PYB and CC3000

Post by warner83 » Thu Apr 23, 2015 1:05 pm

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to connect my pyb to the CC3000 from adafruit (v1.1).

After setting up everything I always got the same error after initialization:
nic = network.CC3K(pyb.SPI(2), pyb.Pin.board.Y5, pyb.Pin.board.Y4, pyb.Pin.board.Y3)

OSError: failed to init CC3000 module

I've double checked the wiring and tested with multiple version!

I checked in the forum for the same problem, but suggestion and advices are confusing!

Any suggestion?

Thank you!!

Carlo

I have gotten the c3000 to initialize and have had it work for brief periods but have not been able to get it to work consistently. I have tried two different pyboards with two different different adafruit cc3000 breakout boards (https://www.adafruit.com/products/1469). Not sure what the issue is and whether there is some approach that will consistently work. Another thread has mentioned the WiPy board (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wi ... o-the-next) incorporating the CC3200 although would love to have a wifi solution before that is available.

I had the same 'failed to init CC3000 module' error after a soft reset. The solution was to power the board down completely and reboot. That worked for me. The CC3000 connected to my network, got an ip address but as soon I tried to open sockets OS error codes appeared. So far I haven't had success exchanging data. I'm working with the STM32F4Discovery board.
