TUSS4470: Ultrasonic sensor for fault detection

BOOSTXL-TUSS4470: Tabulated results and measurements & diagnostics not shown

Part Number: BOOSTXL-TUSS4470

Hello, 

I hope you are well. 

We've set-up the BOOSTXL-TUSS4470 evaluation kit up to take volume measurements with an external power supply, and the data dump graph is looking ok. However, we are not able to get any plots on the measurements & diagnostics graph or the TOF calculated in the tabulated results table. 

I have attached for you below a screenshot of our GUI. Can you please advise us as to what we could be setting up wrong please? 

Thank you. 

Kind Regards, 

Louiza

    Hello Louiza,

    Thanks for the image, unfortunately I cannot tell what version of the GUI you are running. It can be found at the bottom right hand side of the GUI where it indicates if your hardware is connected. I just want to make sure you are running the latest version which should be 1.0.0.6, if you could please confirm the version you are currently using that would be very helpful. 

    Best,

    Isaac

    Hey Louiza,

    Thank you for confirming that, as far I can see it looks like your ECHO_INT_CMP_EN is enabled which should toggle results to be displayed on your tabulated results section. I did notice that you are receiving two return echoes, it is possible that is what might be causing the issue, have you tried altering your setup to only get one return echo? My suggestion for now would be to use the VOUT data in order to calculate for the time-of-flight as we help troubleshoot this issue.

    Best,

    Isaac

    Hey Louiza,

    I was testing the GUI to check the root of the problem, and it seems like there might be a bug if the record time is set at 12ms, try to increase the record time to 24ms and it should display the recorded time-of-flight. That should work let me know if that solved your problem Louiza.

    Best,
