AWR1642BOOST: Turn on and off mmWave radar with sensor

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR1642, MMWAVE-SDK,

Hello. I am working with the AWR1642, and I want to implement a code to turn off and turn on the radar depending on the input of a external sensor.

1) I need to know how to configure a GPIO pin to enable the entrance of the external sensor signal.

2) I want to know how to send the commands 'sensorStart' and 'sensorStop' depending on the input of the sensor.

I am thinking something like:

if(sensor_in){

CLI_write("sensorStart") }

else {

CLI_write("sensorStop") }

3)  Finally, I'd like to know if such implementation can be done with an interrupt (enable an interrupt to stop/start the sensor depending on the incoming signal in the GPIO pin).

Thank you in advance,

Richard.
