Hi Yogesh,

I using industrial toolbox V4.0.1. When the error occurs, the GUI interface just stops there.

Software configuration:

<BIN>area_scanner_68xxAOP_lab.bin

<GUI>mmw_area_scanner.exe

<CFG>mmw_area_scanner_68xxAOP.cfg

CMD window log:

Starting UI for mmWave Area Scanner Demo ....

Hi James, 

It seems like the visualizer is not able to handle the number of data points. Could you try to reduce the sensitivity by changing

cfarCfg -1 0 2 8 4 3 0 8 0

to 

cfarCfg -1 0 2 8 4 3 0 12 0

Thanks

Yogesh
