Difference between NRF9160_xxAA_REV1 and NRF9160_xxAA_FUTURE?

[Alan Hasty]

Hello,

Was programming two different boards today with the new 1.1.0 modem firmware.

Programmer reported the following for the two boards.

2019-11-21T21:10:34.297Z INFO Model: NRF9160_xxAA_REV1.

2019-11-21T21:12:28.398Z INFO Model: NRF9160_xxAA_FUTURE.

What is the difference between these two? I was expecting them to be the same?

Hi,

 

Not sure why it prints the model as future. It should print it as REV1 (or engineering for old DKs), as that is the only production device that is available.

Thank you for letting us know and for helping us improve our tools, its highly appreciated! I'll report this internally, so that we can fix these messages.

 

Kind regards,

Håkon
