LAUNCHXL-CC1352R1: Project Zero seems to not be advertising

Part Number: LAUNCHXL-CC1352R1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH

Hi,

To evaluate the software written for a custom board, I want to compare the BLE behavior with that same program its behavior when running on the CC1352R1 LaunchPad.
My custom board is nicely showing up in the SimpleLink starter app. However, the LaunchPad does not show up at all.

Any suggestions?

A fresh install of the CC13x2 SDK 3.20.0.68 and CCS 9.1 has unfortunately not helped.

Hi,

What are the differences between the custom board and the launchpad?

Hi Joakim,

Thank you for your response!

There are many, but I don't think that should change the working of the out-of-the-box CC1352R1 LaunchPad running a freshly imported Project Zero from a clean install of the SDK and CCS.
If I am not mistaken, that LaunchPad should be working without any further hassle?

What is your CC1352R2 chip revision on CC1352R1 LaunchPad? Is it rev.C or rev.E? CC13x2 SDK 3.20.0.68 can only run on chip after rev.E.

It is revision E. Furthermore, I have tried to compile with any combination of ARM Compilers 5.2.6, 18.12.2 LTS, 19.6.0STS and XDC Tools 3.50.1.12, 3.51.3.28, and 3.55.2.22

Do you download bim into your CC1352R1 when you test project_zero? If not, you have to do it when you want to run project_zero without debugger download.

If I am not mistaken, I am complying with all information provided in that thread.

Hi YiKai,

I have not downloaded BIM, and I believe the instructions also do not mention it? I have tried flashing the software with the Debug and Flash modes, but neither works.
I used UniFlash to first flash cc13x2r1lp_bim_onchip.hex (found in simplelink_cc13x2_26x2_sdk_3_20_00_68\examples\rtos\CC1352R1_LAUNCHXL\easylink\hexfiles\onChipOad), but then I get an error regarding the flashloader when i try to download project zero.

I also tried using the files in simplelink_cc13x2_26x2_sdk_3_20_00_68\source\ti\ble5stack\hexfiles\cc13x2r1\, so the project_zero_unsecure.hex and the .hex file in bim_onchip\Release, but I still see no advertising of the LaunchPad

You should use offChipOad BIM image instead of onChipOad BIM.

Thank you. I have flashed the offChipOad BIM first, and then the project zero .hex file. I have tried with 3 phones now, but none of them detects the LaunchPad. Any more ideas?

Edit: Flashed the project_zero_app project via Code Composer Studio after the above two files, now it works. Thank you guys.

Because of the holidays, TI E2E™ design support forum responses will be delayed from Dec. 25 through Jan. 2. Thank you for your patience.
