Hello,

Thank you for reaching out with your inquiry about configuring the AzureWave AW-CM276NF module for regulatory compliance testing. I understand the importance of setting up both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth functionalities correctly for this purpose.

To configure the module in manufacturing/test mode, you will indeed need to utilize the NXP driver, which supports these functionalities. Here are some general guidelines to help you get started:

  1. Wi-Fi Configuration: The AzureWave AW-CM276NF module is based on the NXP 88W8997 chipset. Ensure that the NXP driver is properly installed and configured on your system. This driver is included in the Toradex BSP Layers and Reference Images for the Yocto Project and Torizon OS. You may need to adjust driver parameters to enable test modes, which typically involve setting specific flags or options in the driver configuration files.

  2. Bluetooth Configuration: Similar to the Wi-Fi setup, ensure that the Bluetooth functionality is enabled using the appropriate NXP drivers and tools. This may involve using specific commands or scripts to switch the Bluetooth module into test mode.

  3. Tools and Firmware: Make sure you have the latest firmware and tools that support the NXP chipset. These are generally included in the software packages provided by Toradex. Check your development environment to ensure all components are up to date.

  4. Best Practices for Testing: While specific testing procedures can vary, it is essential to ensure that the module operates within the specified frequency bands and power levels. Use calibrated and certified test equipment to validate performance.

  5. Pre-calibration: The AW-CM276NF module is pre-calibrated, with calibration data stored in the module’s OTP memory, which simplifies the testing process as no additional calibration is needed.

I hope this information helps you in your testing process. If you have further questions or need additional assistance, feel free to reach out.

Best regards,
