IWRL6432BOOST: AppImage not running properly

Part Number: IWRL6432BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWRL6432

I'm able to run the application from the CCS debugger successfully. But when I flash the appimage to the board using low power visualizer provided in the SDK, the program doesn't run as expected (we were able to know, because the config is sent from CLI, but it doesn't get past the first command from the config file). In the debugger after loading the program, we load a binary file from the SDK at a memory address as explained in the CCS debug guide of IWRL6432, from my understanding that binary file is not part of the appimage, so we are getting errors. The appimage is built with both debug and release build targets and the SDK version is MMWAVE_L_SDK_05_02_00_02.

  • Hello,

    Few questions just to be sure. After flashing the device in flashing mode, you set it to functional mode? What CFG are you using to test this? When running the application from CCS debugger, how are you sending the CLI commands is it a tool like TeraTerm or PuTTY? Have you tried any other visualizers such as the Industrial Visualizer in the Radar Toolbox found in the TI Resource Explorer?

    Best Regards,

  • After flashing the device I am setting it to functional mode (sidenote: I was able to run successfully other prebuilt appimages of example projects provided in the SDK and the radar toolbox). The CFG I am sending is taken from mmWave sensing estimator, when running in the CCS debugger it was working fine. I am using the Industrial Visualizer found in the Radar Toolbox when running the application in the CCS debugger and when trying to run after flashing the appimage.

  • Hello,

    Can you provide screenshots of what you are seeing? It will make it easier for me to see exactly what is going on. If you are using the Industrial Visualizer in the Radar Toolbox make sure the CFG file has an empty line at the bottom so that sensorStart is sent. But you are saying you are having issues at the very first line of the CFG so I would like to see more.

  • I was able to solve the issue. I imported the motion and presence demo project to the CCS and moved the source code of our application to it and was able to flash and run the appimage properly.

    Previously I was importing the IWRL6432_gesture_recongnition project to the CCS and using it as a project structure, we added our application source code.

    So from this, it seems like the project settings of IWRL6432_gesture_recongnition was misconfigured compared to the motion and presence demo project.

    So do you have any idea which project setting would have affected the final appimage output of IWRL6432_gesture_recongnition?
