"TDA Armin failed!" when just recording #2

Open chuber1986 opened 1 year ago

chuber1986 commented 1 year ago

When performing configuration and recording in one step everything works fine

$ ./mmwave --capture-dir testdir1 --configure --record

When I'm just recording (directly after the command above) I get the following error message:

$ ./mmwave --capture-dir testdir2 --record
STARTSTATUS   -8 | DEV MAP: 32 | [MMWCAS-DSP] TDA Arming failed!

Same thing happen when I do the configuration only and then try to record a frame:

Do you have any hint what the problem is there?

Hi @chuber1986 , Indeed, using the options --configure and --record separately does not work as expected. My initial guess would be that the MMWL_ArmingTDA function is failing either because of a closed connection with the board or "still in use". Not sure what's the cause yet.

I could investigate this a little further. Do you mind testing when I ready a branch for this?!

I've developed this with the hardware of the university but I've finished my studies already. I'm planning to acquire a board myself but, for now, I couldn't directly implement and test bug fixes or new features

chuber1986 commented 1 year ago

Hi @azinke,

sure, I can test that! :) Just let me know then the branch is ready.

chuber1986 commented 1 year ago

Hi @azinke !

Sorry, for the late answer. In this commit are 2 errors:

  1. In int MMWL_ConfigureDeviveMap(unsigned char deviceMap) {} you return retVal once which is not define. This should be status, I guess. For consistency I'd rename status to retVal.
  2. In int MMWL_ConfigureDeviveMap(unsigned char deviceMap) {} the timeOutCnt valiable was not defined.

After fixing these it again compiles, but unfortunately it doesn't fix the issue. I still get $ ./mmwave record --capture-dir testdir2 STATUS 0 | DEV MAP: 32 | [MMWCAS-DSP] TDA Connected! STATUS -8 | DEV MAP: 32 | [MMWCAS-DSP] TDA Arming failed!

Hi @chuber1986 !

Thank you very much for the feedback and sorry for the late response. It also took me some time to spot the issue with the "arming" without the board. But I also received helpful debugging logs to investigate this issue.

I've added a new commit to the Pull Request. Could you please test it and let me know of the outcome?! Thanks!

Hi @azinke!

Unfortunately, I still get the same error:

Hi @chuber1986 ! Have you maybe forgotten to fetch the new update before building the source? In the latest update, I've moved the "Frame Configuration" steps in the record command. And it seems to be appearing in configure in the logs. I mean, these lines

STATUS    0 | DEV MAP:  1 | [MASTER] Frame configuration completed!
STATUS    0 | DEV MAP: 14 | [SLAVE] Frame configuration completed!

With a custom configuration file, the commands would be as follows:

# Prepare the DSP board for recording
./mmwave configure -f config/short-range-cfg.toml

# Trigger recording
./mmwave record -f config/short-range-cfg.toml

But it's also possible to use the default config

# Prepare the DSP board for recording
./mmwave configure

# Trigger recording
./mmwave record

Morning @azinke ,

you are right. It seams that my git-pull failed without me recognizing it. Now I get:

I tried to do the PowerUp before recording (right after connecting to the TDA), but the same error occurs. Any ideas?

azinke commented 10 months ago

Could you provide a log with debugging enabled?! It would allow us to spot where exactly the issue is coming from

# define DEBUG 1
chuber1986 commented 10 months ago

The full debug output from the configuration: conf_log.txt

and from the recording: rec_log.txt
