But I cant control IWR1443 and get raw data.

    Hi Sangwoo,

    Go here to download the last version of the SDK that supported the capture demo.  The user guide that comes with this SDK will explain how to run the capture demo - See section 3.3.2.  If you need help setting up the board, section 3.3 of this guide will walk you through that as well.  Once you have setup the device, you can use this guide to capture the memory with CCS.

    Regards,

    Justin

    Sorry for late reply Justin

    I can run hyperterminal and I did 3.3.2 4_b

    but I cant see global variable gCaptureMCB.stats in CCS Experssions window.

    there are nothing on my window....

    1. connect IWR1443 through hyperterminal

    2. send commands through hyperterminal

    3. connect IWR1443 with CCS

    4. check global variable in CCS

    5. get raw data from IWR1443

    am I right? 

    If i'm wrong, plz tell me.

    And, where can I get more information about getting raw data in detail?

    Hi Sangwoo,

    1) Flash IWR1443 with CCSDeubg.bin

    2) Connect IWR to CCS

    3) Load Capture Demo debug binary (.xer4f)

    4) Run software

    5) Connect with terminal

    6) Send commands through terminal

    7) Capture demo will get stuck in infinite while loop (line 847 in main.c) - pressing the pause button will stop the software somewhere in here

    8) Check global variable - alternatively, check memory location 0x51000000, as this is where the data will be stored.

    9) get raw data

    Regards,

    Justin

    Hi Sangwoo,

    Since this is your first time working with TI's radar devices, I would suggest starting with the Out of Box Demo.  There is an instructional video here that walks through running it.  You can also check sections 2 and 3 of the mmwave sdk user's guide.  Work through this to make sure you have properly set up your development environment.  Once done, you will find it much easier to jump into raw data capture.

    Regards,

    Justin
