Dear team

I had tried to do mmwavelink application on IWR68xxAOP Demoboard with boost board.

Basically mmwavelink application "D:\ti\mmwave_sdk_03_05_00_04\packages\ti\control\mmwavelink\test\xwr68xx" works fine

when I tried to enable linkmonitoring function, the following error occurs.

in mss_main.c file, I just enabled by changing this: gLinkMonitoringTest = true

.............

----------Debug: Monitoring Configuration-----------
Error: rlRfDigMonEnableConfig retVal=250
Feature: Set mmWave Link digital monitor Enable: Failed
Feature: Start Monitoring: Failed
******************************************
Debug: hello mms MmwaveLink Test completed
******************************************

only thing I had done is to change gLinkMonitoringTest to true from false.

What to do change more to enalbe gLinkMonitoringTest ?

BR,

Hi Kisub,

Please allow me a couple of days to look into this to understand whether this is supported and if so, how to enable it. I will get back to you by Friday or next week.

Hi Kisub,

Could you check that you are not running the RF Advance Frame test i.e. using gLinkContModeTest = true in your test? The comments given below in mss_main.c indicate that gLinkMonitoringTest must be false when using this option.

/* RF Advance frame test
Note: If gLinkContModeTest is enabled then gLinkMonitoringTest and gLinkCalibTest
must be disabled
*/

bool gLinkContModeTest = false;

Thanks

As said, by default Advanced Frame is false. We did not touch any line except gLinkMonitoringTest = true

================================ mss_main.c ================================

/*RF Monitoring test, this doesn't include cq & cp test*/
bool gLinkMonitoringTest = true; // This is only change from original code.

/*RF calibration test*/
bool gLinkCalibTest = false;

/*RF Advance frame test*/
bool gLinkAdvanceFrameTest = false; // By default, it is false

bool cqDataVerifyTest = false;
/* RF Advance frame test
Note: If gLinkContModeTest is enabled then gLinkMonitoringTest and gLinkCalibTest
must be disabled
*/
bool gLinkContModeTest = false;

/* Dynaic Chirp configuration test */
bool gDynamicChirpTest = false;

/*Binary phase modulation test*/
bool gLinkBpmEnableTest = false;

/*RF program filter test*/
bool gLinkProgFiltTest = false;

/* Sub frame trigger test. Valid when gLinkAdvanceFrameTest flag is enabled */
bool gLinkSubFrameTrigTest = false;

==========================================================================================

Hi Kisub,

Thanks for the confirmation. I am still awaiting a response from our firmware team and hope to get back to you within this week.

Hi Kisub,

Thanks for your patience.

Error code 250 indicates that the device type is not ASIL-B as shown below. Monitoring features are available only on ASIL-B devices.

What is ASIL-B?

We had purchased AOP IWR68xx Demo board. It is ES2.0 or later.

Any problem with this board?

What is ASIL-B?

It looks like Automotive chipset.

IWR6843AOPEVM is not available for this?

Hi Kisub,

ASIL-B is the automotive safety and integrity level standard for safety capable devices. Please refer to the following page to get a general understanding on functional safety.

https://www.ti.com/technologies/functional-safety/overview.html

If your application requires safety capable devices, please get in touch with your local TI sales office to get more details.

Hi Kisub,

The IWR6843AOP device on the IWR6843AOPEVM is a non-safety enabled device as mentioned earlier. Please also refer to the following training for more information on functional safety wrt mmWave Sensors:
