CCS/IWR1443BOOST: About Firmware downloading

Son, Dong-seong

Part Number: IWR1443BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR1443

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi

I am testing IWR1443BOOST with the example source, water_vs_ground

I did everything according to water_vs_ground_lab_user_guide.pdf

water_vs_ground program works well.

but after turning power off and on again, the program doesn't work.


What should I do if I want the program to work well after I turn off the power and turn it back on?

Could you explain how to download firmware into AWR1443?

    Hi Son, Dong-Seong,

    I don't understand what you mean by program doesn't work. Are you saying if you power cycle the board or you restart the demo through the visualizer?

    You should always power cycle your board (either reconnecting power supply or pressing SW2 nRST button) after running the program each time.

    Hi Akash

    I loaded xwr14xx_water_ground_lab_mss.xer4f in the [Load Program] dialog of Code Composer Studio.

    Then, I press the Run button

    The program, water vs ground, operates well.

    when I tried to connect with GUI, DroneWaterDemo_GUI.exe, GUI shows me some graphs and data.

    I think the program ( water vs ground on the board ) operates well.

    I wanted the program to operate well without CCS.

    so I closed the CCS, then I powered cycle the board. ( of course, I closed GUI )

    then, I executed GUI again, and tried to connect the board with GUI.

    I expected that GUI would show me the graph and data because the program ( water vs ground ) was already flashed into the board.

    but there is no change on the GUI, I think GUI doesn't receive any data from the board because it didn't operate.

    I just want the program to operate alone except for CCS.

    I don't know how to flash a program on the board and let the program work alone ( without CCS or debug mode)

    Do you understand what i want?

    please, help me!! 

    thank you

    Hi Son, Dong-Seong,

    The .xer4f is simply a runtime executable which can only be used in Debug Mode while CCS is running. You'll want to run your board in Deployment mode which involves flashing your board with the xwr14xx_water_ground_lab_mss.bin file that is generated upon compilation.

    The Gui will work fine without CCS in deployment mode.
