IWR6843: DCA1000EVM

Part Number: IWR6843

Dear Support  Team , 

Would it be feasible  to run a Lua shell ( in Windows) independent of  mmWaveStudio  and access IWR6843's - XDS comm port ? 

I'm interested in the Raw Data Capture , ON DEMAND , through 6843EVM+DCA1000 's  1Gb interface. 

Current  workflow under the hood of mmWavestudio  sets up the following : 

step1 : setup

step2 : Establish 6843 => COMM links / ID the sensor etc . (Can be through Lua interface / shell too) 

Step3 : Download the binary (rf, mss)  (through Lua shell too) 

Step4 :  through lua scripts : cls/arl/rstd  supported commands are executed to configure the RF / chirp/ frame / ,

             setting up the DCA board parameters and enabling the ehternet itnerface for raw data capture. 

Once started , the RAW data collection runs for ever and is a storage issue. 

Can one  perform steps 1 through 3 under mmWave studio and quit the tool. 

Start a Lua shell and execute "step4"  -  start RAW data capture as needed and stop ....This could also help us to control the capture remotely. 

Specifics to address are : 

* Access to XDS port in an Independent LUA shell 

* Starting /stopping the DCA1000 Ethernet interface and data transfer ... 

Appreciate your feedback 

thanks
