CCS/AWR1642BOOST: Config file for SRR demo

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR1642

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

While i was running the SRR demo,i noticed that we are not loading any configuration file(unlike in demo visualizer) which makes me to think that the configuration file is already sent to awr1642 while opening the GUI.

If so,from where can i get/view the configuration file?

Regards,

  • Hi,

    You are correct, for the SRR demo the configuration informatiion is hard coded in the source code.

    The SRR demo has 3 modes of operation. All 3 modes are programmed with Advanced Framing.

    THe modes are as follows:

    1) SRR only

    2) USRR only

    3) SRR and USRR

    The modes are selected at build time by

    \mmwave_automotive_toolbox\labs\lab0002_short_range_radar\src\common\srr_config_consts.h

    For example by default, the SRR_USRR mode is selected:

    /**! @brief The multi-mode Radar mode of operation. */
    #define SUBFRAME_CONF_SRR_USRR                   /* Two subframes, SRR80 followed by USRR20. */
    /**! @brief The USRR only mode of operation. */
    // #define SUBFRAME_CONF_USRR                   /* One subframe USRR20. */
    /**! @brief The SRR only mode of operation. */
    // #define SUBFRAME_CONF_SRR                   /* One subframe SRR80. */

    The configurations are defined in

    mmwave_automotive_toolbox\labs\lab0002_short_range_radar\src\common\srr_config_chirp_design_SRR80.h

    mmwave_automotive_toolbox\labs\lab0002_short_range_radar\src\common\srr_config_chirp_design_USRR20.h

    Thank you

  • Hi.

    Thanks for your quick response.

    Just a query ,while viewing the UART which is used to send configurations(screenshot attached) advframe Cfg seems to be only sent whereas in CCS code both basicCfg and advframeCfg are populated.

    Is it enough to only transmit advframe Cfg to GUI ?

    Best regards,

  • Yes, this should be enough
