Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR6843AOPEVM, IWR6843AOP

Hi,

Please help with the questions below：

Testing environment:

IWR6843AOPEVM ES2.0
mmWave Demo Visualizer V3.4.0

Question:
1, Scatter Plot of Plot tab is 3D. Is there a way to set it to 2D?
2. Is there a way to convert the ".dat" file obtained by recording the results into a format that can be directly observed?
(I checked a similar question on this forum before. but it didn't support for IWR6843AOPEVM, so I asked again.)

BR,

Hello Fumikatsu,

1. The IWR6843AOP is best suited for 3D applications because of it's equal resolution and field of view in both azimuth and elevation. Hence all the target configurations available for 6843AOP in the visualizer are 3D configurations which is why the 3D scatter plot option is used. The visualizer does not provide a 2D scatter plot for AOP.

2. Please look at the following threads on this topic:

Hello Nitin,

Thank you for answer my question.

I will refer to other threads.
If you have problems, ask the question again.

I have a question about how to use Demo software。

The settings are shown in image 1.

Plot is shown in image 2.
There is a problem with the "Range Azimuth Heat Map" display.
Even if the vertical axis is set to 10 m or more, only 10 m is displayed.
Is it a setting issue for me?

BR,

Fumikatsu

Hello Fumikatsu,

Please allow me some time to look into this. I will get back to you by Thursday next week (due to the long weekend in the US).

Hello,

Thanks for your patience. It appears that the heatmap display is not automatically adjusted according to the selected configuration. But you can change it using the following steps:

1. After sending the configuration as usual, got to the plots tab and press the Sensor Stop button. This will enable you to edit the depth and height of the heat map as shown below.

2. Enter the new values and press the Sensor Start button. The new size will take effect as shown.

Thanks
