CCS/IWR1443BOOST: Error Importing Project to IDE, Device Not Recognized

CCS/AWR1642BOOST: Error Importing Project to IDE, Device Not Recognized

Matt Boyd90

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR1642, , IWR1642, IWR1642BOOST,

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

When I attempt to import the AWR1642 Obstacle detection project  from CCS Version: 8.1.0.00011 , using the  import Project wizard  from the following location:

 C:\ti\mmwave_automotive_toolbox_2_4_2\labs\lab0002_short_range_radar\src

I get the following error: 

See details below.
Error: Device is either 'null' or is currently not recognized by CCS. See 'Help > Check for Updates' or visit CCS App Center to get the latest device support.
Error: Device is either 'null' or is currently not recognized by CCS. See 'Help > Check for Updates' or visit CCS App Center to get the latest device support.

When I attempt to download the project from the Resource Explorer within Code Composer Studio I get the following error for both the DSS and MSS projects:

Error importing project. Device-id "AWR1642" is not recognized!

I've followed the guidelines listed in the document here:

http://localhost:53797/content/c:/ti/mmwave_automotive_toolbox_2_4_2/labs/lab0004_obstacle_detection/docs/obstacle_detection_user_guide.html

and I have all the SW listed as specified.

Please Note: I've been able to use the Short Range Radar Demo PCGUI, but I' also unable to download that project.

Any Suggestions?

    Hi Matt,

    The Obstacle Detection Sensor (ODS) lab (mmwave_automotive_toolbox_2_4_2\labs\lab0004_obstacle_detection) only supports the AWR1642BOOST-ODS EVM and will not work properly with the IWR1642BOOST EVM (they have different antenna designs). However, that lab is essentially just the mmWave SDK mmw (out-of-box) demo for that board. You can find the mmWave SDK mmw (out-of-box) demo for IWR1642 at the following link.

    Hi John,

    Sorry, I've accidentally mis-labelled the Boost unit I'm using. I'm actually using an AWR1642Boost. I am unfamiliar with how to change that in this thread....

    I'm trying to build a mmwave project for the AWR1642Boost. I'd like to be able to compile the Short range radar project, but I get the above error when I attempt to import it into CCS 8.1.0.00011

    Thanks for your assistance,

    Matt

    Matt,

    I changed the title and tags of the thread to show AWR1642BOOST.

    Just to clarify, the lab path you mentioned previously (mmwave_automotive_toolbox_2_4_2\labs\lab0004_obstacle_detection) is the Obstacle Detection Sensor (ODS) lab and will only work with the ODS version of the EVM (AWR1642BOOST-ODS).  If you actually want the Short Range Radar lab which supports the normal AWR1642BOOST EVM then it is located at:

    C:\ti\<automotive_toolbox_install_dir>\labs\lab0002_short_range_radar

    Can you confirm which version of the board you have?

    Regards,
    John

    Matt,

    Are you able to download the automotive toolbox zip file from the TI Resource Explorer page?

    thank you

    Matt,

    Did you also make sure to install the drivers for the mmWave Sensor devices in CCS? If not, you can do so by performing the following steps:

    1. Help -> Install New Software
    2. "Work With" -> "--All Available Sites--"
    3. select "mmWave Radar Device support"
    4. select "Next"
    5. Follow the on-screen steps to complete the installation of these drivers.

    Regards,
    Kyle
