TSW1400EVM: automation

Part Number: TSW1400EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ADS42LB49

Dear sir/madam:

I use TSW1400EVM for automation test. TSW1400EVM worked well  with GUI. When I tried to connect board with python automation DLL(64bit), It showed error 7004 which meant "Board handle not found".

I got the board number from GUI "K1316383-TSW1400", 1316383 was shown on board sticker. I set board number as "K1316383-TSW1400", "K1316383","1316383-TSW1400","1316383". Nothing worked.

My script is as below:

from ctypes import *
import os

'''******************************** Loading the HSDCPro Automation DLL ****************************************************'''


dll_path = "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Texas Instruments\\High Speed Data Converter Pro\\HSDCPro Automation DLL\\64Bit DLL\\HSDCProAutomation_64Bit.dll"
HSDC_Pro = cdll.LoadLibrary(dll_path)

Boardsno = "K1316383-TSW1400" #Serial Number of board to be connected. Eg: "TIVHIV9Z" or "TIVHIV9Z-TSW1400"
Devicename = "ADS42LB49" #ADC device to be selected(should be same as what appears in the HSDC Pro GUI selection drop down box.

Datarate = 50000000 #ADC output Data Rate

TimeoutinMs = 30000

'''*************************************************************************************************************************'''

print "Connecting to board : " + Boardsno
Err_Status = HSDC_Pro.Connect_Board(Boardsno,TimeoutinMs)
print "Error Status = " + str(Err_Status)

Is there any solution?

Thank you

Andy

    Hi Andy,

    Have you tried replacing the "1" with a capitol letter "I"? I have seen this cause issues before. Additionally, please double check the FTDI device handle in the opening dialog box when launching HSDC Pro.

    Best Regards,

    Dan

    Hi Dan,

    Thanks for your reply. I checked board no again, there is no "I" in it.

    Is it because of the 64bit DLL path?

    dll_path = "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Texas Instruments\\High Speed Data Converter Pro\\HSDCPro Automation DLL\\64Bit DLL\\HSDCProAutomation_64Bit.dll"

    Do I have to move it to:

    dll_path = "C:\\Program Files\\Texas Instruments\\High Speed Data Converter Pro\\HSDCPro Automation DLL\\64Bit DLL\\HSDCProAutomation_64Bit.dll"

    Thank you

    Andy
