IWR1642: Need device source code and GUI code for demo

Dear Hector:

To access the Out of Box project files for the IWR1642 device use the following path:

<Industrial_Toolbox Install Path>\labs\out_of_box_demo\16xx_mmwave_sdk

Located at this location most importantly is the user guide to run the demo. I would suggest going fully through the user's guide. Specifically with the guide if you follow the instructions in the "Developer's Guide" that utilizes the CCS IDE you will be able to see the DSS/MSS source code.

Note: Can you elaborate as to why you are lacking a IWR6843 board, or why you have not access to one. We may be able to assist.

Let me know how it goes!

Best regards,

Connor Desmond

Hi Connor,

I'm testing SPI read/write and need to demo it to customers. The idea is to SPI_write from IWR6843 Slave, then read on IWR6843 Master, store data in a buffer and use UART_write to demo on TI GUI. But my colleague is using another 6843, so I only have 1 board, can't implement my idea.

In the user's guide page 10, step 2, neither the MSS nor DSS projects can be imported, instead I get a message "To look at the project source files, please import he project in CCS following the instructions provided in the user guide." I must be following the wrong user guide? I have tried the latest version of the industrial toolbox, V4.3.0, and V2.0.0. V2.0.0 allows me to load the project, but I get errors with paths not being valid.

Thanks, that did indeed load the both projects.

Now to get them running! Should I be getting errors when performing a build on those projects? Am I missing something?

Clint:

Do you have a ES1.0 or ES2.0 silicon device?

BR,

Connor,

I think I figured out my problem. It appears I built the mms project first. So I ended up having to delete both and re-import, then by compiling the dss first then the mss, I was able to get them both to compile. 

With respect to the ES1.0 vs ES2.0, I just purchased the evaluation board, so I'm assuming ES2.0, however I can't find a label verifying that. From my research, if it doesn't explicitly state 2.0, then it is 1.0...

I didn't see an option to specify 2.0 when ordering the evaluation board.

Thanks,

Clint Adams
