[SOLVED] Unable to change anchor TX power
Posted: Thu Oct 11, 2018 4:38 pm
Hi all,
I'm trying to run the script set_tx_power.py to play around with the transmission power of the anchors to see if I can get better localization with different settings.
The problem is that when I run the script it gets stuck at : "Connecting to radio://0/120/2M/E7E7E7EC05" (that's the address of the CF, verified through successful connection to the cfclient). Am I doing something wrong?
The whole command window looks like this:
sudo python3 set_tx_power.py 30
Sending anchor transmit power configuration to anchors (0 to 7) using radio://0/120/2M/E7E7E7EC05. Setting transmit power to 30dB. Anchors will resetwhen configured.
Connecting to radio://0/120/2M/E7E7E7EC05
I've tried running with and without sudo too, just in case. The result is the same in both cases.
Any guidance will be appreciated, thanks!
EDIT: I solved the issue by updating the firmware on the anchors to the latest on the master branch. My previous firmware was the release of January, so I think the script to change transmission power is not compatible with that firmware.
