MATLAB: Do I get the error “DAQ list event file not found” when I try to use External Mode on CCP

c2000calibrationcanccpdaqEmbedded Coderexternallistmodeprotocolti

I am trying to monitor signals on my TI F28377D targets using the CCP (CAN calibration protocol) functionality from TI C2000 Support Package.
When I try to start the external mode simulation, the following error is popping up:
External Mode Open Protocol Init command failed
DAQ list event file not found.
When I try out the example model c28x_ccp_ert.slx, it works well and I can see that an additional file named "DAQ_LIST_EVENT_MAPPINGS" is getting generated. However, no such file is being generated my model, although it has the same configuration settings.

Best Answer

The signals you want to log must be associate with canlib.Signal objects. See the section "Monitor and Tune over CCP" for more information on how to set the model up for external mode over CCP:
https://de.mathworks.com/help/supportpkg/texasinstrumentsc2000/ug/external-mode.html#buphht1-1
After following the above steps, the DAQ_LIST_EVENT_MAPPINGS file will be created and you can monitor the signal in External Mode.
