Hi all,
I am testing the standard DWM3001CDK board and The NI App provided is not showing the direction and elevation …
Some idea?

Hi Antonio,

Did you update the version of the firmware on the DWM3001CDK to the latest package? Also, it will be good if you can check the log using RTT Viewer.

Which iPhone and iOS version are you using?

Hi
I have updated the firmware as described in docs: DWM3001CDK-QANI-FreeRTOS_full_QNI_3_0_0.hex , it’s correct?

my phone is a 16 pro max - ios 18.3.1

this is an extract from RTT Viewer log:

Hi @Antonio !

if I powerup two devices at some point the direction start to work … ??? but just once )))

It seems more like a bug on the iOS app.

my phone is a 16 pro max - ios 18.3.1

Direction and elevation are not available on iPhone 14 or newer, instead they rely on camera assistance to estimate the AoA, and elevation is reported as something like “above”, “same level” or “bellow”.

I solvedf for ios16 it’s necessary make the movement showed in the demo video, than works
but only direction, elevation it’s still missed
