    Hello Marvin,

    Could you let me know which version of Uniflash and also confirm which files you are flashing on the uniflash? Also, which version on the mmwave SDK are you utilizing?

    Regards,
    Saswat Kumar

    Hi Saswat, 

    Please see the feedback from the customer.

    "Below are the tool versions
    mmwave_sdk_03_06_00_00-LTS-Windows-x86-Install.exe
    uniflash_sl.8.0.0.4026.exe

    Flashed
    C:\ti\mmwave_sdk_03_06_00_00-LTS\packages\ti\demo\xwr18xx\mmw\xwr18xx_mmw_demo.bin

    Failed
    C:\ti\mmwave_sdk_03_06_00_00-LTS\firmware\radarss\xwr18xx_radarss_rprc.bin"

    "Now I am able to flash ''xwr18xx_mmw_demo.bin'' using UniFlash.
    What is the difference ''xwr18xx_radarss_rprc.bin'' and above file?

    After flashing ''xwr18xx_mmw_demo.bin'', I am able to load program form CCS also.

    I need clarification regarding the above files because I have to flash a custom file.
    Any reference manual to generate correct .bin files"

    Please help to advise. Thank you for extending your support.
    Kind regards, 
    Marvin

    Hi Saswat, 

    The same customer for this concern opened another case that seems to be related to this concern. Please refer below:
    "    I am working with AWR1843Boost Eval board for one of our project.
    When i try to load program to AWR1843Boost, i am getting the following error

    And title window showing Source not found.

    Could you help on this issue, it is blocking my work."

    Thinking that this concern is related, I am posting a comment here. Please let me know if I should create a separate thread/post for this concern.

    I hope to hear your advice. Thank you.

    Kind regards,

    Gerald

    Hello Marvin,

    Marvin Cantos said:
    C:\ti\mmwave_sdk_03_06_00_00-LTS\firmware\radarss\xwr18xx_radarss_rprc.bin"

    The radar rprc bin is the firmware for the Radar sub system. This is not the file that you should be using in the uniflash as this is not the right file that needs to be loaded on the uniflash .

    There is no such document, but the radarss firmware .bin is only for providing the radar subsystem not the MSS or the DSS.
    Please do go through the user guide for this, it mentions that the 'xwr18xx_mmw_demo.bin' has the metaImage of the MSS, BSS
    (RADARSS) and DSS (as applicable) application combined into one file.

    C:\ti\mmwave_sdk_03_06_00_00-LTS\docs is the path, please do go through this for more information.

    Regards,
    Saswat Kumar
