Wi-Fi Combo Forum Discussions

Hello,

     I have a board of BCM94343WWCD1 and want to test the button and LED example in snip.gpio app,  I try to create target and double click it : snip.gpio-BCM94343WWCD1 download run , the code can be found download to the target board but the LED not light when I push button.

     I open the gpio.c file and put mouse arrow on the character of 'WICED_LED1', it pop up a hint of : Symbol 'WICED_GPIO_15' could not be resolved, then I open the /platforms/BCM94343WWCD1/platform.h file and fine a line:  #define WICED_LED1   ( WICED_GPIO_11 ), which gpio definition is right following the schematics.

     So, I wonder why and where 'WICED_LED1' has been defined as 'WICED_GPIO_15', and why the right definition of 'WICED_GPIO_11' was not available even I try to

add #include "platform.h" in the gpio.c file, any obvious step I missed ?

what is the easiest way to compile the WICED SDK with it's minial configuration to support STA and AP mode as a library which can be linked against our own existing project  ?

In my hardware, I am using antenna "1" from the point of view of the wl tool, or WICED_ANTENNA_2 in the WWD enum parlance.
I need to run the test.bt_mfg_test app to do wireless certification. I am using a 4343W radio.
How can I set the antenna selection from the mbt tool to choose the correct antenna?

Also, I have seen some references to "BlueTool" software from Cypress that might be able start/stop the same tests that mbt does. Is that tool available for download anywhere?

I am having an issue with running bt_mfg_test on a 4343W radio.
I can build and flash the `bt_mfg_test` project, and invoke the control commands, but I cannot get the `set_tx_frequency_arm` mode to work.

For example, the `le_transmitter_test` does work, and I see "Received HCI event" at the command line, and I can see output on a spectrum analyzer.

Same for the simple commands, like `reset`.
But: when I run the `set_tx_frequency_arm` command, I the mbt.exe tool just returns without reporting even "Sending HCI command".

Note: I did have to make a patch to the BT mfg_test library to get the application to start correctly:

In bt_firmware_download, There is the code:

/* TODO : Eventually we will be using the patchram_download_baudrate variable from the platform file. */

/* update BT and host to switch to 3mbps */

if ( bt_host_update_baudrate( BAUDRATE_3MPBS ) == WICED_BT_SUCCESS )

{

    fast_download = WICED_TRUE;

}

I made this change because I was observing a breakpoint on failure to load BT firmware. Commenting that baud rate change out (and leaving it at 115200) solved that error.

Looking for a component to create a very simple WiFi based solution.

Problem Description: Monitor if a device is powered on by monitoring its IP address, communicated over the local WiFi network

Possible Solution Scenario:

• When a device power source is "present"/"on", a simple WiFi module will turn on and connect to a predefined WiFi SSID.
• The WiFi module will have an IP address (either pre-set or received via DHCP).
• One can ping WiFi module IP address to conclude if the device is on or off

The WiFi component shall be as simple as posible. No much programming, no commercial monthly fees for wireless < -- > cloud services

I just don't know enough about the product line to find the simplest device that fits the requirements

Thank you in advance
