Part Number: IWR1443BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR1443

I am using IWR1443 boost for ROS Cloud Visualizer. I already used the demo visualizer on web to test the radar, and it worked well. Then I downloaded and installed ti_mmwave_rospkg from the TI.com. However, when I roslaunch rviz_1443_2d.launch, the terminal shew "process has finished cleanly", and no data or cloud shew on the screen. I has tried to reflash the board with sdk version 01.02 successfuliy. I don't know why the problem occurs.

Hi,

Are you seeing any errors in the terminal after running the command?

One message that seems like error is "[ INFO] [1568797903.658918584]: waitForService: Service [/mmWaveCommSrv/mmWaveCLI] has not been advertised, waiting...", which occurs at the beginning. Before the "process has finished cleanly", it shows "[ INFO] [1568797903.957600656]: mmWaveQuickConfig: mmWaveQuickConfig will now terminate. Done configuring mmWave device using config file: /home/yangzt/catkin_ws/src/ti_mmwave_rospkg/cfg/1443_2d.cfg
". Besides from above information, I do not see any errors in the terminal. While the terminal is working, LED DS3 on the board is blinking. I guess whether it is caused by my Ubuntu or computer.

Hi,

if you look at the release notes, it states that the example is Compatible with TI mmWave SDK v2.1.0.4 out-of-box demo when using xWR1443 ES3.0 EVM or xWR1642 ES2.0 EVM

Please confirm that you are using right SDK version and have the right board version (ES3.0EVM).

Page 2 of the linked errara shows how to confirm the silicon version
