Hi,

im using latest industrial toolbox with mmwave sdk 3.05 . i would like to import the awr1642 demo project to ccs but facing some problems.

See details below...

seems that the files in the sdk are not compatible!!

any ideas?

  • Hello,

    It appears that the COM_TI_MMWAVE_SDK_INSTALL_DIR linked resource path variable is invalid. Please check that it is set to a valid path.

    Thanks

  • Hello,

    the  path variable of COM_TI_MMWAVE_SDK_INSTALL_DIR is set correct to mmwave_sdk_03_05_00_04.

    the problem is thet some files in the sdk as wrong name (for ex: data_path.c instead of dss_data_path) and some are completely missing from the folder. it seems that the project is compatible to earlier sdk like 1.02 and not to latest sdk. could you check if you are able to import it using this SDK ??

    thanks,

    Roy

  • Yes I notice differences between SDK 3.05 and 1.02 where many of the mentioned files do not exist it the 3.05 version. It is very likely that the project is not compatible with the current version of the SDK. I will bring this thread to the attention of the device experts.

  • hey Ki,

    I am still waiting to load the demo project to my new AWR1642BOOST evm. what about the competability problem?

  • This thread has been brought to the attention of the device experts. I will re-ping them.

  • Hi Roy,

    The mmWave SDK itself does not provide CCS projectspec files for the OOB demo. If you are using the files provided in the mmWave industrial toolbox, those are indeed outdated for SDK 3.5.

    We recently created projectspec files for the interference lab available in the mmWave platform toolbox. The interference lab is identical (with some additional functionality) to the OOB demo in SDK 3.5. 

    The folder structure for the interference lab is a little different from the OOB demo. If you want, you could refer to those projectspecs and try to modify them.

    If the CCS environment isn't a necessity, you could use the makefiles provided with the SDK to build the demo.

    Regards,
