Introduction

This example showcases generic data logging using FSI. In order to visualize the FSI packets, a bridge device is required to go from FSI to UART. Then the packets can be visualized using the GUI. The PC GUI being used is GUI Composer. MCU Mission Control within SysConfig helps with setting up the required communication peripheral, packaging of the data, and handling how to export the data. In order to have this example working, selecting the correct COM port and FSI pins are necessary.

Watch Variables

• None.

External Connections

• None.

Steps to Run the Example

• Make sure to set the following variables (GUI_SUPPORT) to generate the GUI for logs, by going to Project Properties -> General -> Variables
• When using CCS projects to build, import the CCS project for the required combination and build it using the CCS project menu (see CCS Build Project).
• When using makefiles to build, note the required combination and build using make command (see Makefile based Build)
• Launch a CCS debug session and run the executable, see Build, Load and Run
• After building, to open the GUI, go to View -> Plugins -> transfer_customlog_export_uart
• If you do not see this in the Plugins view, please refresh the Theia window by going to Help -> Reload Window
