MMWCAS-RF-EVM: create application response from capture card timed out!! TDA ARM failed error

Part Number: MMWCAS-RF-EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR2243, MMWCAS-DSP-EVM

Tool/software:

Hi,

I'm using the MMWCAS-RF-EVM along with the MMWCAS-DSP-EVM to collect data using mmWave Studio 3.0.0.14. The RF-EVM has AWR2243 radars and is connected to the computer with the required ethernet cable, usb cable, and 12V 5A power supply. I have used the scripts provided by mmWave studio for the cascaded radar and have used the Cascade_Configuration_TestSource.lua for configuration of devices and Cascade_Capture.lua for capturing data. The Cascade_Configuration_TestSource.lua works perfectly but when I run the Cascade_Capture.lua script i'm getting the error: create application response from capture card timed out!! TDA ARM failed error, as seen in the picture below. I have tried restarting the radar along with mmwave studio multiple times as well as restarting my computer but nothing seems to work. Is there anything i'm missing perhaps? Any help will be appreciated.

  • Hello,

    If TDA ARM fails due to "Create Application Response Timeout" error in mmWave Studio:

    This error generally comes when the width and Height is configured "0" for all or some of the devices.

    This can be due to the following reasons: 

    1. There might be some wrong configuration set from your part, kindly check that. 

    2. Sometimes, if the TDA2xx firmware is not correctly flashed, it leads to this error. Kindly refer to the mmWave studio user guide for steps on this.

    3. It might be possible that the SSD is already full. Format the SSD once and try again.

    4. Sometimes SSD not being present or not being detected is also a possibility. Again, follow the steps mentioned in the user guide to make sure SSD is detected properly.

    4. Ensure the TDA2xx board is properly connected to the RF board. A loose connection can also lead to this.

    5. Please make sure you've enabled atleast one RX for the master Device (This is a requirement for studio).

    6. This can happen if you're configuring less number of devices than what was enabled in setting up TDAxx capture card.

  • Hi again,

    Thank you for the response! I reflashed the SD card with the TDA2xx firmware and it solved my issue. Thanks for the help.
