IWR6843: Config Commands Format mismatch

Part Number: IWR6843

Hi Team,

We're working on IWR6843 mmWave sensor with Wi-Fi-enabled MCU. we're sending config commands over UART RS232 Tx with the below format.

const char *test_str[] = {"sensorStop\r",

"flushCfg\r",
"dfeDataOutputMode 1\r",
"channelCfg 15 5 0\r",
"adcCfg 2 1\r",
"adcbufCfg 0 1 1 1\r",
"profileCfg 0 60.6 30 10 62 0 0 53 1 128 2500 0 0 30\r",
"chirpCfg 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1\r",
"chirpCfg 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4\r",
"frameCfg 0 1 128 0 50 1 0\r",
"lowPower 0 1\r",
"guiMonitor 1 1 0 0\r",
"cfarCfg 6 4 4 4 4 16 16 4 4 55 67 0\r",
"doaCfg 600 1875 30 1 1 0\r",
"SceneryParam -6 6 0.5 6\r",
"GatingParam 3 2 2 0\r",
"StateParam 10 5 100 100 5\r",
"AllocationParam 250 250 0.25 30 1 2\r",
"trackingCfg 1 2 250 20 52 82 50 90\r",
"sensorStart\r"

};

There are multiple things we are doubting here.
a) The way the format of commands that can be sent over UART RS232 Tx is correct or not?
b) Is the sensor really changed to functional mode? if it is not in functional mode then we need to doubt the bootup sequence whether it happened correctly.
c) acknowledgment comes the sensor on UART RS232RX pin is not received "Done".
Can you give me some guidance on how to send the config commands and how the IWR6843 accepts the commands?

Srikanth
