  • Hi,

    1. Was this working and then stopped?
    2. Please section "3.7.3.2 Firmware Maintenance Utility - xdsdfu" of linked document

  • Hi,
    Yesterday I used this board to go through the 'out-of-box mmWave experience ' in mmwave_sdk_user guide and run the demos. At that time, I could see the estimated scatters plots in the mmWaveDemoVisualizer. But after that success, mmWaveDemoVisualizer could not show the plot when I wanted to try it again (10 minutes later I think), even with the "hardware connected" shown on the screen and config sent. Then few minutes later, the device could not be detected by the computer. I tried rebooting my computer and board many times, but it doesn't work. I also tried to use another computer, but the device still can not be detected and PGood LED only glows at the first few seconds after the device is rebooted.
  • Hello,

    Please use only XDS110 USB cable.

    Thanks and regards,
