AWR6843ISK: Issues using the mmWave Studio and Programming the board with Uniflash

Part Number: AWR6843ISK
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH, , DCA1000EVM

Tool/software:

I am trying to use example code to evaluate the AWR6843ISK + DCA1000EVM, and I can't get the AWR board to respond to Uniflash. I have the two COM ports setup with the silicon labs drivers but Uniflash responds 

[7/7/2025, 4:27:55 PM] [ERROR] Cortex_R4_0: XXXX Received unexpected data!!!XXXX
[7/7/2025, 4:27:55 PM] [ERROR] Cortex_R4_0: Not able to connect to serial port. Recheck the COM port selected.

I have played with the DIP switch settings already, but it should be (in order) ON OFF ON ON OFF N/A according to the datasheet. I have tried this docked on the DCA and standalone. 

I am also getting issues with mmWaveStudio, I am able to step through the connection process with the DCA, but SPI connection fails the same as this thread: https://e2e.ti.com/support/sensors-group/sensors/f/sensors-forum/1086440/iwr6843isk-status-failed-error-type-resp-timeout-and-mss-power-up-async-event-was-not-receive  . I am trying to format Sflash but the above error is preventing me from doing that.
