DWM1001-DEV Connection to Raspberry Pi

I am trying to connect the DWM1001-Dev onto a Raspberry Pi 3B+ using the overhead pins. I have connected them however I cannot access the UART pin functions on the raspberry pi. I have gone into /boot/config.txt and set enable_uart=1, and I have removed ttyAMA0 as the console in cmdline.txt Any suggestions as to how to get it working?

Hi Batresh,

Just do as below:
1, connect DWM-Dev to Raspberry Pi
2, ssh to the Raspberry Pi with user name : pi, pdw: raspberry.
3, cmd input : minicom -d /dev/ttyS0 -b 15200, then will show the minicom config information, just ignore.
4, double click enter , then you will see the uart work .

Thank you for your response! It was very helpful.

How would I connect it over SPI instead of UART? I’m trying to send out a pulsed signal through the DWM1001

Hi Batresh,

please refer the DWM1001_Firmware_User_Guide_ver11.pdf (1.5 MB) , there are some guide about how to config SPI to your host via SPI.

Hi,

I have downloaded the dmw1001_host_api package and the bcm2835 library onto the raspberry pi and the dwm1001 is connected to the pi via SPI. I’m trying to run the ex1_TWR_2Host example. When I run ‘make’ beforehand it says ‘tag_cfg build is done’, however, nothing happens when I try to run ‘./tag_cfg’.
