REV 0.1 iCOM_WM05_AN Module EVB_QSG 8/14/2015 EVB Drive FTDI2232D Uniflash: http://www.ti.com/tool/uniflash Radio Tool: http://www.ti.com/tool/cc3xxxradiotest [EVB] Uniflash (to flash applications): 1. Please make sure programmer jumper is closed. Once Uniflash is installed (uniflash_cc3xxx_setup_3.2.0.00019.exe), invoke ‘CCS UniFlash’.
REV 0.1 iCOM_WM05_AN Module EVB_QSG 8/14/2015 2. ‘CCS UniFlash’ will open like below. 3. Go to ‘New Target Configurations’ and do the settings as shown below.
REV 0.1 iCOM_WM05_AN Module EVB_QSG 8/14/2015 4. Select the correct COM port. For correct COM port please see the next section, ‘Radio tool (to control the device)’. 5. Click on /sys/mcuimg.bin and browse for required binary file For example, flashing the launchpad with the ‘Radio Tool Application’, select the following binary available in the path shown below: C:\ti\CC3XXXRadioTool-0.5\CC32xxBoardApplication_Binary\RadioTool_V1p1_PG1p32.bin Check ‘Erase’ and ‘Update’.
REV 0.1 iCOM_WM05_AN Module EVB_QSG 8/14/2015 6. Go back to ‘CC31x Flash Setup and Control’ and click ‘Program’ After programming the device remove programmer jumper. This removal is VERY important before any testing to be done. Reset the board using the RESET push-button Radio tool (to control the device): 1. Once the device is powered up (after connecting uUSB cable to ‘power jumper’), one COM port should be enumerated in the device manger.
REV 0.1 iCOM_WM05_AN Module EVB_QSG 8/14/2015 The Radio Tool GUI will appear as shown below. 3. For CC3200 module launchpad, select CC3200 UART as ‘Device’. Select the COM port found in device manager. please select COM25 as shown below. Click ‘Connect’.
REV 0.1 iCOM_WM05_AN Module EVB_QSG 8/14/2015 4. Once the device is connected, the GUI would show ‘Chip ID’, ‘ROM Ver’, ‘FW Ver’ and ‘MAC Address’ 5. For RX measurements go to ‘RX’ tab of the Radio Tool GUI. Select the channel intended and set the duration (example 5secs). Click ‘Start RX Testing’ and after 5 secs, the statistics will appear in the GUI. 6.
REV 0.1 iCOM_WM05_AN Module EVB_QSG 8/14/2015 The steps are similar to other rates as well. For TX measurements go to ‘TX’ tab. Before starting TX operations following settings need to be done on the GUI. TX Mode: Select ‘Packetized’ Rates: Select the modulation rates want to transmit o 11b: 1, 2, 5.5 and 11 Mbps o 11g: 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48 and 54 Mbps o 11n: MCS0 to MCS7 Channel: Select the channel of transmission.
REV 0.1 iCOM_WM05_AN Module EVB_QSG 8/14/2015 Picture 20 If to change channel or modulation rate please first click ‘Stop TX testing’. If Change To new channel or modulation rate is OK, Please click ‘Start Tx Testing’ TX -> change settings -> start TX sequence to be followed.
