AWR1243BOOST: Radar Studio error when using TSW1400 EVM to capture ADC data.

Part Number: AWR1243BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR1243

Hello,

       I want to use AWR1243EVM+Devpack+TSW1400EVM to capture raw ADC data. And I just follow the approach from

https://training.ti.com/mmwave-sensor-raw-data-capture-using-tsw1400-board?cu=1128486 . After I selected the values in the Config tab of Radar Studio and clicked the  button:SetUp TSW1400, TSW1400 ARM, the Radar Studio output windows showed the following error :

       I have installed the Matlab runtime v8.5.1 win32 bit , and my computer install the Matlab 2014b. If the Matlab runtime v8.5.1 win32 bit conflicts with existing Matlab 2014b.

 Can anyone help me? thanks a lot !

    Jason,
    This is not the issue with Matlab runtime engine.
    I see that your SPI connect and RF powerup are not successful.

    [21:34:09] [RadarAPI]: ar1.PowerOn(0, 1000, 0, 0)
    [21:34:09] [RadarAPI]: Status: Failed, Error Type: RESP TIMEOUT
    [21:34:09] [RadarAPI]: ar1.SaveSettings('C:\Users\DELL\AppData\Roaming\RSTD\ar1gui.ini')
    [21:36:01] [RadarAPI]: ar1.RfEnable()
    [21:36:01] [RadarAPI]: Status: Failed, Error Type: INVALID INPUT

    Can you send the snapshot of the RadarStudio after loading the firmware ?

         Thanks for your reply. Here is the snapshot of the RadarStudio after loading the firmware:
    snapshot_1

    When i kicked the buttun"SPI Connect", the SPI Connectivity Status is still red. then i kicked "RF Power-up",the output window showed:
    [20:54:41]  [RadarAPI]: ar1.PowerOn(0, 1000, 0, 0)
    [20:54:41]  [RadarAPI]: Status: Failed, Error Type: RESP TIMEOUT
    [20:54:41]  [RadarAPI]: ar1.SaveSettings('C:\Users\DELL\AppData\Roaming\RSTD\ar1gui.ini')
    [20:56:50]  [RadarAPI]: ar1.RfEnable()
    [20:56:50]  [RadarAPI]: Status: Failed, Error Type: INVALID INPUT
    [20:56:50]  [RadarAPI]: Error Occurred in Port open close
    And i kicked "SPI Connect" again, SPI is connected.

    then I kicked "RF Power-up" again, the bss/mss firmware version is missing. just like this:

    snapshot_2

    and the output window showed:
    [20:57:31]  [RadarAPI]: ar1.PowerOn(0, 1000, 0, 0)
    [20:57:31]  [RadarAPI]: Status: Passed
    [20:57:31]  [RadarAPI]: Unknown Async event recieved(0)
    [20:57:31]  [RadarAPI]: ar1.SaveSettings('C:\Users\DELL\AppData\Roaming\RSTD\ar1gui.ini')
    [20:58:27]  [RadarAPI]: ar1.RfEnable()
    [20:58:27]  [RadarAPI]: Status: Failed, Error Type: RESP TIMEOUT
    [20:58:28]  [RadarAPI]: Warning: Mismatched MSS firmware version!
    [20:58:28]  [RadarAPI]: Warning: BSS firmware version Mismatch!
           Now  i konw the RF Power-up is failed, but i still don't how to solve it. And i guess that the power supply for AWR1243EVM is wrong. I use 5V/1A power supply  rather than 5V/>2.5A becase there is no enough power supplying 5V/>2.5A. maybe the power supply caused the fail of RF enable. and i will change the power supply as soon as possible.
          Thanks,
    -Jason

            I'm sorry for that the snapshots can't upload. I have tried many times but it can't work. the first snapshot is after loading the firmware, the BSS firmware version: 1.7.0.4(19/04/17) ; the MSS firmware version: 1.7.0.0(31/03/17) ; The second snapshot is after kicking the "RF Power-up"again, the bss/mss firmware version :0.0.0.0(00/00/00).


           Sorry for that!

            I have changed power supply for AWR1243 EVM ,but it doesn't work , the same error occured. the RF Enable failed .

           I don't know where is wrong? Can you help me?

    Hello Jason,

    Which firmware are you using?

    Please be sure to use the firmware found at C:\ti\mmwave_dfp_00_07_00_04\rf_eval\rf_eval_firmware.

    Regards,

    Adrian
