Configuration 

 

This page allows to upload the binary configuration file 

*.gwcnfg

 or generate this file based on current GW settings. This 

type of file can be also generated by IQRF IDE GW Tool. 

TR upload 

 

This page allows to reprogram the TR module inside the GW. Supported files are 

*.hex

, 

*.iqrf

*.trcnfg

. 

*.trcnfg

 can be generated by export of TR configuration in IQRF IDE, but 

excluding Access password and User key

 

for encryption, which is allowed to be configured only locally, see chapter
