3.2 Flashing the Board

  1. Make sure the drivers have been successfully installed and COM ports enumerated. Refer to Section 2.8.
  2. Configure the SOP to Section 2.2.1.
  3. Press the Reset switch (Section 2.2.2) to make sure that the board boots up in the right mode.
  4. Run the mmWave Visualizer inside mmWave-L-SDK tool folder and use the flashing tab and follow the instruction or use Uniflash tool. Similar to that shown in Figure 4-1.
  5. Enter the application port number for the flashing interface.
  6. Select the image to flash to the EVM in the Image Flash menu, or directly upload the image from the mmWave SDK (C:\ti\MMWAVE_L_SDK\examples\mmw_demo\motion_and_presence_detection\prebuilt_binaries\xwrL64xx). Load appimage to serial flash. Similar to that shown in Figure 4-30. Please refer mmWave SDK for the flash binary for running out of box demos.
