CCS/AWR1443BOOST: AWR1443BOOST to run a demo of TIDEP-0091 but it cannot get some data to watch use ccs

Part Number: AWR1443BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR1443BOOST, IWR1443, AWR1443, TIDEP-0091,

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

when i to run the demo  and i load the demo to use debugger to debug it i hope i can get some  data by reference a sheet of level_sensing_gsg.pdf ,but it  failure, i can not get anything by the watch window 

and the 'err' of value is  -4 and i debug one step by one step ,and get the reason,it because     err = DEMO_MEAS_ERR_CAL;     //not all calibration tasks passed      so i do not know how todo it ,iI would be grateful if someone could help me.

  • Hello

    Before getting into the debug stages of the demo we would like to understand the intent of your runs.

    1. Are you trying to get distance/fluid level measurements from IWR1443BOOST board

    or

    2. Are you trying to replicate the low power  consumption TI Design  http://www.ti.com/tool/TIDEP-0091   which show distance measurement with very low power consumption.

    For #1 is quite simple and can be done using the IWR1443 board alone. Please see TIrex example lab here

    For #2 you will need a IWR1443 board + MSP430 EVM  with board modifications and then follow the steps in TI design to load and run the demo:

      Under : http://dev.ti.com/tirex/explore  browse for below path 

     

    So far it seems like you are trying #2 with only IWR1443 so that would need to change to use two boards as listed above.

    If you are trying #2 already with two boards please let us know and we will resume from debug in this step on wards.

    Hopefully above information gets you run the demo's with real intent.

    Thank you,

    Vaibhav

  • i just want to use a board IWR1443 OR awr1443 to run the demo want to get distance/fluid level measurements from IWR1443BOOST board,not use MSP430 EVM,I have not made any modifications when i use the AWR1443 so it failed to get distance by ccs,and i have another problem,that is what different to use IWR1443 and awr1443,I used awr1443 to run the demo but it failed .hope you can reply me,thinks!
  • importantly i download the TIDEP-0091 level senor demo,to the AWR1443boost,so it failed
  • Hi User,

    There are several hardware modifications required for TIDEP-0091, they are illustrated in the Getting Started Guide.

    I would highly performing all of the listed modifications before running the demo again as well.

    Let me know if you have more questions.

    Cheers,

    Akash

  • oh ,i just  modification  The first set of instructions are Mandatory,and not modification The second set are highly Recommended ,and then i  comment 

    #define PMIC_TYPE_J  //if PMIC on board has not been modded then comment this out.in demo_commn.h file  and debug the demo ,it can not get nothing
