AWRL6844EVM: toolbox demo code does not work

Part Number: AWRL6844EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWRL6844

Tool/software:

Recently, I have been trying to develop the AWRL6844. Currently, I am facing an issue where the appimage rebuilt from the project imported from toolbox_2_30 does not work properly when flash into the demo board. It does not output any data after running for 3 frames, even when used in conjunction with the visualizer in toolbox_2_30.

I am confident that there is no issue with my CCS environment because the appimage build from importing the SDK's mmw_demo works fine. I would like to ask if you have any suggestions on what I can modify in the code.

  • Hello,

    Thanks for reaching out regarding your question on the in-cabin demo. I would recommend two things:

    1. Update to the latest Radar Toolbox release, 3.00.00.05, which we rolled out last week. There was some updates to the in-cabin visualizer which should make it more stable. Have you also tested the prebuilt binary in the toolbox and verified if you are running into the same issue or experiencing different behavior?

    2. You mentioned that it does not output any data after running for 3 frames, even when used in conjunction with the visualizer. Just to confirm, have you verified whether you are constantly getting data on the auxiliary data port? You can check with any serial terminal application such as PuTTY or TeraTerm and setting the bit rate to 1.25 Mbps.

    If you are getting data constantly, but its not displaying in the visualizer, this is likely a visualizer issue. You may need to close and reopen the visualizer once or twice for it to parse properly.

    If data output stops after a while, this is likely an application issue. Are you using a modified configuration or one of the existing configurations? If modified, what did you change?

    Regards,

  • Dear Kristien,

    Glad to receive your replying.

    1.I have already tried toolbox3.00.00.05 . The same result happended. I have tested the prebuilt binary. The Debug file couldnt work properly but the release could work.

    2.I checked the output with the serial terminal application and set the correct bit rate.There was no output data after 3 frame.

  • Hey Nick,

    Thank you for verifying the appimage and serial terminal. Two other questions: 

    1. Have you rebuilt the release appimage and tested if it works after flashing? 

    2. Which demo configurations have you tested with - i.e., sbr.cfg, cpd.cfg, and or intrusion_detection.cfg?

    Regards,

    Kristien
