Hi, 

Please give us 48 hours to get back to you, and feel free to ping here if you do not get a response. Thank you!

Hi, 

Any updates?

Hi Purvi, 

Sorry for the delay here. 

First I'd like to confirm that this guide is the documentation you are following. Is that correct?

Also have you made any modifications to the demo code? Or are you simply importing the project to CCS and building as is without modifying, then loading and running?

Best Regards,

Josh

Hi Josh,

I'm using the Industrial toolbox for the demo code. This is the link to it.

I have not made any changes to the code, I just imported it from the Resource Explorer.

Purvi

Hi Purvi, 

Thank you. I apologize but I have a few more questions to help me better understand your situation. 

1. What version of the Industrial Toolbox are you using?
2. What version of the mmWave SDK is installed?
3. Can you confirm that you are following all of the steps in the Using CCS Debug guide.
4. Is your device ES1.0 or ES2.0 silicon? If you do not know, please see this thread to help identify.

Thanks and Regards,

Josh

Hi Josh,

1. Industrial toolbox 4.12.1

2. mmWave SDK 03.06.00.00-LTS

3. Yes, I have followed all the steps mentioned

4. My device is ES2.0

Hi Purvi, 

Thank you. Please allow me to attempt to replicate the issue. I will respond here within 24 hrs.

Hi Purvi, 

Sorry again for the delay. I have run the CCS debug procedure for this demo using the same software versions you are using and am not able to reproduce the issue. This is the expected  console output after running. 

Can you please let me know what version of CCS you are using? Also, I'm wondering if you have tried or are able to run the CCS debug procedure with any of the other demos? For example, does the same issue occur if you import, build, load, and try to run the Out-of-Box demo? Or is the issue only seen with this gesture recognition demo?

Best Regards,

Josh

Hi,

My CCS version is 12.1.0, and this issue is only with the gesture recognition demo. Out of Box demo works fine.

Regards,

Purvi

Hi, 

I ran the Out of Box demo for the second time, I got the same error.

Hi Purvi, 

Understood. The issue could be that you are not resetting the device after you changed a switch setting or between subsequent debugging sessions. After each debugging session you must reset the device to ensure the radar front end is in an appropriate state. This can be done either by pressing the reset button on the mmwave icboost or by disconnecting and reconnecting the power supply. Please let me know if you are already performing a reset each time after attempting to run. 

Best Regards,

Josh

Hi Josh,

I rebuild the code every time before launching the target configuration.

Regards,

Purvi

Hi Purvi, 

I understand that you are rebuilding the code between each attempt, and thus you are closing and restarting the debug session each time. But can you also confirm that you are resetting the device each time, either by reset button or power-cycle?

Regards,

Josh

Hi Josh,

Yes I am resetting it every time. Can you confirm the SOP mode that you are using while debugging? Is it SOP[2:0] 001 (functional mode) or 011 (development mode)?

Purvi

This is the latest output:

Hi Josh,

I tried it, it is working now. Thank you!

I wish to control a GPIO (toggling an LED) using gestures. What are the GPIO pins available for that?

Regards,

Purvi

Hi Purvi,

I'm glad to hear that your issue is resolved. Please create a new post for this GPIO question. We will be happy to help. 

Best Regards,

Josh
