I am trying to run a very simple program on my F28335 experimenter's kit from TI (the docking station with the F28335 ControlCard).

I have opened the blink283x program in Vissim, under the Delfino examples in the 'Embedded' section. I believe that the example program does compile, but when I click on the 'Download' button to download the program to the experimenter board, I get the following error:

'TI Driver Error -4037, ?'

How can I resolve this error?

    We recommend you use Uniflash from TI which you can download here. The first time you will need to create a config file like so:

    Select 'File > New Target Config...'

    In 'connection' select Texas Instruments XDS100V2 USB (or F28335 eZdsp or whatever JTAG you use)

    In 'Board or Device' type 'F28335' and pick whatever target you use

    Do a file Save to 'F28335_xds100v2.ccxml' (or save to <target>_<jtag>.ccxml) so you don't have to go thru above steps ever again.

    To flash your program do the following:

    Select Program > Load Program

    Navigate to your .out file ( in /vissim80/cg/)

    Click OK and don't touch power to the target until flashing is done.

    Next time you open Uniflash, just look for your saved config under the File menu and skip the config file creation.

    I too am having the same issue. How does one specify the target config.

    The example states: First setup proper Embedded > MCU Config... > JTAG Connection (use TI XDS100 for TI controlCARD)

    Where is this? I am running a trial of VISSIM.

    Open VisSim menu item: Embedded > Delfino > F28x Config... to get this configuration screen:

    And choose your JTAG link in the dropdown.

    Dear All, I am facing the same problem in running Delfino examples on my F28335 eZdsp board. Every time I compile and try to download my code into RAM 'TI driver Error -1137 & TI driver error - 1142' occurs. I am setting 'F283x eZdsp USB' in 'JTAG connection' of F28x Config dialog.Please tell me how can I fix this driver error for my eZdsp.

    Thanks and best regards.

    Dear Hammi,

    Are you using Uniflash as per AndrewD's instructions? Are you getting the error in VisSim?
