Problem with Codewarrior USB TAP

[Etxeondo]

  Hi

   I have buy a new 56F8037 demo board, I have installed CW R8.0, when a I connect the USB TAP the System operation install it correctly, after the install a can see:

  - Control Panel \ System \ Hardware \ Management Devices \ Device of system \ Codewarrior USB TAP

  Light TX/RX is in green and blinking the light RUN/PAuse is off.

   I inicialize a new project wizard with Processor expert.The program compiles, links and when it is going to communicate with the DSP56F8037 it gives an error me:

                                        CCSPrtocolPlugin: CCS Disconnected Cable

 In Codewarrior Connection server, I have the following messages:

   I have and other demo board (DSP56F8013), all works correctly with the parallel programmer of AXIOm (JTAG-DSP/AXM0337), I prove the board of the DSP56F8037 with the parallel programmer and works correctly and connect USB TAP in board of 56F8013 and have the same error (CCSPrtocolPlugin: CCS Disconnected Cable). When I prove with a programmer the other is disconnects. I have verified which the configuration of CW R8.0 with USB TAP is correct:

 Edit \ Preferences \ Debugger \ Remote Connection \ (see attach image for configuraion)

 It seems that It is all correct one. I do not know where it is the problem.

Let me summarize what you've seen just to make sure I've got things straight.

1) The parallel port programmer works with both boards, so you know it isn't a board problem.
2) The USB cable doesn't work with either board.

This leads me to conclude that either the USB cable is bad, or there's a driver problem. Looking at your communications log, I see that the IDE is still trying to use the parallel port, lpt1. So, things aren't happening because the IDE still thinks it's talking to a parallel port. (Look at the line just past the "Executing autoexec.tcl..." phrase.)

How to correct this? See if there are any debugger settings for the project (Edit | YourProjectName Settings...), where you might pick the debugger interface. (The IDE setting should take care of this, but obviously it hasn't.) You may want to select the device driver in the Window hardware panel and right-click it to see if the driver is actually enabled.

Also, try building a project from scratch using the CodeWarrior Project Wizard and see if you can select the USB cable as the debugger interface, then try that on the board. HTH.

  Hi, TOM

  I think that the problem is in the IDE(CW R8.0) configurations but nothing with the documentation is said that it encloses with the development kit.

  I can see that the driver in Window hardware panel is actually enabled.

  I'm using wizard of CW, At any moment the any wizard (Simple Wizard, Processor Expert Wizard,..) asks that type of programmer you are going to use, for that reason I consult the options of configuration of remote to debugger,.

  I consult the menu Edir\preferences\Debugger\ Remote connection. I do not completely understand the options that are indicated, (en imatge attach) are 6 types of "connections", three for old cores and three for new cores.
1. - Local Hardware Connection - Paralel connection?
2. - The Premises USBTAP Connection - Usbtap
3. - Simulator.

 If I want to form some option of the USBTAP I press on change button (attached image), but there is no option to choose this programmer like favourite, I dont know what I must modify to indicate to CW that my present programmer is the USBTAP and not the parallel.


   Thanks.

In the previous answer there is some error

   Thanks, TOM

    I have understood a little better the operation of CW, the election of the type of debugger is not made from main menu:
 edit \ preferences \ debugger \ remote connections

They are made from main menu:

edit \ smm pROM_xRAM settings... \ Debugger \ remote debugging.

Now I have selected the USBTAP and I believe that everything works correctly.

Thanks, by everything.
