DeVolf Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Hello! I bought mu Wifire board couple of month ago and expect to use it with NI LV LINX wia Wi-Fi. Here is topic about firmware https://www.labviewmakerhub.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=926 . After long time rying to get Wi-Fi works i realise that even simple WiFi scan exaples didnt work. Start of SketchWiFiScan 3.0Digilent, Copyright 2014 Start WiFi ScanScan Failed Status value: 268443650End of Sketch Then i spend some time for digging 268443650 Error, but no luck. Only one topic about uc32 with faulty SPI. BTW i have checked SD card slot, and it works fine. So i need to check SPI4 and WiFi board to find out what happend. I tried to use 27 and 26 debug pin of WiFi, according to MRF24 manual, but there is nothing. WiFi board powered up but keep silent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commanderfranz Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Hi Devolf, I'm so sorry for the delay of response. I have moved your question to the LabVIEW section of the forums so our LabVIEW expert can take a look. Kaitlyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeVolf Posted January 24, 2016 Author Share Posted January 24, 2016 But 268443650 Error is given by WiFi Scan script , possibly by DEIPcK library and can be caused by a hardware. So it doesnt as for LabVIEW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sudharsan.sukumar Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Hello again DeVolf! I'm going to escalate this to see if someone can help you get the WiFi working. -Dharsan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwingerson Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I have found that there are a lot of issues with the wifi libraries depending the version of the library and MPIDE. It can be a little bit of a nightmare. I just checked the latest ChipKIT core, to see if it works or not. The WifiScan ran perfectly on for me on the Wi-Fire. I suggest installing the latest Arduino IDE and install the chipKIT core. Instructions can be found here: http://chipkit.net/wiki/index.php?title=ChipKIT_core Best of Luck, Marshall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also i think that problem can be issued by different board or chip version. Kindly regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwingerson Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I have found that too. Generally, for the WiFi libraries, I have stuck with WF32 and Wi-Fire for wifi projects because I feel like they are better supported in the libraries. Did you figure out your problem with the WifFi stuff? ~Marshall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeVolf Posted March 14, 2016 Author Share Posted March 14, 2016 Still nothing for me, in arduino IDE i got same error as in MPIDE. And i still don't check my wifi module on other SPI port. I only understand that i need inboard programer and try to write wi-fi program using harmony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwingerson Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 ok, let me see if I can find what the error or status means. What do you mean by "And I still don't check my wifi module on other SPI port"? As for, "I only understand that i need inboard programer and try to write wi-fi program using harmony" You are programming through the USB port which can talk to the PIC32 during boot up. So you do not need an external programmer unless you damage the bootloader on the PIC. You shouldn't need Harmony at all for this. Harmony is a different implementation and a different IDE.

mwingerson Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I am CCing you on an email to our people for an RMA. I suspect the issue is bad firmware on the wifi module and we don't have a reliable way to reprogram the board in the field. Sorry about the turn around time but we found the issue.

DeVolf Posted March 15, 2016 Author Share Posted March 15, 2016 I know that board can be programed through MPLAB X using only USB cable and bootloader that already installed. But if i chose wrong inker script, a i can break my bootloader. actually i didnt find wright one ld file in MPIDE folder for PIC32MZ2048ECG100... so i probably think that trouble in wifi module, a checked microchip forum and cant find any files and guides about flashing wi-fi module. And i also tried internal board debug, but it say's nothing. and also i wanna try to huck up wi-fi board to another SPI port, but for a now it's doesn't matter. I think my board isn't return eligible due resoldering of wi-fi module, cause i afraid that problam in soldering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
