X-NUCLEO.IDW04A stuck in reset

HI 

We are planing to use a new WIFI module from ST for replacing the old module ( form another supplier )  

so I :

1. bought a NUCLEO-F401RE and a X-NUCLEO.IDW04A boards.

2. downloaded the en.x-cube-wifi1_firmware software. 

3. done the board setup according to page 6 in UM2183 (Getting started with the X-NUCLEO-IDW04A1)

4. compiled the firmware (Server_Socket) with IAR, and downloaded it to the board.

5. run.

and now the software get stuck in the wifi_reset() function wating for the stage to get started.

while(IO_status_flag.WiFi_WIND_State != WiFiHWStarted)

{ __NOP(); //nothing to do } 

so before I get started with the big investigation, I was thinking that maybe I wasn't the only one that have see this problem.

So I'm hoping that one of you guys can give me a hint, thanks in advance..

Hi,

By default, the build is set for SPWF04 and SPI interface. So if you are using UART as interface please set the required macros in the file wifi_conf.h in the Inc folder of the App you are running (e.g. server socket in your case).

Also check out the correct jumper settings for UART/SPI for the SPWF04 in the readme files.

IN case of UART it should be as below for the F401 board (not the comment out for SPWF01):

#ifdef USE_STM32F4XX_NUCLEO 

#define CONSOLE_UART_ENABLED

//#define SPWF01

#define SPWF04

regards,

Mridu

Thanks, I found a solution:

- to use SW Reset functionality (wifi_reset() function)

    - jumper on position JP3 (middle and top) is required (was not mounted)
