8.0 Device Maintenance
8.1 Introduction
This section is not part of the default usage of the evaluation board. It is to be used as a reference in case you have been in contact with the
support team, and they invited you to run some of the following actions.
8.2 Firmware Upgrade
8.2.1 Firmware Upgrade Introduction
This section is only informative in case you are invited to upgrade the SW of the evaluation board.
The evaluation board you received is normally loaded with up-to-date software and it is ready to work. However, your support at Sequans
may ask you to upgrade the default software for some reasons at any time.
To upgrade your board you need to obtain the following from Sequans:
The Sequans Firmware Upgrade (SFU) Tool
- sfu_1.1-xxx
The SFU User Manual
- Monarch_SFU_UserGuide-RevX.pdf
- The new firmware to upload on the evaluation board: it is a file with the .dup extension (e.g.,
SQN66430-
REV2_B1B2B3B4B5B8B12B13B14B17B18B19B20B25B26B28B66B85_BBA1-RFA3-SKY6643011_LR5.4.1.0-
49576.dup
)
The first time you use SFU, you need to install it on your PC.
Figure 10. Sequans Firmware Upgrade (SFU) Program
Note:
The SFU program program operates on "UART 1". Refer to COM Ports Overview Tables on page 5 to map it for your setup.
8.2.2 Upgrading the Evaluation Board
For detailed SFU usage, please refer to the Monarch Software Release Note and the SFU User Manual documents.
8.3 DM Tool
This section is only informative in case you are invited to use DM Tool.
DM Tool is a Sequans proprietary tool, only needed for troubleshooting 3GPP protocols issues.
In general, all the operations on the evaluation board are to be run through AT Commands via serial terminal. DM Tool can allow
performing specific deep Monitoring and Debugging sessions.
When you are invited to use DM Tool, you need to have access to the following deliverables from your Sequans support.
DM Tool Installation Program (sqn4gdm_setup_1.x-xxx.exe)
Basic DM documentations are embedded in the tool itself, through the help Menu.
