XDS110 enhanced/standard ports not found

Hello Gorka, 

To control the radar device from mmWave Studio, both the starter kit and the MMWAVEICBOOST must be powered and connected to the PC using the micro USB cable. The UART used to download the firmware is accessed from the XDS110 device on the MMWAVEICBOOST. The SPI interface used to control the radar device, SOP controls, and nRST control is performed from the FTDI chip on the MMWAVEICBOOST. Hence, please buy the MMWAVEICEBOOST. 

For connection and other related details, please refer to the linked user guide: 60GHz mmWave Sensor EVMs (Rev. D)

Hello Ishita,

Please, read back the question again. I am using the IWR6843ISK rev.C, which is directly connected to the DCA1000EVM, and thus no MMWAVEBOOST is used in between. The cables are connected one to the XDS110 mini usb port on the iwr6843, and the other to the dca1000EVM board FTDI port. Still, the question holds: why I can not see or update the drivers even using any of the IWR6843 rev.C parts we bought.

Hello Gorka, 

I apologize for the confusion here. 

Referring to the attached figure above, Rev C and Rev D version of IWR6843 boards (ISK/ODS) have CP2105 USB to UART chips present, hence one need to use the following drivers instead of XDS110 :
