Segger RTT doesn't work when the touchgfx is initiated.

[lhz412]

Hello,

I am using the touchgfx designer generated project as template to develop my project.  The DK I am using is the STM32U5G9J-DK1. 

I tried to bring up the Segger RTT viewer feature.  The RTT works well before the ToughGFX initialization.  If I comment out the ToughGFX initiation functions and its tasks [ MX_TouchGFX_Init() & MX_TouchGFX_PreOSInit() ], the RTT print can work in the FreeRTOS tasks.  But once I leave the TouchGFX initialization as it is, the RTT stops working after it. 

It seems the RTT and touchgfx have some conflict, but I cannot figure out the root cause. 

Thank you very much,

Thanks,

Have you asked Segger? RTT is their proprietary thing...

Hello

Im not familiar with RTT but could it be conflict in CRC module. 

Here is some workaround suggestion in another context though:

Br JTP

Thank you for the information.  I just tried your clue and verified that the CRC is not the root cause. But good to know the CRC in the touchgfx could cause some issue.  Thank you.

Hello @lhz412 and @JTP1 ,

 

CRC is used by TouchGFX but only at startup so it should not be the root cause of the problem.

Over the RAM buffer allocated to the RTT?
