This procedure is to upgrade firmware in a Sedona Framework Developer Board (Dev Board), using the Jennic Serial Port tool, along with the supplied DB-9 serial cable, and if necessary, the supplied USB to RS-232 adapter cable. The same basic procedure applies to any serially-attached Sedona Jennic device.
Flash the firmware in a Sedona Framework Dev Board
It is recommended to upgrade the firmware in your Dev Board to the same level included in firmware archives of your Sedona Framework 1.1 distribution.
Open a Sox connection to the Dev Board and use the Sedona Sox Tools to make a backup of the device. For related details, refer to “About the Backup / Restore Tool” in the Sox Tools Guide.
From the Workbench menu bar, select
-> .The tool’s “Configuration View” displays, with Ports shown in the top pane “Port table”.
If no ports are listed, the tool is stopped. Click the start control
to start it, so ports list in the table.
In the row for COM port with attached serial cable (to Dev Board), click in Type and select flasher.
The bottom of the view changes to a single field for Firmware Archive.
Click the open folder icon at the end of the Firmware Archive field.
A popup Firmware Archive dialog appears.
Select the appropriate DR1105 firmware archive for your Sedona Framework Dev Board, where:
firmware-JN5139T01-DR1105.zip
if the Dev Board has the JN5139 low power module.
This is the firmware archive shown selected above.
firmware-JN5139T01-DR1105hp.zip
if the Dev Board has the JN5139 high power module.
firmware-JN5148T01-DR1105.zip
if the Dev Board has the JN5148 low power module.
firmware-JN5148T01-DR1105hp.zip
if the Dev Board has the JN5148 high power module.
If following this procedure to install a firmware archive for another vendor’s Jennic-based Sedona Framework device, refer to the vendor’s instructions on firmware archive selection.
The figure above shows a default Firmware Archive popup example for Sedona Framework Workbench 1.1. If using Niagara Workbench
enabled for Sedona Framework TXS 1.1, the default path will be longer (including “sedonaBundles”), but will end the same:
sedona/jennic/firmware
In addition, more firmware archive files will be listed. However, for the Sedona Framework Dev Board, you still select the
appropriate DR1105 firmware archive file, as described above.
In the Firmware Archive dialog, click the button.
The view changes to configure Jennic communication parameters for the two apps in the device.
The main Sedona Framework app in the device is listed at top, and the fallback app is listed below it. Both apps include fields to let you independently set:
Pan Id
Change (or accept) the Jennic PAN ID (Personal Area Network identifier), in hexadecimal, range 0x0000 to 0xFFFE for the network.
The Pan Id must match the PAN ID of whatever Jennic network the device will be connecting to.
Rf Channel Map
As needed, click to set or clear individual Jennic RF channels for monitoring/usage. Note the
and buttons can be useful when doing this.You can select as many channels as you like, but you must select the channel being used by the Jennic network the device will be connecting to. If you don't know which channel you need, you can select all of them for now.
Set these values as needed (you may wish to have the same or different parameters for the two apps).
Click the Flash button. A popup JenFlasher dialog asks to put the device in program mode.
