In SoC mode, this API only sends commands from the M4 core to the TA core.

  • Pre-conditions:

Returns

Note

  • The output_len and output_data parameters are currently unused and reserved for future use.

  • This API is only applicable in SoC mode.

    • Currently, only SL_SI91X_ENABLE_XTAL is supported for sub_cmd_type.

    • SL_SI91X_ENABLE_XTAL is of uint8_t datatype and user can pass 1 to enable and 0 to disable it.

    • For alarm based sleep wakeup applications, SL_SI91X_ENABLE_XTAL is used to enable/disable the XTAL.

sl_si91x_configure_timeout#

sl_status_t sl_si91x_configure_timeout (sl_si91x_timeout_type_t timeout_type, uint16_t timeout_value)

Sets different timeouts given by sl_si91x_timeout_type_t for the Si91x device.

Parameters
[in]timeout_type

Identifies which timeout type to set. Possible values are defined in sl_si91x_timeout_type_t.

[in]timeout_value

The timeout value to set. The time resolution depends on the timeout_type.

This API configures various timeout settings such as authentication, association, channel active scan, channel passive scan timeout, and keep-alive timeout for the module.
The timeout type determines the specific timeout being set, and the timeout value specifies the duration.

Returns

Note

    • After a successful IP configuration, Gratuitous ARP is used as the periodic WLAN Keep-Alive packet with the configured keep_alive_timeout interval.

    • If there is no IP configuration, NULL Data Packets are used as the WLAN Keep-Alive packet.

    • As an alternative, users can use sl_si91x_set_timeout to set all timeouts before calling sl_wifi_init().

sl_si91x_set_timeout#

void sl_si91x_set_timeout (const sl_si91x_timeout_t * timeout_config)

Sets different module timeouts in a single call for the Si91X device.

Parameters
[in]timeout_config

Timeout configuration of type sl_si91x_timeout_t.

This API sets all the timeout configurations in a single call. It includes settings for the active channel scan timeout, authentication association timeout, and keep-alive timeout for the module.

Note

    • This API should ONLY be called before sl_wifi_init.

    • Repeated calls to this API will overwrite the timeout values stored in the SDK and will be applied on the next call to sl_wifi_init.

    • As an alternative, users can set individual timeouts using sl_si91x_configure_timeout() after calling sl_wifi_init().
