vs3emu problem

Post by ghare »

Hi all,

I am trying to use the command-line tool vs3emu to test code on a VS1000D. The example 'Hello World' code compiles and links but when I try to run the binary, I get the following messages. I suspect it is something to do with the "could not read memory-description" bit. I am using a sparkfun VS1000D breakout board with a 29f2g08aad memory chip (256MB). The memory device seems to be working ok, as the demo file that comes pre-loaded plays no problem.

Any help greatly appreciated, thanks.

Hi!

You need to run VS3EMU from the subdirectory, which has the mem_desc file.

Try something like:
C:\> cd \vskit134\vs1000bc
C:\VSKIT134\VS1000BC> path %PATH%;c:\vskit134\bin
C:\VSKIT134\VS1000BC> build hello
