LPS node cannot be updated

Post by teihoshi »

hello!
I'm now facing a problem about the LPS anchor.That is, when connected to my computer(windows 10),with usb driver correctly installed and the LPS configuration tool running, it turns out that the node can only be configured and the update button is disabled,just like this picture showes,

So I only have the node configured and it showes it's successfully applied.However,when I run the pc cfclient,though the cfclient is connected to the cf,and the LPS anchor is on,the anchors are all red ,shown as below

According to the tutorial of LPS,I figure out it's someting wrong with the configuration.

But many times of configuration following the instruction of tutorial all end up in vain.And now I suspect whether it is something to do with the update step. Does anyone meet this problem before?I 'll thank you for your instructing!

Are you pushing the DFU button when connecting the node to the computer?

This could happen if you have not installed USB driver for the bootloader. Can you try to install the libusb driver using Zadig after pressing the DFU button and connecting the node to the computer?

Thanks for your advice, arnaud! But it doesn't work on that computer, either.The good news is when I try on another computer ,everything appears to be normal.So perhaps there is something wrong with my computer.Thank you very much for your time and patience!

use "sudo" before the instruction, I had the same problem and was solved this way
--> sudo python3 -m lpstools

Hope that works for you

Hi,

I had same problem, when LPS was in TWR mode. I solved the issue when I changed it to TDoA.
I hope it will help
