It is possible to connect COM Port in IndustrialVisualizer , but i cannot see the Data Stream using "Start without sending config file".

Do i have to change the Python Code?Baudrate for example? (in Putty it shows continues data but only not readable special characters...)

thank you very much :)

Hi,

Could you let us know what versions of the SDK and radar toolbox you are using? We'd recommend updating to the latest versions of the SW, which I've listed below.

mmWave L-SDK: https://www.ti.com/tool/download/MMWAVE-L-SDK (version 5.5.0.2)

Radar Toolbox: https://dev.ti.com/tirex/explore/node?node=A__AEIJm0rwIeU.2P1OBWwlaA__radar_toolbox__1AslXXD__LATEST&placeholder=true (version 2.20.00.05)

Thanks,

Clinton

Hi,

i am using the latest versions. Is there any further documentation available for the configuration of the RANSAQ Parameters? Thank you very much.

Hi,

What particular example are you using right now? Could you let us know what you're referencing by "RANSAQ Parameters"?

If you're using AWRL6432, there is new a feature called "CLI removal" that may accomplish what you are trying to do. If you check the demo user's guide for details on this feature, you'll find information on how to implement this. For example, for the motion and presence demo in the SDK, you could find this in the guide linked below.

Thanks,

Clinton
