AWR1843BOOST: AWR1843BOOST

Part Number: AWR1843BOOST

I'm working with AWR1843BOOST module in  which I'm running automated_parking_18xx_mss.
I do flash the binary on the AWR1843BOOST module,

After flashing the binary I do up the application on AWR1843BOOST using the vizuliser link :

dev.ti.com/.../

And get the expected data.


Now, I am trying to automate the process of bringing up the application on the AWR1843BOOST module, supplying power, and sending the data.
For that I found some commands while debuging of which it is calling , are as bellow :


Making up through GUI :

    /* Open the CLI: */
    if (CLI_open (&cliCfg) < 0)
    {
        System_printf ("Error: Unable to open the CLI\n");
        return;
    }
    System_printf ("Debug: CLI is operational\n");



To Make it up without GUI I have called the following :

        gMmwMssMCB.sensorState = MmwDemo_SensorState_OPENED;
        //Task_sleep(1);
        MmwDemo_CLISensorStop(1, CLISensorStopArgs);
        //Task_sleep(1);
        MmwDemo_CLIGuiMonSel(8, CLIGuiMonSelArgs);
        //Task_sleep(1);
        MmwDemo_CLISensorStart(1, CLISensorStartArgs);
        
Can someone help me in this, How to make it run without GUI : dev.ti.com/.../

?

  • Hi Vinay,

    Thanks for reaching out to us over E2E.

    Making up through GUI :

        /* Open the CLI: */
        if (CLI_open (&cliCfg) < 0)
        {
            System_printf ("Error: Unable to open the CLI\n");
            return;
        }
        System_printf ("Debug: CLI is operational\n");

    CLI_open function is not for the GUI purpose. In AWR1843Boost, MSS handles the CLI operations i.e. the UART port where you need to put the configuration for the device to run on. 

    The demo visualizer is just a reference where you can see the detected objects and peaks. If you want to run the demo without visualizer you can ignore it.

    Here are the steps to follow to run the demo without visualizer - 

    1) Connect the UART Com port over Tera Term/Putty like tool that supports serial connection

    2) Give nRESET to the board your CLI will be operational in the Tera Term/Putty

    3) Copy the configuration from the <config>.cfg file and paste it on the UART terminal

    4) [Optional] Connect the DATA COM port over the same serial connection tool and  set the correct baud rate to see the output data
