PIO9 is sampled at about 1 Hz, so if using a CPU to generate the signal, make sure that PIO9 transitions (H
to L or L to H ) are at least 1 second long.
User file option
As of version 2.10 you can now specify a USER configuration as the factory reset settings. Prior to this
release only the hardcoded factory defaults would be restored. If there is a config file named "user", it is
read in as the factory defaults instead of using the factory hardcoded defaults. If no "user" config file is
present, the hardcoded factory defaults are used.
The "user" config file is created using the "save user" command which saves the current configuration
settings into the “user” file.
Even if there is a “user” config file arming and toggling PIO9 7 times will override the “user” settings and
restore the wifly module to the factory hardcoded defaults. This is a bypass mechanism in case a bad
configuration is saved into the “user” file.
Note: The module should be rebooted, or reset with reset line for the new settings to take effect.
