So what can I do?

  • Hi Reda,

    I have escalated this issue to the engineering team. As soon as I have an update, I will let you know.

    Thanks

  • Your log looks fine (the one error in there can be ignored).

    You mentioned an issue with "detecting" cloud agent. When exactly are you getting this issue? What are you doing when this issue occurs?

  • Hello Ki,

    Thank you for the fast response.

    I connected the card to the laptop, the Com ports are well detected in the device manager:

    When I open the mmWave Demo Visualizer from this link

    https://dev.ti.com/gallery/view/mmwave/mmWave_Demo_Visualizer/ver/2.1.0/

    I go to settings >> serial ports and I've got this even if I already installed the TI cloud agent application

    NB: I am a non administrator user.

    This might be the issue. You must be able to run the ticloudagent.exe with elevated (administrator) permissions. And it must be from your account - having a administrator log in with a separate administrator account to run the exe will not resolve the issue for your account.

    You'll need to have your IT administrator give your account temporary elevated permissions to run executables as a administrator. Once ticloudagent.exe is installed, the you should be ok even if the elevated permissions are taken away.

    If you cannot get this elevated permissions, then I'm afraid that you will not be able to use the TI Cloud debugger to connect to your board.
