How do I determine which LRU installer I need?
In
the Regulatory Tools package you receive there are many files. The filename
structure is:
{radio-type}-{toolchain}-{version}.tar.bz2
For example, the file mfg60n-arm-eabihf-10.135.0.6.tar.bz2 would
be for our 60 Series radio running on a system with a GNU Embedded Application
Binary Interface (High Float) running version 10.135.0.6 of the Laird
firmware.
An easy way to determine your toolchain is to use the command:
ls -l /ld-linux*
Where can I find the Regulatory Test tools for Laird's Wi-Fi products?
For Regulatory Testing you will be required to
load a special firmware to put the radio into "Test Mode". The code
for our Wi-Fi modules is available-by-request by opening a case with our
Support Team at https://www.lairdconnect.com/resources/support.
