Part Number: IWR1642BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MMWAVE-SDK

Tool/software: Linux

I flashed it with the latest SDK MMWAVE-SDK 02_00_00_04 and tried to run the roslaunch ti_mmwave_rospkg rviz_1642_2d.launch. it comes back with these errors every time I try to run it:

[ERROR] [1530638367.446125181]: mmWaveQuickConfig: Command failed (mmWave sensor did not respond with 'Done')
[ERROR] [1530638367.446182486]: mmWaveQuickConfig: Response: '{?Eg?'

Hi Eli,

Please check the following threads which discuss similar issues and troubleshooting instructions. Also, please check if your EVM has an ES2.0 device as mentioned in the second thread below to make sure that you're using the correct version of the ROS driver lab.

1. Linux/AWR1642BOOST: AWR1642 ROS driver error

2. Linux/AWR1642BOOST: AWR1642 ROS driver does not work with SDK 2.0 but 1.2

3. Linux/IWR1642BOOST: ROS Point Cloud Visualizer Errors
