Part Number: DCA1000EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR6843ISK
Hi,
I am developing a custom capture flow using the mmWave Studio CLI tool. I have encountered a specific issue when trying to run the CLI on a "clean" PC (one that does not have the full mmWave Studio, DFP, or CCS suites installed).
The Setup:
-
Hardware: IWR6843ISK + DCA1000EVM.
-
Network: Static IP configured at 192.168.33.30. Firewall is disabled for testing.
-
Target: Running mmWave Studio CLI to configure the radar via UART and trigger data capture via Ethernet.
The Issue: On my development PC (where all TI tools are installed), the CLI works perfectly: it configures the device via COM ports and successfully triggers the DCA1000 (Console displays "Capture Triggered").
However, on any other PC without the full TI environment:
-
The COM port configuration (RS232) works correctly.
-
The Ethernet connection is alive (I can ping the FPGA at 192.168.33.180).
-
The "Capture Triggered" command never executes. The console simply skips this step or fails to initialize the DCA1000 trigger without throwing a specific error.
Are there any minimum dependencies (DLLs, Runtimes, or System Paths) required for the mmWave Studio CLI to communicate with the DCA1000 FPGA?
Are there any hidden registry keys or environment variables that the CLI expects to find to enable the DCA1000 trigger functionality?
Thanks in advance.
