Hello,
I recently got the DCA1000 board. I want it for continuous streaming but there is an initial problem even with the capture demo in mmwave studio. In fact, I followed the steps in "DCA1000EVM Quick Start Guide". I ran the capture demo, but I got the following at the output:

I searched for the RESP TIMEOUT in the documents and on the net, but nothing I got. I wonder why there are no complete explanations of the possible errors for the DCA1000 in the manual. I could not even use the mmwave studio for static configuration or anything else.
Best regards,
Mostafa
