't even load the factory demo batch files .
They sent me a confirmation that it is on the way.
I even measured out suspect traces and solder joints but they seemed fine.So... I'll wait.

Thank you Schi for your concern and help. I 'll notify you when things are finally working .

I am having the same problem.

I got these message when I tried to run the demo app,

Info:    openocd.c:82 main(): Open On-Chip Debugger ps001 (2007-10-19 18:00 CEST)Error:   ft2232.c:1065 ft2232_init(): unable to open ftdi device: 2Error:   ft2232.c:1080 ft2232_init(): ListDevices: 2Error:   ft2232.c:1082 ft2232_init(): 0: Symphony SoundBite BError:   ft2232.c:1082 ft2232_init(): 1: ( >

I also updated the driver of the ftdi device, but got the same results.

[Csaba]

The Soundbite has only one core. And some of the examples are written for the dual core DSPs.

[sonic]

Thanks, Csaba.

I've tried  a demo app and also the assmeble template provided for Soundbite. I suppose these two samples should have the correct settings for 56371.

If duo core is problem, how can I cofigure the code to single core?

[sonic]

I found where I did wrong.

In the Debug settings, the core index should be set to '0'. The default is '1' and I got those error message.

[Csaba]

Yes Sonic,

The first core is "core0" since "core1" is reserved for the second core in dual core DSP's. Out of curiosity what program/demo are you working with ?
What version of Symphony Studio ?

Hi, Csaba,

FYI, I downloaded the sample apps here,

http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=SYMP_SOUNDBITE&fpsp=1&tab=Design_Tool...

The first one is the 'SOUNDBITE_ASSY_TMPL', the second one is a demo contained in 'PRODTEST_DEMOAPPSRC'.
