IP settings does not impact SPI connections.

Also from the screen shot, pls make sure that you first load the .bin files for RadarSS and MasterSS. Then only pls connect the SPI.

Hi,

Can you please share the setup snaps how have you connected the AWR board to DCA and also the SOP switch configuration? What is the version of your AWR1843BOOST board? have you ever been able to connect to this board in past? Are you using the MMWAVE IC Boost or MM DEV pack or DCA1000 only? What is the version of DCA1000? Have you been able to run the OOB demo on it?

If you are connecting the board through DCA1000 only then the SPI connection would be on the FTDI port of the DCA, hence DCA1000 connectivity needs to be proper.
