LAUNCHXL-CC3235SF: CC3235SF-LAUNCHXL : Wifi Scan : How to scan 5Ghz networks available in air

Part Number: LAUNCHXL-CC3235SF
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH, CC3235SF

I am trying to use network terminal example. In that, we are using the scan for 5Ghz.
I tried scan command but that responds only with network at 2.4Ghz frequency.

What is the command to scan 5Ghz networks in air ?

Do we have to follow any different  procedure ?

is there any jumper settings or GPIO control which will switch the mode between 2.4Ghz & 5Ghz ?

is there any single command/procedure  to do the both scan 2.4Ghz & 5Ghz ?

    Sagar,

    Are what SDK are you using? Are you flashing the device in RadioTool?

    Under Advanced/System Settings/Device/Radio Settings there is an enable 5 GHz support option. Make sure that is enabled. It should be enabled by default.

    Hi Vincent,

    Thanks for the quick response.

    So, I downloaded the latest service pack. I used uniflash to update the service pack in CC3235SF-LAUNCHXL kit.         

    File from the Location given "C:\ti\simplelink_cc32xx_sdk_3_10_00_04\tools\cc32xx_tools\servicepack-cc3x35"

    Yes, checked the radio option. Enabled it. working now.

     

    Now, we are testing radio tool, There are some errors in it.

    Radio tool is unable to get the device details.

    Rx_Test failed. 
    Current Test failed.


    Logs of tool are attached & also snapshot with error on tool.

    Hi,

    You you have Radio tool image inside your device? For function of radio tools is mandatory to be uploaded "special" firmware inside CC32xx devices.

    Hi Jan,

    Thanks for quick response.

    I  did not know that.

    I am trying device images i.e. "C:\ti\CC3xxx_RadioTool_1.0.3.7\Device Images\CC3235SF Images\Programming.sli" .

    is this the correct one ?

    but there is still the issue.

    Also following this, http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/CC3100_%26_CC3200_Radio_Tool#Flashing_the_board

    but nothing is given regarding which image to be programmed.

    Hi,

    Yes it should be proper one. Please read www.ti.com/.../getliterature.tsp at chapter 6. Additional option may to be use Uniflash software (v 4.2 and higher). Make sure also that you have selected proper COM port.

    That might be the issue.
    Let me check that & will get back to you. This may take some time, at my end.
