IWR1642: IWR1642 PGM question

Part Number: IWR1642

Hi, 

Our customer encounter PGM recognize problem.

They have IWR1642 demo source can measure 1)breathingRate 2) heartRate curve.

But they can't figure out where is  1)breathingRate 2) heartRate variable array in source code.

Could you please let us know where it is?

Warm Regards,

Lin

  • Lin,

    Please refer to the interframe processing function mmwDemo_interframeProcessing() in the dss_data_path.c file of the DSS source files folder.

  • Hi Kyle,
    Thanks for your reply.
    Is there a guide of the source code for reference?

  • Hi Kyle,

    We would need to modify the C6000 DSP code and M4 code based on TI IWR1642 vital sign demo code for our IWR1642-based product.
    So we would need to check all the different stage signals (data), from RX, all computation stages,... , to breathing rate and heart rate outputs.
    Our problem is that we don't know what variables (or memory sections) to see in the realtime debug mode of CCS.
    Could you please advise/provide the related document?

    Thank you.
    Sincerely,
    Rax.
  • Rax,

    As stated in my original post, the entire processing chain for the vital signs calculations is found in the interframe processing function mmwDemo_interframeProcessing() in the dss_data_path.c file of the DSS source files folder.

    I would also direct your attention to the Developer's Guide that can be found here: dev.ti.com/.../

    The Developer's Guide details all of the variables that are being sent out over UART to the GUI visualizer.

  • Kyle,

    Appreciate first.

    However, our problem is how to monitor all variables in dss_data_path.c file (such as Vital Signs Output Stats,  VitalSigns_Output.breathingRateEst_FFT,  VitalSigns_Output.heartRateEst_FFT, ...,) in CCS using the real time debug mode?

    Cause most of these variables are not static variables. We can't see their values in CCS.

    Or any document illustrates the addresses of these variables?

    Could you please help on this for our very urgent development?

    Thank you.

    Sincerely,

    Rax Wu.

  • Rax,

    The Vital Signs Demo lab has functionality that enables you to save the data from a current session. Please refer to the documentation in the User's Guide for more information. The output data structure is explained there. Make sure you are working with the latest release of the automotive toolbox that is available at dev.ti.com/tirex.

    Regards,
    Kyle
