Dear E2E

I have followed all the recommendations in the Readme
Now parameters of system is below:
Windows 7 Pro SP1
Python 3.7.0
Code Composer Studio Version: 10.2.0.00009
I used SDK's : First use - simplelink_cc13x2_26x2_sdk_4_40_04_04
then simplelink_cc13x2_26x2_sdk_4_40_00_44
About a log string "...UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0x88 in position 1: invalid start byte ..."
All resourses in project - UTF-8 encoding
Please help me
Hello,
I have assigned an expert to help you with your query.

Hi,
The README you are accessing has good setup instructions, but for the procedure itself I would instead follow the SimpleLink Academy at:
That said, I ran into the same issue as you when my system had an environment variable for the NO_PROXY parameter - can you check if you have something similar? From the command prompt, issue the "set" command and see if you have this variable set.

Also, are you able to identify the two/three boards properly and select the passive and master boards? Details are shown in the SimpleLink Academy module above.
With that I was able to properly setup both a connectionless and a regular AoA session. Unfortunately I don't have the antenna boosterpack to thoroughly test this.
Hope this helps,
Rafael
Hi,Rafael. Thanks for the answer.
No.There is no such variable in the system.
If added the variable NO_PROXY = "*. Ti.com, .ti.com, 127.0.0.1, 0.0.0.0, localhost" - a warning appears when rtls_ui starts:
“The system has encountered an environment variable 'NO_PROXY' that may cause a problem with the WebSockets connection. To avoid the problem, remove 'NO_PROXY' from the environment variable. " style = ""> The system has encountered the 'NO_PROXY' environment variable that may cause problems connecting to WebSockets. To avoid this problem, remove NO_PROXY from the environment variable. "
In both cases, the attempt to start the external interface ends with the message "INTERNAL SERVER ERROR":
I am using the system without Passive unit
Hi,
Thanks for doing the tests. One detail, though: the first image is all that is of the .log file? It seems quite small. If not, could you send the additional log, as well as the configuration.json? Perhaps we can spot something out of the ordinary there.
Since the traceback reports an Unicode decoding error, another theory: can you check if the path of your username or maybe even the install path (if different than c:\ti) has special characters? I know this may be a very long shot, but traditionally some of the tools have trouble with these characters.
I am asking ideas from colleagues to see if additional insights can be made to help you.
Hope this helps,
Rafael
"C: \ ti \ simplelink_cc13x2_26x2_sdk_4_40_00_44 \ tools \ ble5stack \ rtls_agent \ rtls_ui" is the strongly literal path to RtlsAgent
"... is that all there is in the .log file? It seems quite small .." - that's just the point!
As I intuitively understand:
- Win7 SP1 system.
- Python 3.7.5 version is recorded in RTLS UI Manifest Table - installation ignored the absence of Win7 service pack, and Python 3.7.9 version required KB2533623 update - "Detected Windows 7 SP1 without KB2533623
KB2533623 update is required to continue. "- But the update is no longer available.
Means: DOTNet is not installed. This means the WebSocket package is not available. Because of this, error 500 occurs during initialization.
Now I'm trying to run on virtual Win10
Hi,
I was able to reproduce this issue in my personal laptop with Windows 8.1 (Brazilian Portuguese), therefore this is probably an error caused by the localization of the Operating System.
I will report this to the development team and check for some possible workarounds or a scheduled fix.
At this moment there is no known workaround other than change the localization of the OS.
I apologize for the inconvenience,
Rafael
Hi,
The dev team provided an updated rtls_ui.exe that worked on my system here. Please download it from this post and see if it works on your system.
Hope this helps,
Rafael
