PSoC™ Creator & Designer Forum Discussions
Hi, I am looking for the best way to program my PSoC 4100S series project.
Does miniprog4 have all the features of the miniprog3 for PSoC 4 devices? I could not find a table that compares both program/debug kits.
Basically, I just want to know if I could make a mistake by choosing miniprog4 instead of miniprog3. Does miniprog4 have any additional features?
And is it possible to use them with PSoC creator or do I have to export my projects to hex files to program chips with the PSoC programmer software (and how do we export projects to prepare them for psoc programmer)?
Thanks!
Show LessHello,
I've got a big problem with PsoC Creator. For some reason, the software froze when I pressed the program button. I had to end the task from the Task Manager to close it.
Now, PsoC Creator gets stuck at loading : Initializing... Cydesigner.Common.Transport.PPDeviceIO.CyPPDeviceIOPlugin
Sometimes, it does load but I get an error. (see attachments)
I tried to re-install the software but it didn't work.
Can you help me resolve this ?
Thank you.
Show LessSo I'm working on a system in which I've got a PSoC 6 as an I/O and management processor and a small x86 as the main processor. Rev 1 is in house and mostly working, and I'm working on revisions.
The software team is interested in a faster, super low level interface for debugging, and we couldn't think of anything lower level than using the IO Port instructions and the LPC bus, so I set forth building an LPC bus interface into the existing design, which has a bunch of other logic, peripherals, etc.
I was close, but couldn't quite nail the 25MHz performance necessary, at least according the timing analyzer. I set every pin to its appropriate speed class (hoping that prioritizes floor planning), unlocked everything, and bingo! It's all rompin' along with some margin. I lock down the automatically selected (and presumably optimized) pins for the LPC interface, proceed to enter in the existing pinout, much as possible. Press "go!" and not I'm back down below 25MHz.
This seems a little random. Isn't there a way to lock down what works and let the Creator basically route everything around that, or fail and make me move pins. I'm trying to minimally affect the exising very tight PCB layout, and there doesn't seem to be any way other than many hours of trial and error, routing the rest of the design. Or simply biting the bullet and trying to fit the newly allocated pinout.
Show LessIn PSoC Creator 4.3, Configure 'BLE', GATT Settings, GATT/Server/Add Service, one choice is "From File..." Where is the documentation for that? I could swear I've seen this used in some code sample, but I can't find that now, either.
Show LessI'm trying to import a code example.
Start Page -> Find Code Example -> select any example -> install
opens down loader window, then PSoC Creator terminates
documentation window never shows any documentation
Alternatively,
File -> New Project -> Target kit = CY8KIT-062-WiFi-Bt (PSoC 62) -> Code Example -> select any example -> install
PSoC Creator terminates. The project is created.
Sometimes there is an error in Acrobat, "Acrobat failed to connect to a DDE server"
I'm using PSoC Creator 4.3
Why is this happening?
Thanks.
Show LessHi,
Are there any plans to support C++ in PSoC Creator? I'm able to compile c++ using this method (https://blog.mbedded.ninja/programming/microcontrollers/psoc/using-cplusplus-with-psoc-creator/ ), but the IDE just highlights everything in red, thus making it useless for development.
Thanks,
Fred
Show LessHi,
I would like to switch to my upgraded Keil compiler, but I can't.
1) PSoC creator use the Keil 8.16a C compiler.
2) I have the Keil 9.01 C compiler installed in the C:\Keil directory.
3) I specify the correct location in Option->Generic Toolchain->DP8051 Keil Generic
4) In the Project->Build Setting, when I change the "DP8051 8.16" to the "DP8051 Keil Generic" the "Apply" button remain shaded.
Do you know what is incorrect ?

Show LessHi all,
I've got a question regarding the use of a CDC USB-I2C bridge with the Bootloader Host included with Creator.
Specifically, I'm using a CY7C65211-A configured for CDC I2C mode.
Bootloader Host sees this as a COM port, but a UART interface rather than I2C.
According to a thread I made a while back (AN60317: I2C Bootloader supported USB to I2C ports? ) I should be able to use this part for this purpose?
Might anyone know how to get Bootloader Host to see this device as a I2C bridge rather than a UART?
Thanks!
Show LessWe have PSoC Creator running on our Build Server (TeamCity by JetBrains).
Version 4.0 runs nicely. Version 4.2 doesn't.
The issue seems to be the user folders.
If I log into the build server and start PSoC Creator 4.2, when I rebuild a project, I get this log entries:

As you can see, the tool works in a directory that is dependent on the user starting PSoC Creator.
When running autonomously on the Build Agent, the application is started by a service running as system process and has hence no MyDocument folder or anything similar to that. This is part of the output in such a case:
Do you know a workaround to this issue?
Thank you in advance

Show LessHello,
I have a new install of PSoC Creator and I've opened a reference project from the CCGx Power SDK (CYPD3171-24LQXQ_cla). When I open any of the .c or .h files the Code Explorer displays the error "The current document 'Unknown' is not supported for outlining. Supported extensions are: .c, .h, .cpp". main.c is the only open file so shouldn't the Code Explorer work?
Also, when I right click on any function and select "Go To Declaration" (or press F12) nothing happens. It does not go to the function declaration and there is no error message.
Some more info:
-The project compiles OK
-Options->Text Editor->Inline Diagnostics & Autocomplete -> Enable semantic parsing (checked)
PSoC Creator: 4.3.0.1445
Windows 10 Enterprise Version 1809
Thanks,
Daryl
