CC2650: Executing Transmitter Test Command (CMD_TX_TEST) on CC2650 using TIMAC 1.5.2

Hello,

can someone help me? I don't know how to implement it? 

Can I use the MB_SendCommand() or should I use the RF Driver from the tirtos_cc13xx_cc26xx_2_21_00_06?

Thank you for your help,

Hello,

Does anyone have any idea, how can I execute the commands CMD_RADIO_SETUP, CMD_FS and CMD_TX_TEST using TI RTOS 2.11?

I tried to use the MB_SendCommand() function provided by the TIMAC Stack and to import the RF Drivers from TI RTOS 2.16.01.14, but neither of them helps.

I'm stuck with this problem and unable to work :(

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi TI Support Community,

To implement the transmitter test described above in my first post, I tried to use the APIs for CC26xx doorbell (defined in mb_patch.c), the APIs for CC26xx RF Core Hardware Abstraction Layer (rfHal.h) provided by TIMAC 1.5.

To implement the transmitter test I call the following functions:

void MSA_ExecuteTransmitterTest(void)

{ 

// CMD_RADIO_SETUP: Radio Setup Command

  MB_SendCommand((uint32)&RF_cmdRS);

// CMD_FS: Frequency Synthesizer Controls Command

  MB_SendCommand((uint32)&RF_cmdFs);

// CMD_TX_TEST: Radio Transmiter Test Command

  MB_SendCommand((uint32)&RF_cmdTxTest)   

}

I define the RF commands as follows:

// CMD_RADIO_SETUP: Radio Setup Command

rfOpCmd_RadioSetup_t RF_cmdRS =

{

   .rfOpCmd = CMD_RADIO_SETUP,    // radio command common structure

   .mode =  1,                            // W:  radio mode (BLE, 15.4, etc.)

   .reserved = 0,                       // unused

   .config = 8,                           // W:  bias, trim, FS power up, etc.

   .txPower = 0x9330,             // W:  IB, GC, tempCoeff

   .pRegOverride = NULL,       // W:  ptr to list of HW regs to override

};

// CMD_FS: Frequency Synthesizer Controls Command

rfOpCmd_freqSynthCtrl_t RF_cmdFs =

{

    .rfOpCmd = CMD_FS,            // radio command common structure

    .freq = 2405,                           // W:  frequency in MHz to tune radio to

    .fractFreq = 0,                        // W:  fractional freq (mod 64K) in MHz

    .synthCfg = 1,                        // W:  specify Tx/Rx and ref freq

    .calCfg = 0,                            // W:  calibration override

    .midPrecal = 0,                      // W:  mid calibration value

    .tdcPrecal = 0,                       // W:  TDC calibration value

};

// CMD_TX_TEST: Radio Transmiter Test Command

rfOpCmd_TxTest_t RF_cmdTxTest =

{

    .rfOpCmd = CMD_TX_TEST,       // radio command common structure

    .config = 8,                                   // W:  signal type = 0, whitening = 1, FS control = 1

    .reserved1 = 0,                            // unused

    .txWord = 0xAAAA,                     // W:  payload to use

    .endTrig = 1,                                // W:  end trig for Tx

    .syncWord = 0x71764129,          // W:  synchronization word

    .endTime = 0,                             // W:  time to end operation

};

Unfortunately, my implementation doesn’t work.

Is there some example or documentation of such implementation or using of the MB_SendCommand? Can someone tell me what is wrong on my implementation? How can I implement the tranmitter test mode?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Rachenka
