SigFox Error

[michal.zykov]

Hi @saprize,

Have you upgraded firmware to the most recent one? Can we get an output from os.uname()?

os.uname()
(sysname='SiPy', nodename='SiPy', release='1.0.0.b1', version='4fb4f54 on 2016-12-15', machine='SiPy with ESP32')

I Cant get the Update to work. i only have a CP21xx Serial to USB converter und no exp Board. and the update always fails

Hi @saprize,

IMHO this is definitely firmware issue. You should upgrade to the most recent one.

Is there anybody out there who could confirm it?

Mike

[saprize]

when i run this code in the main

main.py -- put your code here!

from network import Sigfox
import binascii

initalise Sigfox for RCZ1 (You may need a different RCZ Region)

sigfox = Sigfox(mode=Sigfox.SIGFOX, rcz=Sigfox.RCZ1)

print Sigfox Device ID

print(binascii.hexlify(sigfox.id()))

print Sigfox PAC number

print(binascii.hexlify(sigfox.pac()))

i get this:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "main.py", line 9, in <module>
AttributeError: 'Sigfox' object has no attribute 'id'
MicroPython 4fb4f54 on 2016-12-15; SiPy with ESP32
Type "help()" for more information.

Hi @saprize,

As I mentioned, this seems to be firmware issue. Check this out:

• https://forum.pycom.io/topic/624/new-firmware-release-version-1-5-1-b1-supporting-the-sipy

So, you should upgrade firmware to the most recent one to get your SiPy to the fully functional state.

@saprize
You're running very old firmware when Sigfox wasn't even activated. Update your board first by following the "Firmware Update" links at https://www.pycom.io/resources/

This makes no sence. Ich can connect via Serialport. But when ich do the 23 to G thing an run the Updater it always fails. This cant be an Connection issue. pymkr works fine user my CP21xx serial device. ??

Hi @saprize,

Based on your information there are two issues.

Issue No .1
Sigfox library does not work properly because of your obsolete firmware.

Solution: Upgrade firmware to the most recent one.

Issue No. 2
You are not able to upgrade your firmware. OK - can we get any details? What is the error message? Can you take a print-screen?

There ist no Log or no futher info anywhere its just states  this.

Hi @saprize,

Thank yoU! How do you know that the firmware upgrade fails?

Mike

@saprize
Did you reset/power cycle the board after connecting GND-23?

Have you closed other apps accessing the port, e.g Pymakr?

@saprize Check this:

@rskoniec said in Firmware upgrade Serial port to use unavailable:

@Migueloribe Did you look here? https://forum.pycom.io/topic/763/firmware-upgrade-troubleshooting-checklist-procedure
Do you see any change in a Device Manager when you're connecting/unconnecting USB cable with Expansion Board?
What version of Windows are you using?
