Hi,
I have also the same problem but with TMS3206716 DSK. It doesn't work also
for me. I have uninstalled all components and CCS v3.1 and installed at first
CCS v3.3 and then this you propose of Spectrum Digital.
Do you know if it has to do with the operating system? I use Windows XP SP3.
The error it shows me is:
Error initializing emulator
I/O Port = 540
Board Name: DSK6416
Cpu Name: DSP_C64xx
Abort: Close Code Composer Studio.
Retry: Try to initialize the emulator again.
Ignore: Ignore the initialization error and start
potentially without target debugging access.
Diagnostic: Run diagnostic utility. (but this is disabled)
(Where can I found a diagnostic utility for CCS v3.3. Isn't it supposed to
be with the emulators of Spectrum Digital?)

That's a wise question. There are valuable stand-alone utilities (i.e. separate from CCS) that make it easier to
debug driver, port conflict, or other basic install/OS issues. One is called SDConfig and the other xdsprobe.
However, SDConfig is intended for use with Spectrum Digital's "general purpose" emulators (XDS510PP, XDS510 USB,
XDS560, etc) that can be used with any target DSP board. In your case, you have a DSK board, which has
self-contained, embedded emulation circuitry, and I don't think SDConfig will work.
Maybe there are other stand-alone utilities that can be used to debug DSK board emulation issues... this I'm not sure
of, as I haven't used a DSK board with the embedded emulation circuitry for some time. Hopefully someone else can
comment on good ways to debug DSK board emulation/JTAG issues.

If I remember right the on-board emulation on DSKs are XDS510 class.
Wont that help SDConfig?
I have not tried it, but just wondering.
