Required Tools to Compile Tiva Software
B.1 Tiva Tools Installation
To compile the DLP NIRscan Nano Tiva code, the following tools and software packages are required:
• Code Composer Studio (CCS) Integrated Development Environment (IDE) version 6.0.1
• TI-RTOS version 2.10.1.38
• TI ARM Compiler version 5.2.4
B.1.1 Code Composer Studio Installation
To install, follow these steps:
1. Download the latest Windows or Linux version of the CCS IDE for TM4x ARM MCU.
2. Execute the download file: c_setup_win32.exe
3. Accept the License Agreement. Click Next.
4. Select the installation location and click Next. C:\ti is the default installation location.
5. If you are running anti-virus software, you will be warned that it is recommended to temporarily disable
real-time scanning before proceeding with installation.
6. The installer will prompt for processor support. Ensure that under 32-bit ARM MCUs, Tiva C Series
Support and TI ARM Compiler are checked. Click Next.
7. Select the appropriate Debug Probes or Emulators. Tiva C Series are supported by XDS100, XDS200,
and XDS560 Debug Probes from TI, Spectrum Digital or Blackhawk.
• For more information on supported Debug Probes, visit the Tiva Tools & Software page.
• For emulation information visit the TI Emulation Wiki.
• For more information on JTAG connectors and adapters visit the XDS Target Connection Guide.
8. If prompted for apps, there is no need to select any apps.
9. After the installation is complete, update CCS by following the steps in Section B.1.2.
B.1.2 Updating TI-RTOS
The current Tiva Firmware build uses TI-RTOS for TivaC 2.10.1.38.
NOTE: Do not use TI-RTOS for TivaC 2.12.1.33 since the TI-RTOS drivers are different.
If you have an older installation of TI-RTOS, update TI-RTOS with the following steps after launching
Code Composer Studio:
1. Select CCS APP Center from the View Menu.
2. Type "Tiva" in the search box.
3. Update TI-RTOS for TivaC, if offered to update it. To update it, press the select button beneath the TI-
RTOS for TivaC icon and then click on the install software icon to the left of the search box under the
App Center logo.
TI-RTOS for TivaC 2.10.1.38 is found at this link.
