CF2 changing to 250Kbps data rate on it's own?

Post by gherlein »

My CF2 changed it's data rate to 250Kbps when I did not tell it to. I reflashed the firmware and it went back to 2Mbps. Then a bit later it popped back to 250Kbps.

I was working fairly near a wifi AP - does the firmware on the CF2 change itself based on detected conditions? I'm going to go read the code, but it would help if someone already knows the answer.

Hi,

The speed and channel is saved in the EEPROM and read during startup. If you would like to manually set this in the firmware you will have to disable the reading/setting of this. The easiest would probably be to change the configuration from the python client. When you start up with a EEPROM checksum that is invalid the firmware will reflash the EEPROM with the default values (which is 250k).
