Hi,
to familiarize myself with EndDevice RAK7205 I did the Burning Bootloader into the Device and Upgrading the Firmware procedures.
Before doing so I sent the AT command at+set_config=device:restart

The version was: RAK5205 Version:3.0.0.14.H.beta4

After the procedures described in RAK Documentation Center:

The version is: RAK5205 Version:3.0.0.12.H.T1, I took a downgrade!!!

Questions:

  1. I need to update RAK811 board core? If the answer is yes as I should do.
  2. Perhaps for point 1 the concept is described by @Fomi in Altitude incorrect RAK 5205 firmware 3.0.0.6
  3. After updating the firmware DevEui is set at 343737306B398014 instead of AppEui and AppKey they are zeros. DevEui is reported on the chip/label. Where can I find AppEui and AppKey ?

Thank you for your attention

We are going to fix the confusion on the Documenation.

The FW on the docs center is only RAK5205 Version:3.0.0.12.H.T1. I can try to get the FW 3.0.0.14.H if you need it.

Regarding #1 and #2, those are addressed already on 3.0.0.12. Change log is here RAKwireless Downloads

You can get the AppEUI and AppKEY on the network server you are using.

Thanks Carl for your quick reply.

Hi Carlrowan, RUI Online say that compiler only supports firmware versions 3.x.x.14 and later. But for RAK5205 (included in the RUI examples documents) it’s only avalible to download the V3.0.0.12. Can I get the 3.0.0.14 version?

I will ask for v3.0.0.14 and get back to you :+1:
