AWR2944EVM: An error in loading the same configuration file based on two OOB FW

Part Number: AWR2944EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR2944

Tool/software:

Hi,

when I load FW as written in SDK from:

mmwave_mcuplus_sdk_<ver>\mmwave_mcuplus_sdk_<ver>\ti\demo\awr2944\mmw\awr2944_mmw_demoDDM.appimag

The local python visualizer (radar_toolbox_3_10_00_05\tools\visualizers\Automotive_Visualiser) works,

but if I load appimag from the Radar Toolbox:

radar_toolbox_3_10_00_05\source\ti\examples\Out_Of_Box_Demo\prebuilt_binaries\out_of_box_2944.appimage

the loading of a configuration is stacked (usually on CFAR configuration).

As I wrote before, I use the latest SDK mmwave_mcuplus_sdk_04_07_00_01, so the SBL I still take from the same location:

SBL (mmwave_mcuplus_sdk_<ver>\mmwave_mcuplus_sdk_<ver>\tools\awr2944\sbl_qspi.release.tiimage).

So, the question: what is wrong?

The configuration that I load is:

adcCfg 2 0
adcbufCfg -1 1 1 0 1

  • Hi Arie,

    Prebuilt binary of Out of Box demo in radar toolbox is based on 4.4.1.2 SDK demo. I suggest you to use the configuration provided in 4.4.1.2 SDK. There are changes in the CLI commands and improvements in latest SDK which are missing in prebuilt binary that you are using.

    Note: Out of Box demo in radar toolbox has the CCS projectspecs for the SDK demo. 

    Regards,
