How to solve the problem of unsupported board/processor "f28377" in Matlab2017a?

I am trying to connect my c2000 board TMS320f28377S to simulink for code generation, when I check for board support using the following command:

    checkEnvSetup('ccsv5','f28377')

and the result is

Error using checkEnvSetup_private
Unsupported board/processor "f28377".

I know that Matlab2017a supports this board.

Note: I am using matlab on ubuntu 16.04

Any idea how to solve this problem?

Could you confirm that you have the C2000 Support Package installed? I have checkEnvSetup even though I do not have that package installed.

Yes, it is installed. Simulink library has blocks for the f28377s board also.

Hi,

You need to have CCS V6 or later to work with C2000 F2837xS processors.

Please follow this documentation link for more details.

I have ccs v6 already installed.

Hi , first of all checkEnvSetup command work only for idelink communication , since you're using c2000 f28377s and CCS6 you should communicate with the target through a makefile approach . make sure that all the following steps are verified :

1. controlSUITE and CCS6 should be installed preferably in the same location (like C:\ti )

2. make sure to install a compatible compiler (check compatibility from the link : https://www.mathworks.com/support/compilers.html)

3. install Embedded Coder Support Package for Texas Instruments C2000 Processors .

the installation is straightforward , at the end you should locate the installation folder of controlSUITE and CCS6 so matlab can use them when needed.
