AWR2944EVM: CFG file

Part Number: AWR2944EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR2944

Tool/software:

Hi Experts,

How can I permanently save the.cfg file I configured myself on AWR2944EVM? Currently, after each power-off AND restart, the configuration file needs to be resent through the "LOAD CONFIG FROM PC AND SEND" function of mmWave_Demo_Visualizer.

Is this possible?

regards,

Marvin

  • Hello,

    By default the OOB demos are waiting for the configuration every time they are turned on. There is a demo in the radar toolbox called the "high_end_corner_radar" demo that has a permanent configurations hardcoded into it so every time it is powered on it automatically starts running. The demo is present in the following path

    C:\ti\radar_toolbox_3_20_00_04\source\ti\examples\Automotive_ADAS_and_Parking\high_end_corner_radar

    You can see the hardcoded configuration in this specific .h file.

    "C:\ti\radar_toolbox_3_20_00_04\source\ti\examples\Automotive_ADAS_and_Parking\high_end_corner_radar\src\demo\awr2944\common\chirp_design_HECR.h"

    You can use this demo as a base for your application.

  • Hi Gabriel,

    I operated according to Method B of the Hard Coded Config User Guide. The intermediate process and result are shown in Figure 1 below. Then I jumped to E:\ti\mmwave_mcuplus_sdk_04_07_00_01\mmwave_mcuplus_sdk_04_07_00_01\ti\demo\awr294x\mmw to rebuild the OOB project. The intermediate process is shown in Figure 2 below. I downloaded the newly generated appiamge file to the AWR2944EVM, but the HCC function was not implemented. May I ask where I went wrong during my operation?

  • Hello,

    Several questions

    Where is hard coded config use guide you have mentioned?

    Also can you provide the error you receive as well?

    I wan to run this on my end and see if I can recreate.

    Best,

  • Also there is a section at the following location called "How to bypass CLI" that has more info regarding hardcoding the config. Also the HECR demo is an example of this being done
