Hi, When I load data into external sram on my target hardware I've got to preset SYSCON to 0x7010. If I fail to do this the portion that loads to external sram fails to verify (ie, load properly). When I'm running from flash I have the boot-kernal set SYSCON before it loads the program. Anyone know if there is a way to have the VisualDSP debugger preset this register before it loads the .dxe image? I.e., with a script file or some such? Presently I manually set this register each time I reload. Thanx... |

Initializing registers in VisualDSP debugger...

I had the same problem. I don't have the manual here, but I think
that there is a section (maybe an appendix) in the VDSP Debugger Manual on writing TCL scripts for use in the debugger. I wrote a quick script that I call on startup of the debugger to add a menu to the toolbar that I use to reset the processor and set the SYSCON and WAIT registers. It is shown below (it is nearly a copy of an example in the documentation). proc SpecReset { id } { dspset \$SYSCON 0x00007010 dspset \$WAIT 0x35ad45a6 set sysval [ dspeval \$SYSCON ] set waitval [ dspeval \$WAIT ] puts [ format "Processor Reset, SYSCON = %s, WAIT = %s" $sysval $waitval ] } set id [ dspaddmenuitem "MV1100:Reset" SpecReset -info "Demo menu item" ] puts [ format "Menu ID %d installed.\n" $id ] I found this to be a big time-saver. Good luck. Derek ----- Original Message ----- From: <> To: <> Sent: Wednesday, January 03, 2001 4:09 PM Subject: [adsp] Initializing registers in VisualDSP debugger...

The debugger has a built-in TCL interpreter, and this was greatly enhanced with the new C++ support (although I haven't investigated the details of the enhancements). You can specify a TCL script to invoke on the debugger command line, and you could poke the register in that script.
