MMWAVEICBOOST: Control mmWave demo via serials

Hi,

I'm trying to control mmwave demo via serial tools but the mmWave Demo Visualizer.

When sending commands line by line in the configure file, I found the serial was completely silent. My setup is:

1. Boost + DAC1000

2. The visualizer works fine

3. Two serial ports were opened successfully with proper settings

4. Send commands via the cfg port

Do I need to send some commands before sending those in the config file in order to start a session? Or would you please explain more about how to communicate the demo program via serial port access?

Thanks

Hi Yogesh,

No, I did not see anything there. Have you guys tried to use a serial tool to send commands to the mmWave demo?

Thanks.

Hi Yogesh,

The serial tool I used does not attach the new line char automatically, which caused the problem.

Thanks.
