Older Explore-NFC 14 18 sn EM-400503

Hi Wilnijv,

There are no different versions of the EXPLORE-NFC available.

If you are using the latest versions of each components, everything should be fine.

What output are you getting and what are you expecting? Could you please give some examples?

Michael

Hello

Its clear there is no HW difficult between older and newer types.

On the RBpi 1B I has installed the SW 282710 loaded 22-11-2014. installed about AN11480 from release 1.

On this moment I have installed on my RBpi 2B the SW 282711 last release about the instruction AN11480 rev.2.3 dd 20150407, whit out problems.

But when run the program with <explorenfc-basic> only tag found no tag ID.

Argument –k gives Waiting for tag or divice…..

On name_lost( ) : :org.neardal

Tag fond.

On the Pi1 I have output:

mode : poll

 uid : 0410C2620E2981

It looks like you are using an outdated version of the software. Please use the most recent version of each component. You can download it from [1].

SW282714 should contain everything you need.

I have try newer software package, but the result is the same.

I have concluded that the I2C give different results by testing.

I have change the raspi-config file, but it’s have no results.

Is my Raspberry pi2 board broken?

Greetings Wilnijv

Hi Wilnijv,

The EXPLORE-NFC is using SPI by default.

Did you also enable the SPI interface in raspi-config?

Cheers,

Michael

Hello Michael,

All removed, and new installation, and its works,

Thanks Wilnijv

Great, thanks for telling us.

Michael

Hello  Michael,

I have installed explorenfc-basic, and I have seen that there a different between

the manual AN11480 Rev. 2.4 – 7 September 2015 and the installed programs.

Libneardal0_0.14.2.1 and libwiringpi2-2.25-1 and neard-explorenfc_0.8-1.

Running explorenfc-basic-h

Description only possible options –d, -k, -a, -h  and not the options –w, -t, -l, -c

The last option give also a error.

Greetings wilnijv

Wilnijv, you are right. Thanks for the note.

I already triggered an update for the software. It will appear in the next days on this page:
