Part Number: DCA1000EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR1443

I use IWR1443 and DCA EVM1000 ,mmWavestudio 2.0.1.000.

I manualy set up as follow(I don’t use “Scripts”).

I pushed "DCA1000ARM" buttuon, "Triger Frame"button (Sensor Config) but, adc data is not stored.

On other hand adc data is stored, if I use mmwavestudio1.0.0.0..

I have two question.

Do you know why adc data is not stored?

“Timeout Error! System disconnected” was displayed in the script message

“xwr12xx_xwr14xx_radarss.bin” and “xwr12xx_xwr14xx_masterss.bin” is correct firmware?

For the firmware to download, refer to the following QA.

http://e2e.ti.com/support/sensors/f/1023/t/858088?tisearch=e2e-sitesearch&keymatch=mmWave%2520studio%25202.1

The script message is as follows,

Hi User,

Have you seen the DCA1000 EVM training video?

Cheers,

Hi,

First, can you try to increase the Packet Delay in the DCA1000 configuration to 100-300us.

If it does not help, we have a similar situation in this thread:

https://e2e.ti.com/support/sensors/f/1023/p/877975/3254825#3254825

Can you see whether you also have the same problem?

Best,

Thank you reply.

I have seen the DCA1000 EVM training video.

Is the operation method the same even if the software version is different?

0 zigang Yang over 5 years ago in reply to user6022435

TI__Mastermind 37655 points

HI,

The operation method is about the same for different software version and different EVM board.

Did you try my suggestion yet?

Best,

Zigang
