I am an new user of CCS and of the AM3359 IDK. I have gotten some nice help using CCS in general from the tools forum, but have been refered to this forum for the following questions.
Most of the debugging tools are intuitive, like breakpoints and stepping. But so far I have not been able to perform a reset/restart sequence. I assume this should be initiated when I am halted. The reset button gives me SW or HW or system reset choices. Which should I choose? I've tried all, and received error messages in all cases. I'm anticipating the future in which my bad code trashes things and I want to do the equivalent of cycling power, but without having to reload. What is the proper sequence to just start over without re-loading?
I chose the enetLWIP_sysbios example to start with and it seems to run. But I would also like to see any "System_printf" messages and "UARTPutString" messages the application generates. Is there some document that tells me how to run this application and view all the diagnostics or demonstrations it has to offer?
I tried following the directions in the "AM335x SYSBIOS Industrial SDK 01.00.00.05 User Guide" for this application "To see the web server, connect the AM335x device to the PC with a Ethernet cable and go to http:/ / 192. 168. 1. 2 using any web browser." It resulted in the message "HTTP Error 403 (Forbidden): The server refused to fulfill the request" Now what? This guide also states "The application also prints status messages on UART console." What is a "UART console"?
Finally, I see that AM335x provides hardware assist for IEEE-1588 (PTP). But I think PTP requires a protocol stack. Does TI provide such a stack, with a driver meant for the AM335x hardware? If not, do they work with a vendor or have some other suggestion? I am thinking specifically about CIP/SYNC, which needs PTP. Does TI support CIP/SYNC in any way?
