IWR6843ISK: Teraterm setting to monitor serial communication on DATA port

Part Number: IWR6843ISK
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR6843

Hello ,

After setting up IWR6843 with demo visualizer, I would like to monitor serial communication on DATA port by Teraterm v4.74.

But character on serial communication is not received correctly with Serial port setting = 921600 as shown in attached file.

Please kindly advise how to monitor by Teraterm.

Best regards,

Taka 

  • Dear Takatoshi:

    Teraterm will display the "strange" output that you are seeing because it is interpreting the incoming binary data as ASCII characters. To be able to view that stream of incoming data you will have to have a parser similar to what is implemented in the demo visualizer. Please review to the following:

    1. Source code for demo visualizer for parser example: dev.ti.com/gallery  then find the most recent version of the demo visualizer and import to GUI composer.

    2. Explanation of the what Header + TLV data is sent out of the device:

    <SDK Install Path>/packages/ti/demo/xwr68xx/mmw/docs/doxygen/html/index.html

    3. The source file where data is sent out of the device:

    <SDK Install Path>\packages\ti\demo\xwr68xx\mmw\mss

    Best regards,
