Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR1642
Hello,
I would like to record radar data in an embedded setup, e.g. the AWR1642 and DCA1000 are connected to a raspberry Pi or Asus Tinkerboard.
I currently have the following setup:
- the AWR1642 has the binaries of the SDK demo uploaded
- the AWR1642 is connected via usb to the Pi
- the Pi sends commands via CLI (from python) to the AWR (e.g. the configuration files provided by the SDK
e.g. like this: https://github.com/PreSenseRadar/OpenRadar/blob/master/mmwave/dataloader/radars.py - The DCA1000 is connected to the Pi via Gigabit Ethernet
- The Pi sends commands via UDP (from python) to the DCA, although I am not sure what commands I need to send(?)
e.g. like this: https://github.com/PreSenseRadar/OpenRadar/blob/master/mmwave/dataloader/adc.py
When I send my configurations, the radar starts measuring (DS3 is on, frames are audible) but on the DCA the LEDs
LVDS_PATH_ERR and HDR_ERR (red) light, together with the DATA_TRANS_PRG (green). The DCA doesnt stream any data over Ethernet.
I use the following config file:
sensorStop flushCfg dfeDataOutputMode 1 channelCfg 15 3 0 adcCfg 2 2 adcbufCfg -1 0 0 1 0 % profileCfg 0 77 429 7 57.14 0 0 70 1 256 5209 0 0 30 chirpCfg 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 chirpCfg 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 2 frameCfg 0 1 16 0 250 1 0 bpmCfg -1 0 0 1 lvdsStreamCfg -1 1 1 0 % guiMonitor -1 0 0 0 0 0 0 cfarCfg -1 0 0 8 4 4 0 5120 cfarCfg -1 1 0 4 2 3 0 5120 peakGrouping -1 1 0 0 1 255 multiObjBeamForming -1 0 0.5 clutterRemoval -1 0 calibDcRangeSig -1 0 -5 8 256 extendedMaxVelocity -1 0 lowPower 0 0 nearFieldCfg -1 0 0 0 compRangeBiasAndRxChanPhase 0.0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 measureRangeBiasAndRxChanPhase 0 1.5 0.2 CQRxSatMonitor 0 3 5 123 0 CQSigImgMonitor 0 127 4 analogMonitor 0 0 % sensorStart
I use the DCA commands from the "OpenRadar" project linked above.
I must be missing something?
Help and hints are appreciated :)
Kind regards
