AWR1642BOOST: Magic word

Kedarnath Salimath

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST

1)Can anyone tell me what was the format of magic word in in version 1.0 . I know that Magic Number : [2 1 4 3 6 5 8 7] but what was the exact value in hex.

2)Also,how do i compare the four bytes of magic no in vers 1.2 ,as i can clearly see the no's in the list of version 1.0. Magic word in verss 1.2 is 0x102,0x304,0x506,0x708.....

Hi,

Please check the magic number value in the source code \packages\ti\demo\xwr16xx\mmw\dss\dss_main.c

Below code snipped is taken from SDK 1.0

/* Clear message to MSS */
memset((void *)&message, 0, sizeof(MmwDemo_message));
message.type = MMWDEMO_DSS2MSS_DETOBJ_READY;
/* Header: */
message.body.detObj.header.platform = 0xA1642;
message.body.detObj.header.magicWord[0] = 0x0102;
message.body.detObj.header.magicWord[1] = 0x0304;
message.body.detObj.header.magicWord[2] = 0x0506;
message.body.detObj.header.magicWord[3] = 0x0708;
