Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR1443, AWR1843
Hey Guys,
I am trying to take measurements using the AWR1843 and DCA1000. I was previously using IWR1443. With the AWR1843, I have downloaded mmWaveStudio 2.0.0.2. I can reset the board, connect for RS232, and download the BSS Firmware to the device. (I already flashed it). However, after trying to install the MSS firmware, the dialog box shows that 100% of the download is complete. But I cannot press the connect SPI and the the output is stuck on "Downloading MSS RPRC Binary. I don't know if this has to do with the firmware version. But I am using the same firmware located in the mmWaveStudio 2.0.0.2 folder.
The output is as shown below. I do not know what to do and am really stuck here.

After this, nothing happens at all. I would be grateful if somebody could help me out.
