AWR1243: HSDC Failed to Initialize

Gabriel Virbila

Part Number: AWR1243

I am launching HSDC to capture data. It is finding the board but a second window opens with the following message, “No firmware. Please select a device to load firmware into the board.”. I am at this point unable to capture data and mmWave Studio has the message "HSDC Pro Initialization Failed" at the Script Message Output. What am I missing?

Is there a way to transfer the data directly from a Lua script without launching HSDC?

Gabriel,

Are you using the TSW1400 device to capture raw data? If so, when you see this message come up, you need to load the firmware onto the board. You should download the mmWave DFP, which can be found here: www.ti.com/.../MMWAVE-DFP

This installation will include the file that needs to be loaded to the TSW1400. Please also refer to this training video here: training.ti.com/mmwave-sensor-raw-data-capture-using-tsw1400-board

Kyle

It is the TSW14J56 Evaluation Module (EVM).

Gabriel,

Please follow the steps in my previous post. But also be aware that TI has only tested with the TSW1400 and DCA1000 devices when capturing raw data from our AWR1xxx devices. TI cannot guarantee performance on any other device. Please read through the documentation provided in the DFP.

Regards,
Kyle
