Part Number: DCA1000EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR1243

Hi,

I am working with DCA 1000 and EVM1243 On Windows 10.

I we have installed 32-bit Matlab Runtime Engine 8.5.1, FDTI drivers ,mmwave Studio 02.01.00.00, HCDC Pro. I am getting the following error after installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable package .

I have tried reinstalling mmWave studio but still failed. 

Kindly correct me if I am doing something wrong to get this error.

Thank You

    Did this problem start only AFTER installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable package?

    Did mmwave studio work before?

    thank you

    Hi Cesar,
    Thank you for your reply.I have solved that issue .I think it was because of connectivity issues.
    Further ,I am facing an error in the same setup while working. I have attached the complete script below showing error  [17:21:07]  BSS Power Up async event was not received! .
    Can you help me out with this?

    Jyoti,

    From your logs, it looks like you have an ES 2.0 AWR1243 device. Because you are using an older device, you will need to use an earlier version of mmWave Studio, version 1.0.

    You can download this version of the software here: http://software-dl.ti.com/ra-processors/esd/MMWAVE-STUDIO/01_00_00_00/index_FDS.html

    Regards,

    Kyle
