DCA1000EVM: Timeout Error! System disconnected

Thomas Solignac

Part Number: DCA1000EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR6843

I'm trying to use DCA1000EVM with MMWAVEICBOOST on mmWave Studio 2.1.0.0. I have installed all the relevant software in mmWave Studio user guide, and DCA1000EVM user guide. My computer is connected to both of the devices, with static IP configured as given, and firewall disabled.

When I’m triggering a frame (following instruction like in the https://training.ti.com/dca1000-training-video

I get a Timeout Error! System disconnected (see log1 below)

when I'm trying to use DataCaptureDemo_xWR.lua, modified the script by adding a delay

RSTD.Sleep(2000) after ar1.CaptureCardConfig_StartRecord(adc_data_path, 1) (as recommended in another thread )

I receive "no of files captured is zero error". (cf log 2 below)

Please try to upgrade the DCA1000 FPGA firmware to 2.8 version. I have seen more stable connection after upgrade to 2.8. It is described in section 3.2 (Updating the DCA1000 FPGA Binary) at radar studio users guide.

Best,

Zigang

Hi Zigang

I upgraded the FPGA firmware to 2.8 but got the same issue :( (see log below)

I m able to ping the 192.168.33.30 but when i ping the 192.168.33.180 I did not get any answer, I m wondering if it's the normal behavior ?

HI,

it is normal that you can not ping the 192.168.33.180.

In the case that you do not have an error, but the raw data captured file is empty. The Packet Delay in the DCA1000 configuration should be increased to 100-300us.

Best,

Zigang

0 zigang Yang over 4 years ago in reply to zigang Yang

TI__Mastermind 36065 points

The packet delay can be modified in DCA1000 setup, as shown below.

Hi,

I increased the delay to 300us but still have the same issue (the error appear 1 minutes after that I triggered the Frame )

HI, Thomas:

I am running out of ideas and I can not duplicate your problem on my PC. I am consulting with other design engineers.

Best,

Zigang

Hello Thomas,

I've seen similar issues when the user's PC is behind a corporate firewall - often the firewall prevents data transfer over ethernet if wifi is also enabled. Could you try disabling your wifi adapter/firewall and then retrying the demo Lua script to see if the issue is resolved?

Hi Amanda,

Thanks a lot for your help, the wifi is disabled but you are right we have a corporate firewall maybe the issue is related to it , I will contact some windows expert in house and let you know if I find something new

Thanks again

Hello Amanda,

I'm Frederic Garcia, a colleague of Thomas Solignac. We're both getting crazy trying to get raw data from the board. We've followed all the steps mentioned in the TI documentation, as well as your advice on the settings, BUT the timeout error persists:

We've tried to configure different computers (Windows 10 and Windows 7) with and without firewall, with firewall exceptions (trusted zone) on IPs 192.168.33.30 and 192.168.33.180, but with the same unsuccessful result.

So, we're really wondering if it might not be an issue on the hardware side or a miss-configuration of the pin-outs?

Please, don't hesitate to reply us in case you have any other suggestion/idea.

Frederic,

Thanks for posting your setup - yes you are correct. The issue appears to be the switch settings at SW2.

I duplicated what you have and was able to replicate your same error.

Please try setting SW2 as shown in the User's Guide - you need to enable SW config of the board (so capture settings can be configured by Studio)

Also not sure if related but typically the SD_DETECT LED is not enabled. Currently, capture to SD card is not supported so the memory card is usually not populated.

Prodigy 60 points

Hello Amanda,

After configuring the SW2 as in the picture you post it worked!

Thank you!
