Error updating Z-Station firmware

Post by beeguy123 »

Hi I just purchased a Z-Station and have tried updating the firmware to use OpenThread.
I used command

Code: Select all

./zme_zigbee update open_thread_EFR32MG21A020F1024IM32.gbl -d /dev/ttyUSB1 -p 12
The result was

Code: Select all

Openning port                            ..............................                            OK

Note that prior to this, an info command appeared to work fine. But now this too results in

I do this on a Raspberry Pi 4.
Please advise what may be the cause.
(Just a hunch : does my installed python version play any role ? I have tried with 3.9 and 3.11)

Once you have uploaded the OT firmware, zme_zigbee is not able anymore to communicate with it. You can try the

Code: Select all

./zme_openthread info -d /dev/ttyUSB1
to see the device info and confirm it works.

Thank you ! Indeed I had just realized that it is in fact working and not an error after all.
