IWR6843AOP: Inquery about Small Obstacle Detection and Visualizer

Hi IWR6843 Champ !

My customer is testing the Small Obstacle Detection Demo using the IWR6843AOP. The "Start" button is visible in the Demo Visualizer, but how can they send a "Stop" command?

Please guide us on the proper way to stop the demo.

Also, during operation, the following error occurs. Could you please let us know what this symptom means?

  • Hello,

    There are a few ways to stop the sensor. Within a configuration file (.cfg), they can open it in a text editor and go to frameCfg to set the "number of frames" to a finite value. 0 means infinite. You can also send "sensorStop" over CLI. If recording data, hitting reset connection button should save and stop the last file being compiled to save.

    The TLV Header Parsing Failure can be ignored and is an artifact of the Python Visualizer's multithreading implementation. It is not due to the chip itself. If multithreading is removed from the source code and everything ran linearly, this error would no longer occur.

    Best Regards,
