rsi_opermode :: Operating Mode#

Description#

This is the first AT command that needs to be sent from the Host after receiving the card ready frame from the module. This command configures the module in different functional modes.

Command Format#

Note that all parameters are shown on a new line to make the command format easier to read.

at+rsi_opermode=<oper_mode>,
                <feature_bit_map>,
                <tcp_ip_feature_bit_map>,
                <custom_feature_bit_map>,
                <ext_custom_feature_bit_map>,
                <bt_feature_bit_map>,
                <ext_tcp_ip_feature_bit_map>,
                <ble_feature_bit_map>,
                <ble_coustom_ext_feature_bit_map>,
                <config_feature_bit_map>

Some arguments for the rsi_opermode command are only enabled when conditions according to the following table are met.

The argument ...

is enabled when ...

<ext_custom_feature_bit_map>

custom_feature_bitmap[31] = 1

<ext_tcp_ip_feature_bit_map>

tcp_ip_feature_bit_map[31] = 1

<bt_feature_bit_map>

custom_feature_bit_map[31] = 1, ext_custom_feature_bit_map[31] = 1

<ble_feature_bit_map>

custom_feature_bitmap[31] = 1, ext_custom_feature_bit_map[31] = 1, bt_feature_bit_map[31] = 1

<ble_custom_ext_feature_bit_map>

ble_feature_bit_map[31] = 1

<config_feature_bit_map>

tcp_ip_feature_bit_map[31] = 1, ext_tcp_ip_feature_bit_map[31] = 1

Parameters#

oper_mode

  • Sets the mode of operation. <oper_mode> contains two parts <wifi_oper_mode, coex_mode>. The lower two bytes represents wifi_oper_mode and higher two bytes represents coex_modes.

  oper_mode = ((wifi_oper_mode) | (coex_mode << 16))

where ...

wifi_oper_mode

Meaning

Description

0

Wi-Fi Client Mode

The module works as a normal client that can connect to an Access Point with different security modes other than enterprise security.

2

Enterprise Security Client Mode

The module works as a client that can connect to an Access Point with WPA/WPA2-Enterprise security.

6

Access Point mode

In this mode, the module acts as an Access Point, depending on the inputs supplied for the command 'Configure AP Mode'. In Access Point mode, a Maximum of 16 clients can connect based on the bits set in custom feature bit map selection in opermode. Enable DHCP server by tcp_ip_feature_bit_map.

8

PER Mode.

This mode is used for calculating packet error rate and mostly used during RF certification tests.

9

Concurrent mode

This mode is used to run module in concurrent mode. In concurrent mode, host can connect to a AP and can create AP simultaneously.


Note!

Opermode WiFi-Direct(1) mode is not supported.


Note!

When operating in Concurrent Mode:

  1. Upto 4 station devices can be connected to Concurrent AP.

  2. The STA and AP may operate in different security modes.

  3. The AP's MAC address can be determined by incrementing the last byte of STA's MAC address by 1.

  4. In TCP/IP non-bypass mode, Broadcast / Multicast packet goes to first created interface (e.g. if station connects first, the broadcast / multicast packet goes to the network that belongs to station).

  5. Background scan, aggregation or IPv6 are not supported.

  6. The station and AP interfaces must be configured to the same channel.

  7. If AP is started first and selected channel scan is issued, it may return results from other channels. However, it is only possible to join in Concurrent AP's channel.

  8. If STA is connected first, then AP should be explicitly started in the same channel as STA. Auto channel selection (channel 0) for AP is not supported in this case.

  9. If AP and STA are running and the channel of external AP (to which the concurrent STA is connected) is changed, then the STA may attempt to rejoin in the old channel only.

Note!

  1. Co-ex modes are supported only in 384K memory configuration.

  2. For WLAN Co-ex mode, AP mode scan is not allowed.

If Co-ex mode is enabled in opermode command, then BT / BLE protocol will start and give corresponding card ready in parallel with opermode command response (which will be handled by corresponding application). BT card ready frame is described in the RS9116W BT Classic AT Command Programming Reference Manual and BLE card ready frame is described in the RS9116W BLE AT Command Programming Reference Manual

rsi_gain_table :: Configure Gain Table#

Description#

This command overwrites the default region based gain tables (present in firmware) with user-defined region based gain tables. The 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz gain tables can be loaded consecutively by changing the band. This command should be issued immediately after the init command. Customer can load the two gain tables (i.e., 2.4GHz-20Mhz, 5GHz-20Mhz) one after other by changing band.


Note! Internally, firmware maintains two tables : Worldwide table and Region-based table. Worldwide table is populated by firmware with Max power values that chip can transmit that meets target specifications like EVM. Region-based table has default gain value set.

  1. When certifying with user antenna, Region must be set to Worldwide and sweep the power from 0 to 21 dBm. Arrive at max power level that is passing certification especially band-edge.

  2. These FCC/ETSI/TELEC/KCC Max power level should be loaded in end-to-end mode via WLAN User Gain table. This must be called done every boot-up since this information is not saved inside flash. Region based user gain table sent by application is copied onto Region based table .SoC uses this table in FCC/ETSI/TELEC/KCC to limit power and not to violate allowed limits.

For Worldwide region, the firmware uses Worldwide table for Tx. For other regions (FCC/ETSI/TELEC/KCC), the firmware uses min value out of Worldwide & Region based table for Tx. Also, there will be part to part variation across chips and offsets are estimated during manufacturing flow which will be applied as correction factor during normal mode of operation. This frame must be used by customers who has done FCC/ETSI/TELEC/KCC certification with their own antenna. All other customers should not use this. Inappropriate use of this frame may result in violation of FCC/ETSI/TELEC/KCC or any certifications, and Silicon Labs is not liable for that.

length (2 bytes)

  • Configure length of the transmit packet. Valid values are in the range:

    • [24 .. 1500] bytes in burst mode

    • [24 ... 260] bytes in continuous mode

mode (2 bytes)

  • Transmit mode

4

CW Mode (unmodulated) with a single tone at: center frequency + 5 MHz


Note!

Burst Mode

DUT transmits a burst of packets with the given power, rate, length in the channel configured. The burst size will be determined by the <number of packets> and if its zero, then DUT keeps transmitting till a rsi_transmit_test_stop API is called.

Continuous Mode

The DUT transmits an unmodulated waveform continuously.

Continuous Wave Mode (Non-Modulation) in DC Mode:

The DUT transmits a spectrum only at the center frequency of the channel. A basic signal with no modulation is that of a sine wave and is usually referred to as a continuous wave (CW) signal. A basic signal source produces sine waves. Ideally, the sine wave is perfect. In the frequency domain, it is viewed as a single line at some specified frequency.

Continuous Wave Mode (Non-Modulation) in Single Tone Mode (Center frequency -2.5 MHz):

The DUT transmits a spectrum that is generated at -2.5 MHz from the center frequency of the channel selected. Some amount of carrier leakage will be seen at Center Frequency.

For example, for 2412 MHz the output will be seen at 2409.5 MHz

Continuous Wave Mode (Non-Modulation) in Single Tone Mode (Center frequency +5 MHz):

The DUT transmits a spectrum that is generated at 5MHz from the center frequency of the channel selected. Some amount of carrier leakage will be seen at Center Frequency.

For example, for 2412 MHz the output will be seen at 2417 MHz.


Note!

  • Before starting CW mode, it is required to start Continuous mode with power and channel values which is intended to be used in CW mode as follows:

    • Start Continuous mode with intended power value and channel value; pass any valid values for rate and length

    • Stop Continuous mode

    • Start CW mode.

  • To switch CW mode, stop PER mode and then give CW mode to where the user wants to switch to

  • Generally, it is recommended to measure the TX power with "Burst mode or Continuous mode" only. "Continuous wave mode" for TX power measurement is not recommended. "Continuous wave mode" can be used for certification purposes and that to measure the frequency error.


channel (2 bytes)

  • Sets the channel number in 2.4 GHz / 5 GHz. The following tables map the channel number to the actual radio frequency in the 2.4 GHz spectrum. To support PER mode in channels 12 and 13, the correct region command must be given by the host before the PER command.

rsi_calib_write :: Write Calibration Data#

Description#

This API is used during the RF calibration process and requires PER mode transmissions to be initiated prior. This API will command the firmware to update the existing Flash/EFuse calibration data with the xo ctune (given or picked from hardware register) and gain offset values. This command is relevant in PER mode.

The rsi_freq_offset command needs to be called before this command when xo ctune value from hardware register is to be used.

Command Format#

at+rsi_calib_write=<target>,<flags>,<gain_offset_low>,<gain_offset_mid>,<gain_offset_high>,<xo_ctune>

Parameters#

target (1 byte)

  • Sets the target for calibration data

    • 0 - BURN_INTO_EFUSE. Burns calibration data to EFuse

    • 1 - BURN_INTO_FLASH. Burns calibration data to Flash

flags (1 byte)

  • Bit 0 = RESERVED_0

    • Reserved

  • Bit 1 = BURN_FREQ_OFFSET

    • 0 - Skip XO Ctune update

    • 1 - Update XO Ctune to calibration data

  • Bit 2 = SW_XO_CTUNE_VALID

    • 0 - Use XO Ctune value as read from hardware register

    • 1 - Use XO Ctune provided as argument to update calibration data

  • Bit 3 = BURN_XO_FAST_DISABLE

    • This BIT is used to apply patch for cold temperature issue on CC0/CC1 module.

  • Bit 4 = BURN_GAIN_OFFSET_LOW

    • 0 - Skip low sub-band gain-offset update

    • 1 - Update gain offset for low sub-band (2 GHz).

  • Bit 5 = BURN_GAIN_OFFSET_MID

    • 0 - Skip mid sub-band gain-offset update

    • 1 - Update gain offset for mid sub-band (2 GHz).

  • Bit 6 = BURN_GAIN_OFFSET_HIGH

    • 0 - Skip high sub-band gain-offset update

    • 1 - Update gain offset for high sub-band (2 GHz).

  • Bits 31-4 = Reserved

gain_offset_low (1 byte)

  • gain_offset as observed in dBm in channel-1

gain_offset_mid (1 byte)

  • gain_offset as observed in dBm in channel-6

gain_offset_high (1 byte)

  • gain_offset as observed in dBm in channel-11

xo_ctune (1 byte)

  • This field allows user to directly update xo_ctune value to calibration data bypassing the freq offset loop, valid only when BURN_FREQ_OFFSET and SW_XO_CTUNE_VALID flags are set.


Note!

For gain-offset calibration in 2 GHz, the user needs to calibrate gain-offset for low sub-band (channel-1), mid sub-band (channel-6), and high sub-band (channel-11) and input the three gain-offsets to this command and set the corresponding flags to validate it#

Response#

Value

Description

0

Success

Non Zero Value

Failure

Example#

The gain offset can be calculated with the following equation.

gain_offset = observed_power_level + cable_loss - configured_power_level

where ...

  • observed_power_level = 14.3 dBm

  • cable_loss = 1.7 dB

  • configured_power_level = 18.0 dBm

To write the gain offset as -2 dBm into flash/efuse, use the following command.

at+rsi_calib_write=1,1,-2

To write the xo_ctune value available in the hardware register to flash/efuse (after frequency calibration is performed), use the following command.

at+rsi_calib_write=1,2,0

To write a user configured xo_ctune value to flash/efuse (without performing the frequency calibration process), use the following command. Note that xo_ctune is in the range [0..255].

at+rsi_calib_write=1,2,0,<xo_ctune>

Note! To recalibrate the gain offset after it has been burnt to flash, the gain offset must be reset first, followed by the standard calibration flow. Recalibration is not possible if the EFuse is being used instead of flash. To reset the gain offset, use rsi_calib_write = 1,1,0.

psk (64 bytes)

  • PSK of the AP in security mode.

    • If the AP is in Open mode, this parameter can be set to 0.

    • If the security mode is WPA/WPA2, the PSK must between 8 and 63 bytes.

beacon_interval (2 bytes)

  • Beacon interval of the AP in milliseconds. Allowed values are integers in the range 100 to 1000 in multiples of 100.

dtim_period (2 bytes)

  • DTIM period. Allowed values are from 1 to 255

ap_keepalive_type (1 byte)

  • This is the bitmap to enable AP keep alive functionality and to select the keep alive type.

    • BIT[0] - Enable/disable keep alive functionality.

      • 0 - To disable keep alive functionality

      • 1 - To enable keep alive functionality

    • BIT[1] - Select AP keep alive method.

      • 0 - Default keep alive functionality i.e. disconnect the station if there are no wireless exchanges from station with in ap_keepalive_period

      • 1 - Enable null data frame based keep alive functionality.

ap_keepalive_period (1 byte)

  • This is the period after which AP will disconnect the station if there are no wireless exchanges from station to AP. Keep alive period is calculated in terms of 32 multiples of beacon interval i.e if there are no wireless transfers from station to AP with in (32 x beacon_interval = keep_alive_period) milliseconds time period, station will be disconnected. If null data based method is selected, AP checks the connectivity of station by sending null data packet. If station does not acknowledge the packet, that station will be disconnected from AP after 4 retries.

max_sta_support (2 bytes)

  • Number of clients supported. This value should be less than or equal to the value given in custom feature select bit map BIT[13:16] of the Set Operating Mode command. If value is not set in custom feature select bit map BIT[13:16] of the Set Operating Mode then maximum supported stations are 4.


Note! RS9116W supports for connecting 16 clients to the created AP by setting custom_feature_bit_map[13:16]](https://docs.silabs.com/rs9116-wiseconnect/latest/wifibt-wc-sapi-reference/opermode#rsi-custom-feature-bit-map) and extended_custom_feature_bit_map[15]](https://docs.silabs.com/rs9116-wiseconnect/latest/wifibt-wc-sapi-reference/opermode#rsi-ext-custom-feature-bit-map) by using the equation mentioned below:

Number of stations = (Stations Obtained by setting BIT[13-16] + 1 ) * 2

For example, if the host wants 16 clients support in AP, then set following bits: BIT[13], BIT[14] and BIT[15] (leave BIT[16] as 0 ) in custom feature bitmap and BIT[15] in extended custom feature bitmap, then the number of stations will become (7+1) * 2 = 16. If configuring more than 16 stations, it will throw an error. If the extended custom feature bitmap is not set, then it can configure a maximum of 8 stations. This is Backward Compatibility. Also, if configuring more than 8 stations, it will throw an error

rsi_scan :: Wi-Fi Scan#

Description#

This command scans for Access Points and gives the scan results to the host. The scan results are sorted in decreasing order of signal strength (RSSI value). The scanned access point with highest signal strength will be the first in the list. This command has to be issued after init (#rsi_init---initialize-phy-and-radio) command and before join (#rsi_join---wifi-join) command.

Command Format#

There are two command format options available:

  1. Scanning multiple channels

  2. Scanning a specific channel

at+rsi_scan=<channel>,<ssid>,<channel_bit_map_2_4>,<channel_bit_map_5>

at+rsi_scan=<channel>,<ssid>,<scan_feature_bitmap>

Parameters#

Channel (4 byte)

  • Channel Number on which scan has to be done. If this value is 0, the module scans in all the channels in the band that is selected through the band command. The values of this parameter are listed in table below To select DFS channels user need to set custom feature bit in opermode command.


Note!

  • If chan_num is 0 and channel bit maps (selective scan) are provided, then module will scan only the channels specified in bitmaps instead of scanning all channels.

  • In case of 5GHz, module performs passive scan in DFS channels only when BIT[8] is set in custom feature bit map in Set Operating Mode command.

  • scan feature bitmap

    • BIT[0] (QUICK SCAN feature) - It is valid only if channel number and ssid is given.

  • If channel bitmap is specified, module will scan only channels which are valid in selected region

Parameters#

ssid (34 bytes)

  • When the module is in Operating modes 0 or 2, this parameter is the SSID of the Access Point (assuming WPS is not enabled in the Access Point).

  • When the module is in operating modes 0 or 2, and wants to connect to an access point in WPS mode then the value of this parameter is NULL .

  • When an Access Point needs to be created, this parameter should be the same as the parameter ssid in the command "Configure AP mode".


Note!

  1. To support a comma , in the SSID, enclose the SSID in double quotes e.g. “MY, NETWORK”

  2. Double quotes " in the SSID are not supported.

5

Connect to AP in EAP WPA2 mode

6

Connect to AP in either WPA/WPA2 mode (Mixed mode → It gives priority to WPA2 configured AP)

7

Connect to AP in WPA3 Personal Mode

8

Connect to AP either in WPA2 or WPA3 Personal Mode


Note!

  • Security_mode parameter is valid only if opermode is 0, 2 or 9.

  • psk is required for security mode 1,2,7. Otherwise, the module returns Join failure with error 0x16.

  • In Enterprise mode(Security_mode 4,5), module will derive the PSK using EAP exchanges with Authentication server.

  • Module strictly obey security mode specified in Join command, not depends on PSK.

  • In opermode 6, Once Access point is created host can enable WPS PUSH method by giving join command (with same parameters which were used to create Access point) again.

  • WPS method is not supported in CoEx mode.

  • In open mode, WEP mode, Enterprise Security, this should be filled with NULL characters.

  • WPA3 STA supports both H2E and Hunting-and-pecking for WPA3 authentication. It picks authentication algorithm based on AP's capability.

  • WPA3 STA supports PMKSA caching. If STA has valid PMKID (generated after first connection) with an AP it will trigger OPEN authentication for successive connection attempts. By default the lifetime for PMKSA entry is 12 hours.

  • In WPA3 Personal Transition Mode if both WPA2 and WPA3 APs are available in scan results, STA will pick the AP which has strongest RSSI (it could be either WPA2 or WPA3).

  • If any WPA3 AP enables Transition Disable Indication, from that moment onwards STA in transistion mode will not try connections to WPA2 APs. This behavior will persist until reset of the STA.

Note!

  1. BIT[5] and BIT[6] of join_feature_bit_map must be set for enabling WPA3 Personal Mode security.

  2. For enabling WPA3 Personal Transition mode security, join_feature_bit_map BIT[5] must be set and BIT[6] must be clear.


listen_interval (4 bytes)

  • This is valid only if join_feature_bit_map[1] is set. This value is given in time units (1024 microseconds). This parameter is used to configure maximum sleep duration in powersave.


Note! To ensure data for module is buffered for sufficient time in access point,

  1. Listen interval in association request is incremented by 6 if user configured interval is greater than 11.

  2. If user configured listen interval less than or equal to 11, by default module will send listen interval 16 in association request. But during powersave module goes to sleep for user defined listen interval only


vap_id (1 byte)

  • Create a virtual access point (AP).

    • 0 – Module will try to connect to scanned AP.

    • 1 – Module will create AP.

join_bssid (6 bytes)

  • This contains BSSID of selected AP. This is valid only if join_feature_bitmap[4] is set otherwise module will ignore the value.


Note!

  1. vap_id will be considered only in concurrent mode.

  2. In concurrent mode, if connected station network is same as default dhcp server network then dhcp server will not start but join command for AP creation will give success message to host.

  3. For join with BSSID don’t use spaces or colons between MAC address in join command.

rsi_pwmode :: Power Mode#

Description#

This command configures the powersave mode of the module. Powersave is disabled by default. The command can be issued any time after the #join command in case of powersave mode 1, 2 and 3.

And after #init command before join command in case of powersave mode 8 and 9.


Note!

  1. RS9116-WiSeConnect doesn't support powersave modes while operating in AP or group owner mode.

  2. In SPI interface when ULP mode is enabled, after wakeup from sleep, host must initialize SPI interface of the module.

  3. To use num_of_dtim_skip feature, listen interval should be disable in join command, listen_interval_dtim param in at+rsi_pwmode command should be 1 (DTIM alligned).

listen_interval_dtim (1 byte)

  • According to set or reset of this param, the module computes the desired sleep duration based on listen interval (from join command) and its wakeup alignment with Beacon or DTIM Beacon (based on this parameter).

    • 0 - Module wakes up before nearest Beacon that does not exceed the specified listen interval time.

    • 1 - Module wakes up before nearest DTIM Beacon that does not exceed the specified listen interval time.

psp_type (1 byte)

  • This parameter shows powersave procedure type used. Following is the values for the psp_type.

    • 0 – Max powersave procedure

    • 1 – Fast powersave procedure

    • 2 – UAPSD powersave procedure

  • The recommended PSP mode is called ENHANCED MAX PSP. This is essentially a MAX PSP mode but switches to Fast PSP mode if AP does not deliver data within 20ms for PS-Poll. To enable this mode please follow below procedure.

    • Enable BIT(26) in CONFIG_FEATURE_BITMAP

    • Set psp_type = 1 (Fast PSP)

    • Configure Monitor interval as required


Note!

  1. When Fast PSP is enabled, module will disable powersave for monitor_interval of time for each data packet received or sent.

  2. UAPSD powersave is valid only if wmm is enabled through at+rsi_wmm_config command


monitor_interval (2 bytes)

  • This is the time in ms to keep module in wakeup state for each TX or RX traffic sent or received respectively. Default value for this is 50 ms.

num_of_dtim_skip (1 byte)#

  • This parameter is to skip the number of DTIM. If its value is n then our module will wakeup at (n+1)th DTIM at each wakeup cycle.

  • To use this feature, ensure following condition: BIT(1) is reset in the join_feature_bitmap in join command.

listen_interval (2 bytes)

  • This is valid only if BIT(7) in join_feature_bit_map is set. This value is given in time units (1024 microseconds). This parameter is used to configure maximum listen interval in powersave and should be less than the listen interval configured in join command.

Availability#

This command is available when the module is configured in Operating Mode 0,5,9,13 Module can configure Coex modes are 1,5,9,12,13.

Powersave Operation#

The behavior of the module differs according to the powersave mode configured. The following terminology is used in the below section in order to describe the functionality.

Protocol

Non Connected State

Connected State

WLAN

This mode is significant when module is not connected with any AP. In non-connected state, powersave modes supported are 8 and 9.

This mode is significant when module is in associated state with AP. In connected state, Powersave modes supported are 2 and 3.

BT Classic

This mode is significant when module is in Idle (standby) state.

This mode is significant when module is in Connected sniff mode, Discoverable mode (ISCAN) and Connectable mode (PSCAN)

BLE

This mode is significant when module is in Idle (standby) state.

This mode is significant when module is in Advertising state, scan state or connected state.


Note!

  1. In case of WLAN, wake up period will be calculated based on DTIM interval.

  2. In case of BT-Classic, wake up period will be calculated based on inquiry scan interval in discoverable mode, page scan interval in connectable mode and sniff interval in connected mode.

  3. In case of BLE, wake up period will be calculated based on advertise interval in advertising state, scan interval in scanning state and connection interval in connected state.

  4. If incase BT/BLE wakeup period is less than the WLAN wakeup period, the module will wake up and serves BT/BLE and goes back to the sleep again.


Powersave: Mode 0#

In this mode, module is active and powersave is disabled. It can be configured any time, while powersave is enabled with powersave mode 2 or powersave mode 8.

Powersave: Mode 1#

Once the module is configured in powersave mode 1, it wakes up periodically based upon the DTIM interval configured in the connected AP. In power mode 1, only the RF part of the module is in power save while SoC continues to work normally. This command has to be given only when the module is in the connected state (with the AP).

After configuring the module to powersave mode 1, the host can issue subsequent commands. In powersave mode 1, the module can receive data from the host at any point in time, but it can send/receive the data to/from the remote terminal (like a remote socket), only when it wakes up at DTIM interval.

Figure: Powersave: Mode 1Figure: Powersave: Mode 1

Powersave: Mode 2#

Once the module is configured in powersave mode 2, it can be woken up either by the host or periodically during its sleep-wake-up cycle based upon the DTIM interval. Power mode 2 uses GPIO based handshake.

In ULP mode, feature_bit_map[4] has to be set in opermode command.

In this mode, when the host wants to send data to the module, it sends a wakeup request to the module by asserting ULP_GPIO_5 high in the case of LP or UULP_GPIO_2 in case of ULP (which make the module wake up from powersave). After wakeup, if the module is ready for data transfer, it sends a wakeup indication to the host by asserting the UULP_GPIO_3 or UULP_GPIO_0.

The host is required to wait until the module gives the wakeup indication, before sending any data to the module. After completion of data, the host can give sleep permission to the module by de-asserting ULP_GPIO_5 in the case of LP or UULP_GPIO_2 in the case of ULP. After recognizing sleep permission from the host, the module confirms the host by de-asserting UULP_GPIO_3 or UULP_GPIO_0 and goes back to its sleep-wakeup cycle.

The module can send a received packet or response to the host at any point in time. No handshake is required on the receive path.

Figure: Powersave: Mode 2Figure: Powersave: Mode 2

Powersave: Mode 3#

Powersave Mode 3 uses a Message-based handshake. In Powersave Mode 3, both radio and SoC of RS9116- WiSeConnect are in powersave.

This mode is significant when the module is connected to the AP. Module wakes up periodically every DTIM and sends a wakeup message ("WKP") to the host. The module cannot be woken up asynchronously.

Every time module intends to go to sleep it sends a sleep request message ("SLP") to the host and expects the host to send the ACK message ("ACK"). Host either sends an acknowledgment message ("ACK") or any other pending message. But once ACK is sent, the host should not send any other message until the next wakeup message from the module is received.

The module will not go into complete power save state if ACK is not received from the host for the sent sleep message ("SLP"). The module can send a received packet or response to the host at any point in time. No handshake is required on the receive path.

Figure: Powersave Mode 3Figure: Powersave Mode 3

Powersave: Mode 8#

Powersave mode 8 uses GPIO based handshake. This command must be issued after the #init command. In Powersave Mode 8 both RF and SoC of RS9116-WiSeConnect are in complete powersave mode. This mode is significant when the module is not connected with any AP.

In ULP mode, feature_bit_map[4] has to be set in opermode command. In the case of LP (when ulp_mode_enable is 0) host can wake up the module from power save by asserting ULP_GPIO_5. In the case of ULP (when ulp_mode_enable is 1 or 2) host can wake up the module from power save by asserting UULP_GPIO_2.

When ulp_mode_enable is set to 0 or 1, once the module gets a wake-up request from the host, DUT wakes up and indicates it is awake by asserting UULP_GPIO_3 or UULP_GPIO_0 based on the Wakeup indication GPIO selection in opermode command. The host is required to wait until the module gives the wakeup indication, before sending any next command to the module. After completion of command/data, the host can give sleep permission to the module by de-asserting ULP_GPIO_5 in the case of LP or UULP_GPIO_2 in the case of ULP. After recognizing sleep permission from the host, the module confirms the host by de-asserting UULP_GPIO_3 or UULP_GPIO_0 and goes back to its sleep-wakeup cycle.

The module can send a received packet or response to the host at any point in time. No handshake is required on the receive path.

When ulp_mode_enable is set to 2, after the module wakes up from sleep, the host needs to start giving commands from the beginning(opermode) as the module's state is not retained.

Figure: Powersave Mode 8Figure: Powersave Mode 8


Note! By default UULP_GPIO_3 is used for wakeup indication to host. If config_feature_bit_map[0] = 1 then UULP_GPIO_0 is used for wakeup indication to host.


Powersave: Mode 9#

Powersave Mode 9 uses a Message-based handshake. In this mode, the entire module, including the radio, enters powersave mode. This mode is significant when the module is not connected with any AP.

After receiving a powersave mode 9 command, the module sends SLP (Sleep) request to the host and waits for an ACK from the host. After the ACK (Acknowledgement) is received, the module goes to sleep. The sleep timer starts when powersave command is received. It can be configured by the host using the at+rsi_sleeptimer command. If the host does not set any sleep time, the timer is configured for 3 seconds by default. Upon wakeup, the module sends a wakeup message to the host and expects the host to send an ack before it goes into the next sleep cycle. The host either sends an ACK or a message. However, once an ACK is sent, no other packet should be sent before receiving the next wakeup message.

When ulp_mode_enable is set to 2, after waking up from sleep, the module sends the wakeup from sleep message (WKP FRM SLEEP) to the host when RAM retention is not enabled. After receiving the message, the host needs to start giving commands from the beginning (opermode) as the module's state is not retained.

Note! Sleep Timer starts when SLP request is sent to the host. Sleep time varies based on the ACK sent by the host. If the ACK sent by the host is delayed, Module will be in sleep state for the remaining time.

rsi_cert :: Set TLS Certificate#

Description#

This command is used to load/erase SSL/TLS (certificate and private keys) and enterprise security (EAP-TLS or EAP-FAST) certificates. Certificates should be loaded before using SSL/EAP. This command should be sent before join command for enterprise security mode and before socket creation for SSL sockets. Certificates will be loaded in non-volatile memory of the module, so that loading certificate is required to be done only once.


Note!

  • Enable powersave before loading certificates if the module is in Wi-Fi connected state.

  • Need to shut down the SSL socket for which it wants to change the certificates, if the socket is already in the connected state, otherwise, the firmware will throw an error.


Command Format#

17

EAP private key

33

EAP public key

49

EAP CA certificate

total_len (2 bytes)

  • Certificate's total length in bytes.


Note!

  • For Enterprise security, maximum certificate length should be 12280 bytes. For TLS Certificates, the max length is 12280 bytes and for the Private Keys, it is 4088 bytes.

  • Module shares same TLS certificates for all supported SSL sockets.

  • For enterprise, user can load certificates in two ways

    • User can provide wifiuser.pem which contains 4 certificates in a given fixed order of private key, client certificate 1, client certificate 2, CA certificate with CertType as 1.

    • User can load individual EAP certificates private key, public key, and CA certificates with CertType as 17,33 and 49 respectively. Maximum certificate length for each individual certificates is 4088 bytes

  • Certificate Loading into Flash is only allowed upto init state. After init state e.g. scan/join etc certificate loading into flash is not allowed.

  • Certificate Loading into RAM is allowed in connected state also provided same type of socket already does not exist. For example, loading client cert is only allowed if there does not exist any client socket. Same is for server certificates too

  • Root certificate has the highest authority being at the top of the signing hierarchy.

  • Root certificate is an expected/required certificate which usually comes pre-installed in the operating systems and it plays a key part in certificate chain verification when a device is performing TLS authentication with the IoT endpoint.

  • On RS9116 device, we do not maintain root trust repository due to memory constraints, so it is mandatory to load Root certificate for successful mutual authentication.

  • On RS9116 to authenticate, firstly Root CA is validated (validate the Root CA received with the Root CA loaded on the device). Once the Root CA is validation is successful , other certificates sent from the server are validated.

  • RS9116 will not be able to authenticate to server if intermediate CA certificates are loaded instead of Root CA and would result in Handshake error.

  • The valid certificate format to load into the module is .pem. It is recommended to use loading of single certificate method (wifiuser.pem)

  • By default, TLS certificates will be loaded onto flash. Set BIT(27) in tcp_ip_feature_bit_map to load TLS certificate onto RAM.

key_pwd(128 bytes)

  • Reserved.

certificate

  • This is the data of the actual certificate.

  • To erase a certificate, set total_len, key_pwd, certificate fields '0'. cert_type should be set to type of the certificate to erase as mentioned above. See the following example.

Example#

The following example shows the procedure for loading certificates using Python on a PC. Requirements: Python 2.7.10 and pyserial

It may not be possible to issue this command in Hyper-terminal because the content of a certificate file needs to be supplied as one of the inputs of the command. This can be done by other means, such as using a Python script.

  1. Loading or erasing the certificates should be performed only after the opermode command has been issued.

  2. Before loading the certificate, certificates should be erase the certificate.

  3. To load the certificate, run the python script load_certificate.py available in the WiSeConnect SDK utilities folder

  • Copy load_certificate.py to ...\resouces\certificates folder in the SDK.

  • Ensure the serial port and baudrate of the hardware e.g. sp=serial.Serial(port="COMx",baudrate=115200,timeout=0.01))

  • Run the python scripts using -> python load_certificate.py <CertType> <Certificate>

  • After successful certificate loading, the script respondes with OK

rsi_cert_index :: Set Certificate With Index#

Description#

This command is used to load/erase SSL (certificate and private keys). Certificates should be loaded before using TLS. This command should be sent before socket creation for TLS sockets. Certificates will be loaded in non-volatile memory of the module, so that loading certificate is required to be done only once.


Note!

  • This command is used for standalone Wi-Fi mode in case of loading certificates for multiple TLS sockets to flash.

  • This command should be sent only after opermode command.


Command Format#

at+rsi_cert_index =<cert_type>,<total_len>,<cert_index>,<key_pwd>,<certificate>

Parameters#

cert_type (1 byte)

total_len (2 bytes)

  • Certificate's total length in bytes.


Note!

  • For TLS certificates, the max length is 12280 bytes and for the Private Keys, it is 4088 bytes.

  • Recommended to use loading of single certificate method (wifiuser.pem)

  • Set BIT[27] in tcp_ip_feature_bit_map to load TLS certificate onto RAM. By default SSL certificates will be loaded onto flash.

  • Set BIT[31] in tcp_ip_feature_bit_map & BIT[29] in ext_tcp_ip_feature_bit_map to open 3 SSL Client sockets.


cert_index (1 byte)#

  • RS9116 can either load certificates onto RAM or FLASH, but not both at a time.

  • Module can hold two sets of TLS certificate into RAM. This field is used to provide the index of the certificates and possible values are 0 and 1.

  • Module can hold three sets of TLS certificate onto Flash. This field is used to provide the index of the certificates and possible values are 0, 1 and 2.

key_pwd (127 bytes)

  • Reserved.

certificate

  • This is the data of the actual certificate.

  • To erase a certificate, set total_len, key_pwd, certificate fields '0'. cert_type should be set to type of the certificate to erase as mentioned above. See the following example.

rsi_tcp :: Open a Socket#

Description#

This command is used to establish either a client or server socket.


Note!

  • A maximum of 10 sockets can be opened. Range of socket handles are between 1 to 10.

  • If 3 SSL sockets are opened then the remaining 7 could be any combinations of UDP and TCP sockets.

  • Module supports a maximum of 3 TLS sockets. These can be a combination of client and server sockets. If the HTTPS client is enabled then the user can open only 2 more TLS socket.

  • Module supports maximum of 8 non TLS Web sockets and 2 TLS Web sockets.

  • After MQTT connection, the maximum LTCP can support is only 9.

  • Each TLS/Web socket will occupy one TCP socket. TLS is supported only in Wi-Fi Client mode

  • If TLS is enabled, module uses same TLS version until module reboots.

  • If TLS is enabled, the module uses the same CA certificate for both TLS server socket and TLS Client socket until module reboots.

  • If the destination IP address is given as 0.0.0.0, the module will try to read the server IP and port number from the flash using port number passed in the command as the index number. The index number should be same as the index number value used while storing the server IP and port number. Index number range is 0 to 3. In this case, all other commands processed normally.

Case 7 is valid only when BIT(27) is not set in tcp_ip_feature_bit_map (module will use TLS certificates from FLASH).

If BIT(27) (TLS certificate on to the RAM feature) is set in tcp_ip_feature_bit_map, module only supports either TLS server socket or TLS Client socket.


Command Format#

UDP Client (IPv4)#

at+rsi_udp=<dest_ip_addr>,<dest_port>,<local_port>,<tos>,<socket_bitmap>,<vap_id>

Note! When using TCP sockets, it is recommended to set ext_tcp_ip_feature_bit_map[16] when configuring the operating mode using the command: rsi_opermode. If Destination IP address format is invalid and "destination port, source port and tos" are not in the range mentioned, then 0xFFF8 error will be indicated to Host.


Parameters#

dest_ip_addr

  • IP Address

dest_ip_addr (4 bytes)

  • IPv4 address if ip_version 4 is selected. Module ignores remaining 12 bytes in case of ip version 4.

local_port (2 bytes)

  • Local port number used by the module for the socket. Value ranges from [1024 .. 49151]

dest_port (2 bytes)

  • Destination port. Value ranges from [1024 .. 49151] EXCEPT 30000 which is reserved. Ignored when TCP server or listening UDP sockets are to be opened.

max_count (2 bytes)

  • Maximum number of clients which can be connected in case of LTCP.


Note! Module supports maximum two TLS sockets, so max_count should be less than or equal to 2 when a listening TCP server (LTCP) is used. If max_count is 2 then host can create only one TLS based LTCP socket with two clients support. This field max_count can be ignored if the socket type is other than 2 (TCP server).

Note!

  • The RS9116 does not include hardware support for GCM based ciphers. Use of these ciphers may impact performance since related crypto operations are performed by software.

  • SSL_NEW_CIPHERS should not be set alone. User is required to set the other corresponding bits in the bitmap along with SSL_NEW_CIPHERS to enable the cipher selection.

  • e.g. (SSL_NEW_CIPHERS | BIT_TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA256 | BIT_TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256)

  • Currently, HTTPS does not support GCM cipher selection in AT mode.

webs_resource_name (51 bytes)

  • The resource name to connect with at the websocket server. NULL is passed by default and the server assumes it as root. Examples:

    • / (default, the root of the server)

    • /chat

    • /sensor_pipe

  • A string of 50 characters plus null terminator is the maximum possible input to this variable.

webs_host_name (51 bytes)

  • Web socket hostname is the URL name of Websocket server to whom client will connect, by default NULL is passed and firmware sends it as localhost. Examples:

    • service.example.com

    • sensors.mydomain.com

  • A string of 50 characters plus null terminator is the maximum possible input to this variable.

tcp_retry_count (1 byte)

  • Configure TCP retransmission count.

socket_bitmap (1 byte)

  • Configure socket bit map

socket_bitmap

Functionality

Description

socket_bitmap[0]

Synchronous data read

Module sends data to host only after receiving data read request from host.

socket_bitmap[1]

TCP socket

To open a listening TCP socket and to accept client connection, host need to provide accept command.

socket_bitmap[2]

TCP ACK indication

When this bit is enabled module gives an TCP ACK indication (Frame type 0xAB) to host after receiving TCP ACK from remote peer.Host has to send next data packet to module only after receiving this TCP ACK indication

socket_bitmap[3]

If this bit is set module handles small sized received packets effectively.

Recommended to set for the sockets which receive small size packets

socket_bitmap[4]

TCP RX window size

When this bit is enabled, module opens socket with RX window size based on the value provided in rx_window_size field

socket_bitmap[5]

Enable certificate indexing

When socket_bitmap[5] = 1, certificate configured with cert_index is used, otherwise defaults certificate(s) are used.

rx_window_size (1 byte)

  • This field is used to configure the RX window size for the TCP socket. Possible values are 1 to 15 based on the availability of memory.

tcp_keepalive_timeout (2 bytes)

  • This field is used to configure TCP keep alive initial timeout in seconds.

vap_id

  • Possible values are 0 and 1.

    • 0 – Module will try to connect to scanned AP.

    • 1 – Module will create AP.

cert_index (1 byte)

  • Index for loading the certificate. Possible values: 0 and 1 for loading into RAM. Possible values: 0, 1, and 2 for loading into FLASH.


Note! Index-based certificate loading is valid only for storing certificates on to RAM or flash but not both at a time.


tcp_retry_transmit_timer (1 byte)

  • This field is used to configure TCP retry transmission timeout in seconds.

tcp_mss (2 bytes)

  • This field is used to configure the TCP Maximum segment size

Note!

  • <tcp_retry_transmit_timer> and <tcp_mss> parameters can only be used on RS9116 Rev 1.5 version.

use_fqdn_resolved_ip (1 byte)

  • 0 - Disable the use of fqdn resolved ip address.

  • 1 - Enable the use of fqdn resolved ip address.

Note!

  • If the user wishes to utilize the stored IP, they should input "0.0.0.0" as the ip_addr and set use_fqdn_resolved_ip to 1.

RSI_LTCP_CONNECT :: TCP Socket Connection Notification#

Description#

If a server TCP socket is opened in the module, the socket remains in listening state until the time the remote terminal opens and binds a corresponding client TCP socket.

rsi_cls :: Close Socket#

Description#

This command closes a TCP/LTCP/UDP/SSL/Web socket in the module.

Command Format#

at+rsi_cls=<socket_descriptor>,<port_number>

Parameters#

socket_descriptor (2 bytes)

  • Socket descriptor of the socket to be closed.

port_number (2 bytes)

  • This field is valid only for LTCP socket.

  • When this field is mentioned module closes all LTCP connections which are opened with provided port number.


Note!

  1. This field will be ignored in case of closing UDP/TCP client sockets.

  2. To use port based socket close to close all LTCP sockets, user has to set socket_handle as zero.

  3. For web socket: If close command is given socket will be closed without waiting for server to initiate web socket close.


  • In order get graceful closure, host has to issue data send command with an opcode of 0x8 and fin bit set and with an dummy data. This dummy data will be ignored by server side web socket. For example: at+rsi_snd=1,0,0,136.

  • In this case module sends web socket close frame to server. On receiving this frame, the server initiates a web socket close. After successful socket closes exchanges, module gives remote terminate indication to host.

Successful execution of command

ERROR <Error code>

Failure

where ...

socket_dsc (2 bytes)

  • Socket descriptor of the socket closed.

bytes_sent (4 bytes)

  • Number of bytes sent successfully on that socket.


Note! In the case of TCP socket, when a remote peer closes the socket connection, the module sends the AT+RSI_CLOSE<socket_handle><number of bytes sent> message to the Host. This is an asynchronous message sent from module to host and not the response of a specific command. Socket_handle is sent in 2 bytes, number of bytes sent is 4 bytes in hex. The least significant byte is returned first. AT+RSI_CLOSE is returned in uppercase and ASCII format


Possible error codes are 0x0021, 0x0025, 0x002C, 0xFF86, 0xBB35, 0xBB27, 0xBB42

Response#

Result Code

Description

OK <length> (or)

2 bytes length (2 bytes hex), length of data sent.

OK <socket id><length>

1 byte socket id, 2 bytes length (2 bytes hex), length of data sent.

ERROR <Error code>

Failure. On a failure while sending the data on the TCP socket, if the error code indicates "TCP connection closed", then the module closes the socket. Possible error codes are 0x0030, 0xFFFE, 0xFF7E, 0xFFF8, 0x003F, 0xFFF7.


Note!

  1. When enabled the socket bit map(2)(open socket), the send response gives 3bytes. User needs to consider the following for snd command if TCP_ACK(bit[2] is enabled. User will get an immediate OK <socket id ><length> response for snd command. This indicates the snd command transaction happened successfully at the host interface level. This doesn’t mean that the packet is successfully transmitted to the remote peer. Module responds with OK <socket id ><length> and takes the next snd command till it has buffers to buffer those packets.

  2. In case of SSL socket the response of send command gives length of data (Includes SSL data) on the TCP socket.

  3. The parameter send_data_buf contains the actual data not the ASCII representations of the data. User need to consider following for "snd" command in case of UART mode. User will get an immediate OK <length> response for snd command. This indicates the snd command transaction happened successfully at the host interface level. This doesn't mean that the packet is successfully transmitted to the remote peer. Module responds with OK <length> and takes the next snd command till it has buffers to buffer those packets. User need to take care that the data_len value that is given in snd command should be same as the number of bytes that are getting transmitted with snd command.

  4. In TCP/IP bypass mode, only <send_data_buf> parameter is valid and remaining parameters are dummy user can send dummy parameter as 0. After successfull joining in TCP/IP bypass mode, user can use this 'at command' to communicate further. For example, at+rsi_snd=0,0,0,0,<ARP broadcast>

Availability#

This command is available when the module is configured in Operating Mode 0, 2 and 6.


Note! Byte Stuffing is handled as described in the following text.

The '' character sequence (0x0D, 0x0A in hex) is used to indicate the termination of an AT command. If the actual data to be sent from Host comprises of characters in sequence, the host should replace this set of characters with (0xDB) and (0xDC). If (0xDB) itself is part of the data then (0xDB 0xDD ) has to be sent. If (0xDB 0xDC) itself is part of the data then (0xDB 0xDD 0xDC) has to be sent. If either 0xDD or 0xDC is not sent after 0xDB, then an error (-9) is sent.

Example 1. If 0x41 0x42 0x43 0x0D 0x0A is the actual data stream that needs to be sent then the command is

at+rsi_snd <hn> <sz=5> <Dip> <dest_port> <0x41> <0x42> <0x43> <0xDB> <0xDC> <0x0D> <0x0A>

Example 2. If 0x41 0x42 0x43 0x0D 0x0A 0x31 0x32 is the actual data stream that needs to be sent then the command is

at+rsi_snd <hn> <sz=7> <Dip> <dest_port> <0x41> <0x42> <0x43> <0xDB> <0xDC> <0x31> <0x32> <0x0D> <0x0A>

Example 3. If 0x41 0x42 0x43 0xDB 0x31 0x32 is the actual data stream that needs to be sent then the command is

Example 4. If 0x41 0x42 0x43 0xDB 0xDC 0x31 0x32 is the actual data that needs to be transmitted, then the command is

at+rsi_snd <hn> <sz=8> <Dip> <dest_port> <0x41> <0x42> <0x43> <0xDB><0xDD><0xDC> <0x31><0x32> <0x0D> <0x0A>

Example 5. If 0x41 0x42 0x43 0x0D 0x0A 0xDB 0x31 0x32 is the actual data that needs to be transmitted, then the command is

at+rsi_snd <hn> <sz=9> <Dip> <dest_port> <0x41> <0x42> <0x43> <0xDB><0xDC> <0xDB> <0xDD> <0x31> <0x32> <0x0D> <0x0A>

Example 6. If 0x41 0x42 0x43 0x0D 0x0A 0xDB 0xDC 0x31 0x32 is the actual data that needs to be transmitted, then the command is

rsi_read :: Read Data#

This section explains how to read socket data from the module to host.


Note! To use this feature, BIT(0) should be set in socket_bitmap (TCP/UDP open socket parameter) while opening a socket.


Description#

This command is used to request number of bytes received on given socket. Module will give requested number of bytes received on particular socket (synchronous) only if this command is given from host. If requested numbers of bytes are greater than bytes available on given socket module will return only available number of bytes to host. If no data available on given socket module will wait till data received on given socket to serve this command.

Command Format#

at+rsi_read=<socket_descriptor>,<no of bytes>,<timeout in ms>

Parameters#

socket_descriptor (1 byte)

  • Socket handle of the socket over which data is to be received.

no of bytes (4 bytes)

  • Length of the data that has to be read from the module.

timeout in milliseconds (2 bytes)

  • Read timeout in milliseconds to configure read data time out.

  • IP version of the data received.

    • 4 – for IPv4

recv_socket (2 bytes, hex)

  • Socket handle of the socket over which the data is received. The least significant byte is returned first. If Web socket has been enabled, upper byte holds the web socket info.Seventh bit indicates the FIN packet and bit 3:0 gives the opcode information from web socket header.

recv_buf_len (2 bytes, hex)

  • Number of bytes received.The least significant byte is sent first. For example, 900 bytes (0x0384) would be sent as <0x84> <0x03>

ap_address (16 bytes)

  • Source IP address. i.e IP address from which data is received.This field is not present in the message if the data is received over a TCP socket. Only first 4 bytes are filled rest 12 bytes are zero for IPv4 address.

src_port (2 bytes, hex)

  • Source port. i.e port number from which data is received. This field is not present in the message if the data is received over a TCP socket.

recv_data_buf

  • Actual received data stream. A maximum of 1472 bytes can be received in case of UDP and 1460 bytes in case of TCP, in this field.When the module sends data to the Host, byte stuffing is NOT done by the module. The size parameter should be used to know how many bytes of valid data is expected. |

rsi_bgscan :: Background Scan#

Description#

This command is used to scan for Wi-Fi Access Points when the module is in a connected state. The scan results are sorted in decreasing order of signal strength (RSSI value). The scanned access point with highest signal strength will be the first in the list.

Upon issuing this command, RS9116 WiSeConnect validates the channel bit map issued through the scan command, to ensure that background scan is performed only on those channels.

Command Format#

at+rsi_bgscan=<bgscan_enable>,<enable_instant_bgscan>,<bgscan_threshold>,<rssi_tolerance_threshold>,<bgscan_periodicity>,<active_scan_duration>,<passive_scan_duration>,<multi_probe>

Parameters#

bgscan_enable (2 bytes)

  • To enable/disable bgscan

    • 0 = Disable

    • 1 = Enable

enable_instant_bgscan (2 bytes)

  • If this is set to enable_instant_bgscan = 1 then the module sends probe requests immediately on air and bgscan results will be given to host.


Note!

  • If the host requires background scan results, then instant_bg_enable should be set to 1.


bgscan_threshold (2 bytes)

  • This is the threshold in dBm to trigger the bgscan. After bgscan_periodicity, if connected AP RSSI falls below this value then bgscan will be triggered.

rssi_tolerance_threshold (2 bytes)

  • This is the difference of the last RSSI of connected AP and current RSSI of connected AP. Here last RSSI is the RSSI calculated at the last beacon received and current RSSI is the RSSI calculated at current beacon received.

  • If this difference is more than rssi_tolerance_threshold then bgscan will be triggered irrespective of periodicity.

bgscan_periodicity (2 bytes)

  • This is time period in seconds to trigger bgscan if RSSI of connected AP is above the given bgscan_threshold (assuming RSSI is a positive value) .

active_scan_duration (2 bytes)

  • This is active scan duration (in milliseconds) per channel.

passive_scan_duration (2 bytes)

  • This is passive scan duration (in milliseconds) per DFS channel in the 5 GHz band.

multi_probe (1 byte)

  • If set to 1 the module sends two probe requests, one with specific SSID provided during join command and other with NULL SSID (to scan all access points). If not set, one probe request with connected SSID is sent.


Note!

  • Channel to scan in background scan is taken from Channel bit maps of scan command , e.g. channel_bit_map_2_4 and channel_bit_map_5.

  • active_scan_duration should be less than DTIM period to avoid multicast packet loss.

rsi_httpget :: HTTP Get#

Description#

This command is used to transmit HTTP GET request from the module to a remote HTTP server. A subsequent HTTP GET request can be issued only after receiving the response of the previously issued HTTP GET request. Module acts as a HTTP client when this command is issued. This command should only be used after IP configuration is complete.

Command Format#

Format for IPv4

at+rsi_httpget=<https_enable>,<http_port>,<user_name>,<password>,<host_name>,<ip_address>,<url>,<extended_header>

Parameters#

https_enable

  • Set BIT[0] to enable HTTPS.

  • Set BIT[1] to enable NULL delimiter for HTTP buffer instead of comma.

  • Set BIT[2] to use SSL TLS 1.0 version if HTTPS is enabled.

  • Set BIT[3] to use SSL TLS 1.2 version if HTTPS is enabled.

  • Set BIT[4] to use SSL TLS 1.1 version if HTTPS is enabled.

  • Set BIT[5] to enable HTTP_POST data feature

  • Set BIT[6] to enable HTTP version 1.1.

  • Set BIT[7] to enable user defined http_content type in Flags.


Note! If SSL/TLS is enabled by default, it will use TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.2. BIT(2) and BIT(3) are valid only when HTTPS is enabled.


http_port

  • HTTP server port number, defaults to port 80

user_name

  • The username for HTTP/HTTPS server authentication. Default username is admin.

password

  • The password for HTTP/HTTPS server authentication. Default password is admin.

host_name

  • Host name of the HTTP/HTTPS server.

ip_address

  • IP address of HTTP/HTTPS server.

url

  • Requested file path in the URL.


Note!

  • The host name should not be part of the requested URL. This field should include only the path to the requested file.

  • Example : /index.html


extended_header (1 byte)

  • The purpose of this is to append user configurable header fields to the default HTTP/HTTPS header. To write extended header, user must use 'Data stuffing' mentioned separately in this document as well mentioning here also in context of extended header. The extended header can have multiple header fields each ended by \r\n (0xD 0xA) but \r\n is the delimiter for an AT command so use data stuffing and replace all (0xD 0xA) by 0xDB 0xDC besides delimiter(). See the example given below.

  • The default http header contains the following:

    • Content Type. Describes about the type of the file which user want to send like html, txt, gif, etc.

    • Content Length. Tells about the length of the text which user is using.

  • The above mentioned fields are created in the header by the firmware.


Note!

  • Maximum supported length for user_name, password together is 278 bytes..

  • Maximum supported length for Buffer is (872-(length of User_name+length of Password)) bytes excluding delimiters.

  • If username, password, hostname and extended http headers are not required, user should send empty string separated by delimiter.

  • If content of any field contains a comma then NULL delimiter should be used.

  • Host needs to do byte stuffing in extended header field. Please refer the note about data stuffing.


Response#

Module may give http response in multiple chunks for a single HTTP GET request.

Result Code

Description

AT+RSI_HTTPRSP=<more><status_code><offset><data_len><data>

After the module sends out the HTTP GET request to the remote server, it may take some time for the response to come back. The response from the remote server is sent out to the Host from the module in the following form: AT+RSI_HTTPRSP=<more><status_code><offset><data_len><data>. The string AT+RSI_HTTPRSP is in uppercase ASCII.

ERROR <Error_code>

Failure

where ...

more (2 bytes)

  • This indicates whether more HTTP data for the HTTP GET request is pending or not.

    • 0 – More data is pending. Further interrupts may be raised by the module till all the data is transferred to the Host.

    • 1 – End of HTTP data.

status_code (2 bytes)

  • Provided the HTTP status code as received in the response packet such as 200, 201, 404 etc. a status_code equal to 0 indicates that there was no HTTP header in the received packet, probably a continuation of the frame body received in the previous chunk.

offset (4 bytes)

  • Reserved.

data_len (4 bytes)

  • data length in current chunk.

Data (maximum 1400 bytes)

  • Actual http data.

rsi_httppost :: HTTP Post#

Description#

This command is used to transmit a HTTP POST request to a remote HTTP server.

A subsequent HTTP POST request can be issued only the response to a previously issued HTTP POST request is received. Module acts as a HTTP client when this command is issued.

Use rsi_httppost_data to send multiple chunks (max size 900 byte) of data.

Command Format#

at+rsi_httppost=<https_enable>,<http_port>,<user_name>,<password>,<host_name>,<ip_address>,<url>,<extended_header>,<data/data_length>

Parameters#

https_enable

  • Set BIT[0] to enable HTTPS.

  • Set BIT[1] to enable NULL delimiter for HTTP buffer instead of comma.

  • Set BIT[2] to use SSL TLS 1.0 version if HTTPS is enabled.

  • Set BIT[3] to use SSL TLS 1.2 version if HTTPS is enabled.

  • Set BIT[4] to use SSL TLS 1.1 version if HTTPS is enabled.

  • Set BIT[5] to enable HTTP_POST data feature

  • Set BIT[6] to enable HTTP version 1.1.

  • Set BIT[7] to enable user defined http_content type in Flags

http_port

  • HTTP server port number, defaults to port 80

user_name

  • The username for HTTP/HTTPS server authentication. Default username is username.

password

  • The password for HTTP/HTTPS server authentication. Default password is admin.

host_name

  • Host name of the HTTP/HTTPS server.

ip_address

  • IP address of HTTP/HTTPS server.

url

  • Requested URL.

extended_header (1 byte)

  • The purpose of this is to append user configurable header fields to the default HTTP/HTTPS header. To write extended header, user must use 'Data stuffing' mentioned separately in this document as well mentioning here also in context of extended header. extended header can have multiple header fields each ended by \r\n (0xD 0xA) but \r\n is the delimiter for an AT command so use data stuffing and replace all (0xD 0xA) by 0xDB 0xDC besides delimiter(). See the example given below.

  • The default http header contains the following:

    • Content Type : Describes about the type of the file which user want to send like html,txt,gif etc.

    • Content Length : Tells about the length of the text which user is using.

  • The abovementioned fields are created in the header by the firmware.

data/data_length

  • Post data to be sent / total length of the http data.


Note!

  • When BIT[6] is enabled in https_enable feature bitmap, hostname is mandatory (to support HTTP version 1.1).

  • When BIT[5] is enabled in https_enable feature bitmap, instead of data, the host need to give total HTTP data length.

  • Maximum supported length for user_name, password together is 278 bytes.

  • Maximum supported length for buffer is (872-(length of user_name + length of password)) bytes excluding delimiters.

  • If username, password, hostname and extended http headers are not required, user should send empty string separated by delimiter.

  • If content of any field contains comma then NULL delimiter should be used.


Example 1#

  • https_enable = 0

  • http_port = 80

  • Username = username

  • password = password

  • host_name = www.google.com

  • ip_address = 192.168.40.50

  • url = /index.html

  • extended_header = ContentType: htmlÛÜ

  • data = <data>

Example 2#

Set BIT[5] in https_enable field.

  • https_enable = 0x20

  • http_port = 80

  • Username = username

  • password = password

  • host_name = posttestserver.com

  • ip_address = 64.90.48.15

  • url = /post.php

  • extended_header = ContentType: htmlÛÜ

  • data = 1800


Note! As per httppost_data, maximun bytes of data length is 1400 only. As per above example, sending data length as 1800 bytes but will post the data chunk by chunk i.e. 1400 bytes will be sent followed by the remaining 400 bytes.

rsi_webpage :: Write Static Webpage#

RS9116W allows two kinds of webpages to be stored in flash: static and dynamic. Static pages allow plain html, css and JavaScript; whereas dynamic pages allow JSON data to be associated with the static webpages. This JSON data can be stored, retrieved and updated independently. The webpages can fetch this data and dynamically fill form fields. These fields can be modified from the host side or the browser.

The host can store up to 10 webpages, each up to 4K in size. The size of a page can exceed the 4K limitation, but this will result in lesser number of files that can be stored. For example, user could store one 12K file, and seven 4K files. Similarly, there can be 10 JSON data objects with each NOT exceeding 512 bytes in any circumstances. These objects can only be stored if they have an associated webpage.

Description#

This command is used to load a static webpage, to store a static webpage and to overwrite an existing static webpage. This command should be issued before join command.

If webpage total length is more than MAX_WEBPAGE_SEND_SIZE, then host has to send webpage in multiple chunks.

Command Format#

at+rsi_webpage=<filename>,<total_len>,<current_len>,<has_json_data>,<webpage>

Parameters#

filename (24 bytes)

  • Name of the file to load the webpage.

*total_len (2 bytes)

  • Total length of the webpage

current_len (2 bytes)

  • Length of the current webpage chunk has_json_data

has_json_data (1 byte)

  • 0 - if no associated data. In this case webpage is static page.

  • 1 - if file has associated json data

webpage (1024 bytes)

  • The HTML content chunk.

Possible error codes are 0x0021, 0x0015, 0x0025, 0x00C1, 0x00C2, 0x00C3 , 0x00C5, 0x00C6, 0x00C8

Availability#

This command is available when the module is configured in Operating Mode 0, 2 and 6.

Example#

The host can also overwrite an existing page, this is achieved by issuing this same command with the same filename. No explicit erase is required. However the size of the new file cannot exceed the size of the old file rounded up to the 4K chunk boundary. Precisely, if an old file used 2 chunks of 4K i.e. up to 8K in size, then the new file can't exceed 8K in size. To overcome this limitation, the host should erase the existing file and then write a new file which can exceed the size of the old file provided the device has enough space available.

Note!

  • The UNII-3 band(Rule No:5) specified in the Europe domain regulation table below is not supported in RS9116 1.3 silicon(M7DB6) Dual Band modules.

  • In dual band mode, if the country element is extracted from a beacon in 2.4GHz band and 5GHz band are not matching, an error is thrown and region is set to US

  • Refer to the following tables for the region supported and rules followed by the module

  • Although the transmit power levels w.r.t to region are greater than 20dBm, the module supports maximum Tx power output of 18dBm.

  • For RS9116AC0 and RS9116AC1 module as STA :-

    • Region configuration from user is not allowed.

    • In 2.4GHz, USA is configuerd as default country domain and in addition to this, channels 12 and 13 are passively scanned.

    • Country inforamtion is updated as per connecting AP's beacon before authentication.

    • Upon disconnection with the AP, STA will switch to USA domain along with channels 12 and 13 are passively scanned.

    • While doing passive scan (channel 12 and 13) if any beacon is found in that channel STA will switch to active scan.

    • If there is no country IE in the beacon of the AP to which STA is going to connect, STA will switch to USA/EU country based on the channel in which the AP exists. For example if the AP in channel between 1 to 11, STA will configure to USA else if the current channel number is 12 or 13 STA will be configured to EU.

rsi_trans_mode_params :: Transparent Mode Command#

Description#

In transparent mode, the module acts as a virtual serial line. Once the module enters into the transparent mode, it will take raw data (byte stream) from a host on a serial port and forward it to the remote device using an internal TCP/IP stack. Similarly, data received from remote devices passed to the host (by discarding TCP/IP protocol-specific header) through a serial line. In transparent mode, the module does not process AT commands. This command is used to Enter/Start transparent mode, parameters for transparent mode are to be provided in this command. On reception of this command, the module tries to start transparent mode and replies with AT+RSI_TMODE message with status. This command is only valid when used with the UART interface.

rsi_httpota :: HTTP OTAF#

Description#

This command is used to transmit HTTP OTAF request from the module (which acts as a HTTP client) to a remote HTTP server. Any subsequent HTTP OTAF requests can only be issued after receiving the response of the previously issued HTTP OTAF request. After a new firmware file is successfully downloaded, teh module should be reset to load the newly downloaded firmware.

Command Format#

at+rsi_httpota=<https_enable>,<http_port>,<username>,<password>,<host_name>,<address>,<url>,<extended_header>

Parameters#

https_enable

  • https_enable[0] enables HTTPS.

  • https_enable[1] enables NULL delimiter for HTTP buffer instead of comma.

  • https_enable[2] enables SSL TLS 1.0 version if HTTPS is enabled.

  • https_enable[3] enables SSL TLS 1.2 version if HTTPS is enabled.

  • https_enable[4] enables SSL TLS 1.1 version if HTTPS is enabled.

  • https_enable[5] enables http_post data feature

  • https_enable[6] enables HTTP version 1.1

  • https_enable[7] enables user defined http_content type in flags.


Note! If SSL is enabled, SSL TLS v1.0 and TLS v1.2 will be used. BIT(2) and BIT(3) are valid only when HTTPS is enabled.


http_port

  • HTTP server port number. If this is not mentioned default port number 80 will be used.

username

  • user_name for HTTP/HTTPS server authentication. Default user name is 'admin'.

password

  • password for HTTP/HTTPS server authentication. Default password is 'admin'.

host_name

  • Host name of the HTTP/HTTPS server.

ip_address

  • IPv4/IPv6 address of HTTP/HTTPS server.

url

  • requested URL.

extended_header

The extended header field provides a way to append user configurable header fields to the default HTTP/HTTPS header. To write extended header, user must use 'Data stuffing' mentioned separately and here in context of extended header. The extended header can have multiple header fields each ended by (0xD 0xA) but here our delimiter for whole 'at' command so use data stuffing and replace all (0xD 0xA) by 0xDB 0xDC besides delimiter(). Follow the example given below.

Default http header contains the following:

  • Content Type : Describes the type of file being sent e.g. HTML, JSON, GIF, etc.

  • Content Length : Configures the length of the text provided.

The abovementioned fields are created in the header by the firmware.


Note!

  • Maximum supported length for (username, password) together is 278 bytes.

  • Maximum supported length for buffer is (872-(length of user_name+length of password)) bytes excluding delimiters.

  • If username, password, `hostname and extended http headers are not required, user should send empty string separated by delimiter.

  • If content of any field contains a comma, then the <NULL> delimiter should be used.


Response#

The device may give HTTP response in multiple chunks for a single HTTP OTAF request.
