Wi-Fi Combo Forum Discussions

I am trying to hook up an SPI device but am confused about which SPI interface to use. I am using 3.1.2 SDK with the WCD4_EVB.

The only one defined in platform.h/c is SPI1, but this seems to be used by the flash driver. I found some forum discussions that seemed to suggest multiple SPI devices are not feasible as of now.

Can someone please help with the following questions?

1. If I use SPI1 (albeit with a different chip select pin than flash), will this work without any changes to the platform files?

2. Is there any other SPI interface I can use? I saw references to SPI3 in platform.h but nothing is defined in platform files

3. What exactly is the flash code used for? Does it even make sense for me to think of sacrificing flash support to get my SPI device working?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I am trying to bring up a WCD4_EVB on a Windows 8.1 machine. I have downloaded and installed the 3.1.2 WICED IDE but the drivers (apparently) did not get installed. When I plug the EVB into the USB slot, it shows up unrecognized in Device Manager.

I tried to manually install from the SDK drivers folder. But when I try to run "Dpinst" it asks me to "contact the vendor" for a 64-bit version of the installer.

Is there anything obvious I am missing? I am completely new to the WICED environment, so any help would be appreciated!

Thank you!

This wiced_time_get_iso8601_time() does not do a bitwise AND of a number that is frequently greater than 65000, when it converts to a uint16_t. Consequently the result is normally wrong.

Specifics: the local variable uint16_t sub_second is computed as follows. You should always have "000" on the end of the final result, because you take a millisecond value and convert it to microseconds by multiplying by 1000.

wiced_time_get_utc_time_ms( &utc_time_ms );

second     = utc_time_ms / 1000;               /* Time is in milliseconds. Convert to seconds */
sub_second = (uint16_t) (( utc_time_ms % 1000 ) * 1000 ); /* Sub-second is in microseconds               */

/************** Code corrected with int temp variable ***********************/
    temp = (int) (utc_time_ms & 0xFFFF);
    temp = (temp % 1000) * 1000;
    printf("******* temp: %d; sub_sec: %d\r\n", temp, sub_second);
  

/************ temp and sub_second should be identical, but they almost never are.

Hi,

     Currently we are using SDK 3.1.2 version, In this we tried to execute snip.email with the  EVB BCM9WCDPLUS114. But we are facing the following problem after connecting to the SMTP server the snip.email is failed to send EMAIL you can see that in below output:

  we did what ever required changes are needed like changing the sender and receipt emails to our personal mail ids and also tried by using the different standard port numbers (account.smtp_server_port  = 587;)   (like 465,25). Does any one know what is the problem? Please help us to make it work.

Thank you

Greetings,

I have installed the WICED SDK 2.40 on an XP 32bit machine. The program is installed properly. I have downloaded the MinGW GCC and set it as my current toolchain. The Gnu make builder is the current builder. I have a SN8200 wireless module. Everytime that I am trying to build the 'snip.https_client-BCM943362WCD4 download run' file from the Make Target tab i get the error

make *** No rule to make target 'snip.https_client-BCM943362WCD4 download run'. Stop.

Any help would be appreciated

Best Regards
