Teseo-VIC3DA periodically outputs device version over UART – possible reset?

[RGOrdeig]

Hello,

I'm working with the Teseo-VIC3DA GNSS module on a custom board, and I’ve configured it to output both accelerometer and location data over UART.

However, I'm observing that periodically the device outputs a dump of its firmware version over UART. Similar to what is shown during boot. According to the datasheet, this kind of output usually occurs after a reset.

That said, I’ve been monitoring the GNSS fix, and it does not appear to be lost, even when this output occurs. I have monitored both the RESET and VDD lines and confirmed that the module is not being externally reset or power-cycled.

• Is there any configuration setting or NMEA'0 command that could cause the Teseo-VIC3DA to periodically reprint the firmware version or behave as if it’s restarting?
• Are there logs or debug outputs that can help distinguish between a soft reboot and a normal status message?

Hi Rodrigo,

Could you please let me know what version of firmware, you are using ? 

Also, can you please read out of CDB registers for the following?

CDB-300 

CDB 230

Example how to get parameters

$PSTMGETPAR,1300

This is the logs i get when resetting. I`m not sure what`s the firmware version you are referring to.
GNSSLIB_8.4.19.27.11_ARM
OS20LIB_4.4.0_ARM
GPSAPP_2.14.0.11_VIC3DA_ARM
BINIMG_4.6.18.11_VIC3DA_ARM
SWCFG_8406532d
STAGPSLIB_6.0.1_ARM
DRLIB_2.14.1_ARM
 STA8090_922bc043

I`ve sent $PSTMGETPAR,1300 and $PSTMGETPAR,1230.
This are the responses I`ve got:
$PSTMSETPAR,1300,1.000000e-01*4F
$PSTMGETPAR,1300*21
$PSTMSETPAR,1230,0x00000000*53
$PSTMGETPAR,1230*23

What are you looking for in this registers?

Hi Rodrgio,

I am running the following version, this is the latest version available on the web.

$PSTMVER,GNSSLIB_8.4.19.28.1_ARM*58
$PSTMVER,OS20LIB_4.4.0_ARM*40
$PSTMVER,GPSAPP_2.15.0.1_VIC3DA_ARM*00
$PSTMVER,BINIMG_4.6.19.1_VIC3DA_ARM*0F
$PSTMVER,SWCFG_8406532d*34
$PSTMVER,STAGPSLIB_6.0.1_ARM*5B
$PSTMVER,DRLIB_2.15.0_ARM*7E
$PSTMVER,STA8090_922bc043*60
$PSTMGETSWVER,255*17
$PSTMVER,GNSSLIB_8.4.19.28.1_ARM*58
$PSTMGETSWVER*09

 

Regarding seeing repeated PSTMVER message, after system boots, we get a PSTMVER message after the first 10 minutes. This is normal.

Can you please try with the latest version if possible?

Also I am assuming you have not changed any CDB settings from the default settings, have you ?
