6.2 ODIN-W2 firmware update

Users have a choice to run two distinct firmware variants in ODIN-W2. By factory default the ODIN-
W2 on a C099-F9P runs a dedicated application firmware.

Mbed OS 3 application firmware

The latest released binary is available via the u-blox git-hub repository:
https://github.com/u-blox/ublox-C099_F9P-mbed-3
Firmware update on ODIN-W2 is possible by the following tool set:
•
Through ODIN-W2 UART1 by using stm32flash.exe
It is recommended to download the stm32flash.exe command line tool from STM website or from
Sourceforge:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/stm32flash/
Prior to firmware upload, the ODIN-W2 must be started in safe boot mode. Proceed by placing a safe
boot jumper and reboot C099-F9P. Location of the safe boot pin header and the reset button is
depicted in Figure 6. To confirm the ODIN-W2 started in safe boot mode the ODIN-W2 activity LED
remains off. Please use the following command structure in Power Shell or Command Prompt to start
FW upload:
./stm32flash.exe -b 115200 -w <c099mbed3.bin> -S 0x8000000 COM<port number>
A successful FW upload is confirmed by removing the safe boot jumper and restarting the device.
The ODIN-W2 activity LED should lit up.

Connectivity software

In order to utilize the standard ODIN-W2 connectivity stack a firmware update is required. Latest u-
blox connectivity software and documentation is available via u-blox.com:
https://www.u-blox.com/en/product/odin-w2-series
Software upload procedure consists of two consecutive phases. Firstly, a bootloader is required to be
uploaded:
./stm32flash.exe -b 115200 -w <ODIN-W2-BOOT.bin> -S 0x8000000 COM<port number>
After a succesful bootloader upload, the actual connectivity software shall be uploaded while
incrementing the memory index as shown below
./stm32flash.exe -b 115200 -w <ODIN-W26X-SW.bin> -S 0x8010000 COM<port number>
Instructions of connectivity configurations of ODIN-W2 running the Connectivity SW are available in
C099-F9P User Guide [5].
