IWR6843: [IWR 6843] URGENT HELP NEEDED ON vital parameters detection

Part Number: IWR6843
Kindly provide support for all our below queries it would be really helpful.
1) Unable to configure the gui to any COM ports, the auto detect failed for our own board.
We are using the below prebuilt image on the board (Latest toolbox) and using your gui in the below path.
C:\ti\mmwave_industrial_toolbox_4_5_1\labs\vital_signs\68xx_vital_signs\prebuilt_binaries\vital_signs_demo_68xx.bin
C:\ti\mmwave_industrial_toolbox_4_5_1\labs\vital_signs\68xx_vital_signs\gui\gui_exe (Not working)
C:\ti\mmwave_industrial_toolbox_4_5_1\labs\vital_signs\14xx_vital_signs\gui (Able to configure)
Could you release C:\ti\mmwave_industrial_toolbox_4_5_1\labs\vital_signs\68xx_vital_signs\gui\gui_exe (VitalSignsRadar_Demo.exe) with fix to configure any COM port?
2) We are able to get the breath rate and Heart rate with C:\ti\mmwave_industrial_toolbox_4_5_1\labs\vital_signs\14xx_vital_signs\gui.
Teh below is the structure we had traced and we are referring word 10 and 13 respectively for both heat rate and breath rate.
Let us confirm whether these fields are fine or correct us to get the correct Heart Rate and Breath rate.
typedef struct VitalSignsDemo_OutputStats_t
{
    uint16_t rangeBinIndexMax;     // 1
    uint16_t rangeBinIndexPhase;   // 1
    float maxVal;                  //2
    uint32_t processingCyclesOut;  //3
    uint16_t rangeBinStartIndex;   //4
    uint16_t rangeBinEndIndex;     //4
    float unwrapPhasePeak_mm;           // 5
    float outputFilterBreathOut;        // 6
    float outputFilterHeartOut;         // 7
    float heartRateEst_FFT;             // 8
    float heartRateEst_FFT_4Hz;         // 9
    float heartRateEst_xCorr;           // 10
    float heartRateEst_peakCount_filtered;  // 11
    float breathingRateEst_FFT;          // 12
    float breathingRateEst_xCorr;        // 13
    float breathingRateEst_peakCount;    // 14
    float confidenceMetricBreathOut;        // 15
    float confidenceMetricBreathOut_xCorr;  // 16
    float confidenceMetricHeartOut;         // 17
    float confidenceMetricHeartOut_4Hz;     // 18
    float confidenceMetricHeartOut_xCorr;   // 19
    float sumEnergyBreathWfm;               // 20
    float sumEnergyHeartWfm;                // 21
    float motionDetectedFlag;               // 22
    float breathingRateEst_harmonicEnergy;  // 23
    float heartRateEst_harmonicEnergy;      // 24
    float reserved7;  //25
    float reserved8;  //26
    float reserved9;  //27
    float reserved10;  //28
    float reserved11;  //29
    float reserved12;  //30
    float reserved13;  //31
    float reserved14;  //32
} VitalSignsDemo_OutputStats;
3) We want to get more details like ECG like PQRST data. Will it be possible to detect these sub parameters of Heart beat?
4) We want to get more information about the person whether he/she is fatigue, sleeping, unconscious etc. We want to know all these information we should extract from only breath rate and heart rate or any other information from your capture will help to get more details about the patient.
5) Could you share with us some documents which can explain the details of each field in the structure.
  • Hi Sriraman

    Is there a reason you are trying to change the EVM COM port ID? One can actually change COM ports in the Vital Signs GUI freely but one would need to change the EVM COM port settings in the Windows Device Manager. Though you should note this can cause communication issues between your PC and board and isn't recommended.

    I can confirm that the data values you have listed are complete and correct for vital signs estimation though the additional estimates you are seeking, such as patient pain and condition, are in the realm of medical data which I cannot provide comment on from a software/hardware perspective. Please note that E2E forums are intended for technical and engineering support.

    Regards,
