4.2.3.1. CFG – Configuration
Many functions and IOs of the RTLS module are configurable. The module is typically
configured by the server with over-the-air messages. Some configurations can also be set
locally via the UART. If the CFG command is sent without the value field, it is treated as a read
command and the module will output the current configuration value for the corresponding unit.
The following is the list of the configuration messages supported by the module:
CFG config_word – set/get configuration register value
CFG OUT – configure module output messages
CFG IMU – to configure IMU module
CFG UART – to configure UART mode
CFG OTA – to request OTA control by host
CFG CBD – to set/get CBID value
4.2.3.2. CFG config_word
The configuration word is set using the following command:
