Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH, AWR1642, DCA1000EVM
1. After the previous debugging, we can use the software visualization interface (mmWave_Demo_Visualizer 3.1.0) of TI company to collect and process basic data.
2. Will use uniflash_sl.4.6.0.2176 software;
3. Developing multi-channel configuration files based on AWR1642, Configuration files (I wonder if they are available):
flushCfg
dfeDataOutputMode 1
channelCfg 15 3 0
adcCfg 2 1
adcbufCfg 0 0 1 1
profileCfg 0 77 20 5 80 0 0 20 1 256 6000 2 2 24
chirpCfg 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1
chirpCfg 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 2
frameCfg 0 1 16 5 1000 1 0

Problems:
(1) How to collect multi-channel data?
Because of the requirement of the project, signal processing is needed on multi-channel data, but it is found that the data of each channel in the visual interface has been automatically synthesized (i.e. controlling antenna mode to achieve beam width, 15, 30, 60 degrees). So how to develop multi-channel data if you want to obtain multi-channel data?
Looked up some information on the official website, did not involve the development of multi-channel, only mentioned in the following documents:
Document: 5545. mmwave_sdk_user_guide. Pdf
(2) How to turn on AWR1642 and STM32F4 to make AWR1642 offline (out of pc)? Do you need to use other debugging tools?
(3) How to operate the radar without using the transmission configuration parameters of the visual interface to make it work, and want him to connect to the MCU power supply, through the external hardware switch to control its work or not?
