Known Issues:
Known Issue #1 - CCS Debug Configuration does not work.
Flashing an image generated with the CCS Debug configuration (which is the default option) is not currently supported. Please switch the project to the release configuration by right-clicking the project, selecting properties->General->Manage Configurations->Select Release->Set Active->Ok->Apply and Close. When the release configuration is selected, it should look like this.
Known Issue #2 - Errors in the Out of the Box Guide for XWRL6432
We have found that there are several errors (broken paths, incorrect references) in the current Out of the Box Guide for XWRL6432. These will be corrected in a future Radar Toolbox release, but for the time being, we have the Corrected xWRL6432 Out of the Box Guide and recommend following this to reduce user confusion.
Resources to get started with CCS:
xwrl6432_XDS110.ccxml - Target Configuration File. Import to CCS by selecting View->Target Configurations, then in the window that appears right-click and select Import Target Configuration. Browse to this file and select Open.

Launch_iwrl6432.js - This is a script which automates most of the steps required to load and run applications on this device in CCS.
- This script assumes you have imported the Target Configuration File linked above
- You must first open the script and update the paths to match your own system
- To utilize this script, first launch the Target Configuration file above (xwrl6432_XDS110.ccxml), then open the scripting console with View->Scripting Console in CCS, then simply call the script with the following: loadJSFile("YOUR\\PATH\\TO\\launch_iwrl6432.js")
FAQs:
Common questions on this new platform will be featured here
FAQ 1 - Error message : "No valid ATE Calibration Available"
If you see this error message, it means that you inadvertently deleted all the flash on the device in the process of reprogramming it. On each device, there is a device-specific Automated Test Environment Calibration that must happen before the device can operate. You can run this calibration by flashing the ATE Calibration Image, found in $MMWAVE L SDK DIRECTORY$\tools\Ate_Calibration\xwrL64xx, onto the IWRL6432 device, putting the device in functional mode and resetting the device to allow the ATE calibration image to run, and store values on the device. Afterwards, put the device back in flashing mode, and flash the application image back onto the device. The error should resolve.
FAQ 2 - Error message :
"Error: mmWave Control Initialization failed [Error code -205848574] [errorLevel 2] [mmWaveErrorCode -3141]
Error: Boot Calibration failure
Error: mmWave Open failed [Error code: -3121 Subsystem: 0]"
This is the same error and solution procedure as FAQ 1
