Frequently asked questions

The kit includes the XDS200 USB JTAG Emulator with a CTI20 header, a USB cable, and three adapters: CTI20-TI14, CTI20-ARM20, and CTI20-ARM10. The kit does not include Code Composer Studio or drivers, which can be obtained from Texas Instruments.

The XDS200 needs at least 2 GB of free hard disk space, Microsoft Windows XP/Vista/Win 7/Linux, minimum 1 GB RAM (2 GB recommended), a color display, internet access, a USB port, and Code Composer Studio Rev v5.2 with TI emulator update 5.0.838, or higher.

Connect the included USB cable to a USB port on your computer, then connect the other end to the XDS200. After the XDS200 is recognized, you can connect the female CTI20 pin JTAG connector on the XDS200 to the male CTI20 pin JTAG connector on the target board. If your target board does not use the CTI20 pin connector, you can use one of the adapters included with the XDS200.

Launch Code Composer Studio v5 from the shortcut on your desktop. The Code Composer Studio v5 window will appear. Click the "File" menu, then select "New-->Target Configuration File". In the "New Target Configuration" window enter a file name that describes the emulator connection and/or Texas Instruments processor being used and then click "Finish". The "Basic" configuration setup window will appear. Select "Texas Instruments XDS2xx USB Emulator" from the "Connection" menu and select the target processor being used from the "Device" menu. Click the "Save" button to save the configuration. Apply power to the target processor board. Click the "View" menu and select "Target Configurations" to expose the configuration(s) that have been built or imported. A new tab labeled "Target configurations" will become available in the CCS window. Expand the "User Defined" folder. Right-click on the configuration that has been created and click "Launch Selected Configuration". CCS will now attempt to connect to the target processor through the XDS200.

The XDS200 has two LEDs that provide status information. The left green LED indicates that the XDS200 has booted and is ready for emulation download. The right green LED flashes when there is emulation driver activity.
