Hello,

How to control two radar (IWR1642 + IWR6843) with one laptop at the same time? I need to control the two devices to transmit chirps at the same time.

Thanks.

Hi,

The both have different COM ports, you should be able to open 2 instances of the visualizer and connect to the COM ports.

You mean the mmWave studio can control them to send chirps starting from the same time point (e.g., just push only one collecting button on the GUI)? Is there any doc for guidance on how to control two devices simutaneously?

Hi,

I meant mmwave visualizer, but you can also try with mmwave studio.
