VC33 CodeComposer and emulator setup are incompatible with Windows 7
How to install and setup VC33 CodeComposer and XDS510USB under Windows 7
2 Solution
- Login as administrator
- "run as administrator" ccs\setup.exe (setup.exe from subdirectory \ccs; standard setup.exe from root or autostart won't work)
- ignore known compatibility problems with Visual Studio and Windows 7
- install program
- restart computer
- login as administrator
- install CC Service Pack 2 ("run as administrator")
- restart computer
- login as administrator
- The following steps are required to install a compatible Windows driver for the XDS510USB emulator. The XDS510USB drivers for Code Composer 3x/4x cannot be installed on Windows-7
- load and unpack SetupCCSPlatinum_V30330.zip from SpectrumDigital homepage
- "run as administrator" SetupCCSPlatinum_V30330.exe
- choose custom installation
- installation path must be the same as the CC 3x installation directory (default c:\tic3x4x )
- connect XDS510USB emulator to a USB port on your PC
- choose manual driver installation, USB driver is located in c:\tic3x4x\specdig\xds510_win64
- "run as administrator" c:\tic3x4x\specdig\sdconfig\SdConfig.exe
- click the red 'R' in the toolbar for emulator reset. The emulator should now be enumerated (small enumeration window on the bottom right corner occurrs) and be reset
- Since the C3x/4x driver installation is incompatible with Windows-7, two files must be copied manually from an existing CC C3x/4x installation:
- copy sdgovc3xusb.drv to directory c:\tic3x4x\drivers
- copy vc33_xds510usb.ccs to directory c:\tic3x4x\drivers\import
- "run as administrator" c:\tic3x4x\cc\bin\cc_setup.exe
- import vc33_xds510usb.ccs, quit and save
- "run as administrator" c:\tic3x4x\cc\bin\cc_app.exe
