my SPI Connectivity status is showing disconnected.. WHY?

I have already choose the correct BSS & MSS file for my AWR1843. I loaded firmware for both the files and clicked SPI connect button but as you can see it is still not connected why?

Hi,

There is a switch on the BOOST EVM that is used to switch between SPI and CAN functionality. Please check the EVM User Guide for location of the switch and make sure it is in SPI functional position.

Next, make sure that the SOP switches are in the position required to work with the DCA1000 board.

thank you

Only one power is needed. The second is optional. 5V/3A for EVM should be fine
