Installation Steps

1. Install Code Composer Studio
2. Install Board Support Package
3. Install Emulation Drivers

1. Install Code Composer Studio
Install Code Composer Studio in its default directory:

    c:\ti

If you choose to install Code Composer Studio in a different directory, modify the the path names below to reflect the change. Code Composer studio is not included with the board but can be purchased separately. A 90-day trial version can be found at:

    http://dspvillage.ti.com

2. Install the Board Support Package
Run the Board Support Package installer at the root of the installation CD-ROM:

    SetupEVM6418.exe

The installer will prompt you for an installation directory. Please respond with the location of your Code Composer Studio installation directory. For example, if Code Composer Studio is installed in c:\ti, the Board Support Package should also be installed in c:\ti.

3. Install Emulation Drivers (Spectrum Digital XDS510PP+)
Run the emulation driver installer. It should be named something like SetupOMAP_CCSxxxx.EXE. You can find the latest emulation drivers at:

    http://emulators.spectrumdigital.com/c6000

The installer will prompt you for an installation directory. Please respond with the location of your Code Composer Studio installation directory. For example, if Code Composer Studio is installed in c:\ti, the driver should also be installed in c:\ti.

Test your emulator. Connect the emulator to your target board through the 14-pin JTAG header and power your target. Launch the SDConfig utility from its blue desktop icon. The top left panel is an I/O port address selector with each emulator using a different I/O address based on its connection type and the number of emulators installed. The I/O port address for a single PP+ emulator is 0x378. Select 0x378 and use the Emulator --> Test option to check the connection all the way to the target. The emulator target scan chain length will be printed in the output window if successful (38 for a C64xx DSP).

Configure Code Composer Studio. Launch Code Composer Setup from its desktop icon. Remove any currently configured boards in the "system Configuration" pane at the left and use the "Install Configuration File" option at in the rightmost pane. Using the filter selector, select:

    Family:         C64xx
    Platform:       PP Emulator
    Configuration:  C6418 EVM XDS510 PP Emulator (SD)

You may now launch Code Composer Studio.
