IWR1642BOOST: What firmware am I supposed to load into IWR642BOOST to get the demo to run? UniFlash in manual mode still not giving rss/mss option

Part Number: IWR1642BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH, IWR1642

All those issues I had before were with a AR1443EVM-010 board. My TI rep said this was old and gave me an IWR1642BOOST board instead. So I'm trying again to run the demo with this new board.

Is the IWR1642BOOST not come with any firmware? The visualizer GUI just says waiting for data and won't establish connection.

I have the mmwave_sdk with the radarss demo so I'm trying to download that again.

I'm still having the same Uniflash problems. I attached the images. I'm in "Manual" mode. I select the device and serial. But the firmware load still only shows me a list of meta images, there is no rss/mss option.

What firmware should I be loading? I have several bins in the SDK, the

xwr12xx_xwr14xx_radarss.bin

xwr16xx_radarss_rprc.bin

xwr16xx_mmw_demo.bin

xwr14xx_mmw_demo_mss.bin

etc.

    Hello Ashley,

    For the IWR1642, you only need to load one image: xwr16xx_mmw_demo.bin. The should be loaded at Meta Image 1.

    This binary is found at C:\ti\mmwave_sdk_01_00_00_05\packages\ti\demo\xwr16xx\mmw.

    For the XWR16XX, the mss and bss are included on a single binary.

    Regards,

    Adrian
