Debugging for DSP56800E
Command Converter Server

Targeting MC56F83xx/DSP5685x Controllers
The M56800E Target panel is unique to DSP56800E debugging. The available options
in this panel depend on the DSP56800E hardware you are using and are described in
detail in the section on “Remote Debug Options”
.
Command Converter Server
The command converter server (CCS) handles communication between the
CodeWarrior debugger and the target board. An icon in the status bar indicates the
CCS is running. The CCS is automatically launched by your project when you start a
CCS debug session if you are debugging a target board using a local machine.
However, when debugging a target board connected to a remote machine, see “Setting
Up a Remote Connection.”
NOTE Projects are set to debug locally by default. The protocol the
debugger uses to communicate with the target board, for example,
PCI, is determined by how you installed the CodeWarrior software.
To modify the protocol, make changes in the
Metrowerks Command
Converter Server window (Figure 8.3).
