v2.2

Recording and analysis of TI mmWave radar data captured with the DCA1000EVM. Download DARTscope.exe below and run it - nothing has to be installed. The user manual is the Manual tab of the program (docs/MANUAL.md).

What is new in 2.2

  • Configure devices: a button in the Measure tab (single-chip and cascade) and tools/setup_dca1000 (tools\setup_dca1000.cmd on Windows, python -m tools.setup_dca1000 check|setup|revert) set up the PC for the DCA1000: the wired adapter to 192.168.33.30/24 without a gateway, the firewall for UDP 4096 and 4098, the adapter's power saving and the USB drivers. It needs administrator rights and asks for them. An adapter on another network is left alone, check only looks, and revert puts back every setting it changed (installed drivers stay). The button's frame turns red while this PC does not reach the DCA1000 from 192.168.33.30.
  • A hint after an adapter change: a DCA1000 that stays on keeps answering the adapter it first talked to; when it falls silent after a dongle was swapped, the tab says to switch it off and on.
  • JTAG: the debugger's result is taken as soon as it comes and its processes are ended - UniFlash 9.1 on Windows hung for minutes in its own shutdown.

Requirements

  • Recording with the IWR6843AOPEVM: mmWave Studio 2.1.1 installed (the radar's library and firmware come from it - it does not run).
  • Recording with the cascade: TI UniFlash or Code Composer Studio 20+ installed (its debugger loads the cascade's firmware over JTAG).
  • Video export (MP4) needs ffmpeg on the PATH.
