CCS/IWR1443BOOST: Unable to send CLI commands after power cycle

Part Number: IWR1443BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH, IWR1443

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello,

I am trying to run "High Accuracy Demo". After flashing the demo using CCS I connect to the CFG port and DATA port. I am able to sense CLI commands and everything works fine. But when I power cycle the device I am still able to connect to the COM port but am unable to get any response by sending CLI commands. My application requires turning ON/OFF of the device so this is critical for our working.

Regards,

  • Hello,
    I think the reason is because Im using the CCS debug way of flashing rather than Uniflash way of flashing the image. I am able to load "High Accuracy Demo" and make it work with Visualizer after flashing using CCS. The same project I am unable to flash using Uniflash. Shows error: "xwr14xx_high_accuracy_mss.bin file indicates it is not a valid file to flash to IWR1443: 0x355a03d1" (I am using Industrial Toolbox 3.4.0)

    Hello,

    Can you check which ES version of 1443 you have? You can check this by looking at the markings on the device package. If the bottom left reads 964FB you have ES3.0. If it reads 964D you have ES2.0. The high accuracy lab in Industrial Toolbox 3.4.0 only supports ES2.0 and has not yet been migrated to support ES3.0 devices and if so may be the cause of the error.

  • Hello,

    I have ES3.0. The high accuracy demo works well when I'm trying to flash using CCS in debug mode but unable to load using uniflash.

    Hello Prudhvi,

    For the case of ES3.0, the lab needs to be migrated to SDK2.1 which supports ES3.0 devices. Please see this thread and follow the same steps for the high accuracy lab to create a .bin compatible with your ES3.0 1443.
