Setting Up the Hardware for the Axiom CMD565, VxWorks RAM Image Example Target Primary Software: LabVIEW Modules>>Embedded Development ModulePrimary Software Version: 1.0 Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A Secondary Software: N/A
Problem: I have an Axiom CMD565 evaluation board. How do I set up the hardware for use with LabVIEW Embedded if I would like to use the Axiom CMD565, VxWorks ROM Image example target? Solution: This target uses the iSystem emulator to download, run, and debug application image. It requires iSystem winIDEA software (2005 Build 9.5.99 or later) installed on you computer. The application image is downloaded to external RAM of the Axiom CMD565 board. The Axiom CMD565, VxWorks RAM Image target has been tested with iSYSTEM iC3000 + Nexus 5xx iTRACE PRO. It uses iOPEN interface to communicate with emulator, so it should work with other iSystem MPC5xx emulators as well. Configuring the hardware1. Configure your board as shown on picture below. This is configuration is recommended by VxWorks BSP documentation for this board.
2. Connect COM-1 to available COM port of your host machine. Make sure that you use straight cable. NULL modem cable will not work. 3. Connect Nexus probe to the Nexus connector available on the CMD565 board and power up emulator and board. 4. Run LabVIEW Embedded and switch execution target to Axiom CMD565, VxWorks RAM Image, launch Embedded Project Manager and go to Target >> OCDI Options. 5. Click on the Hardware... button and make sure that all configuration is correct and that you can communicate with probe (Go to the Communication tab and click on the Test button) 6. Close the Hardware Configuration dialog box and click on the Emulation Options... button. Go to the CPU tab and make sure that configuration matches debug hardware you are using. Go to the Initialization tab and make sure that the memory bar registers are initialized exactly as shown bellow.
7. Close configuration dialog box to save configuration changes you have made. Running an application1. Launch LabVIEW and switch to the Axiom CMD565, VxWorks RAM Image target 2. Launch the Embedded Project Manager by choosing Tools >> Embedded Project Manager... 3. Open terminal on COM port that is connected to the COM1 on the Axiom CMD565 board. The connection speed is 9600 bps. 4. Create simple VI that prints something on diagnostic output using the One Button Dialog.vi. The string that is wired to the "message" terminal will be printed to stdout. 5. Add VI to the project, save, and build it. 6. Hit the download button (on Embedded Project Manager) to download built application. 7. Hit the run button (on Embedded Project Manager) to run built application. Terminal that is connected to diagnostic output should display message the VI prints.
