DCA1000EVM: DCA1000EVM: how to read the programming paraters

Part Number: DCA1000EVM

I have to post process some data froma DCA1000EVM + AVR1642. I understood how the data are strored (ref: http://www.ti.com/lit/an/swra581b/swra581b.pdf ) but I need to be able to know the programming paraters (and calucaleted parameters) without using sdk_studio or post proc of sdk.

Where can I find this parameters?

  • Hi,

    When you send command from mmWave Studio, it stores all those commands in multiple files in different format.

    You can refer these files for your purpose-

    mmwavestudio\runtime\mmwavelink_logging.txt

    mmwavestudio\runtime\\trace.txt

    mmwavestudio\postproc\LogFile.txt

    Refer ICD document for command parameter definition and /or try using 'help' & command in mmWave Studio LUA console.

  • Hi,

    thank you.

    Actually I don't want to know the command sended by mmWave Studio.  I saw that the parameter that I chose is different than parameter of PostProc, i.e the starting frequency selected was 77 GHz, but in PostProc  was about 77.1 GHz. There are also other parameters that are different. I would like also to understand how PostProc evaluete the calucaleted parameters.

    Anyway my aim is to retrive these parameters (that appear in right side of the panel of PostProc) without using PostProc. I don't konw if it possible, but someware PostProc finds/evaluetes these parameters.

    Where can I found ICD document?

    Best,

  • Hi Lapo,

    mmWave Studio writes all required configuration parameter for PostProc to 'postproc\adc_data_log.log' file. PostProc reads this file and then process the ADC data. It will do the internal calculation based on this file data and same is published right pane of plot screen.
