Wifi and BLE frequency test

[MalloryLP]

Hi,

I'm trying to combine Wifi and BLE frequency test on nRF7002 DK. I started with radio_test example on nRF SDK 2.9.1 and toolchain 3.0.2.

I have added CONFIG_NRF70_RADIO_TEST_COMBO=y to prj.conf as suggested on others tickets. The project is compiling and I can send commands to tests the wifi on VCOM1 (logs from app core). On VCOM0, " *** Booting nRF Connect SDK v3.5.99-ncs1 *** " is printed twice but nothing after on net core. I can't send ble test commands  like "start_tx_carrier" and i have no more logs.

Any suggestions ?

Best regards,

Mallory.

Hi

 I would also recommend that you change toolchain version so that it matches the version of NCS you are using. 

When you tried this, which sample did you use as starting point? You should be using the wifi/radio test sample

Hi,

I'm starting with this project : https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ncs-2.9.1/page/nrf/samples/wifi/radio_test/README.html

Noted, switching to SDK V2.9.1 and toolchain V2.9.1 also.

Best regards,

Mallory.

In addition, this are the uart terminal outputs:

Sorry for the delay. My recommendation would be to run this sample on NCS 3.+ as they have made it ready for multidomain out of the box

No problem.

I followaed your recommandations and started a new project based on Wi-Fi: Radio test (Multi domain) with NRF SDK V3.1 and Toolchain V3.1.

I tried to built the project but CONFIG_NRF70_RADIO_TEST_COMBO is not reconnized :

Hi

With the 3.1 sample you should not need to set the kconfig anymore. just build with west build -b "board" -p -T 

sample.nrf7002.radio_test_combo . 

[MalloryLP]

Ok great it worked, many thanks.

Another question : is it possible to merge UART from APP core and UART from NET core in order to have only one UART for both ?

Best regards,

Mallory.

[runsiv]

Hi!
I would not think it is possible without major work on the application which I would not recommend

[MalloryLP]

Hi,

And using VCOM ports like with DKs ?

Best regards,

Mallory.

[MalloryLP]

I tried it on a custom board with nrf5340 and nrf7001 but it is not working (nothing on NET core uart0). All the modifications to switch from nrf7002 to nrf7001 have been made and wifi test is working well.
