AWR1642: mmWave SDK usage

Part Number: AWR1642


Tool/software:

Hello,
I am using AWR1642 and have some problems about mmWave SDK. My goal is to make a simple obstacle detection radar system and there are a few demos for AWR1642.
As I understand from the SDK user guide, I can import the codes in the radar toolbox to CCS and start the trial process, but since the user guide does not explain the code parts clearly, I could not find many resources on how to use the files and improve for the requirements of the project.
I would be glad if you can help me to understand how to change the codes according to the project and with which steps the demo codes should be transferred to the card also generally how to use mmWave SDK files.I understand flashing the card, using the mmWave visualizer, but the demo code part is uncertain for me.
 I also examined the DSPlib files in the SDK and had trouble importing and visualizing them on CCS. How can I use these dsplib and driver files in the project?
Thank you,
Best regards
Batu
  • Hi,

    We recommend using the SDK 2.1 for awr1642.

    Go to SDK page and check previous versions. 

    After download and install, follow instructions provided in the SDK UG to flash and run the demo.

    These are the first steps you need to accomplish.

    Thank you
