| AR1688 FAQ |
| | |
| What AR1688 device can I buy? |
| Typical devices based on AR1688: GF302 IP phone, GP1266 and GP1260 IP phones, YWH201 IP phone. You can also try our AR168M VoIP module and AR168R RoIP module. |

| When I start AR168M in safe mode (connect GPIO7 to GND), then AR168M reply ping request in address 192.168.1.200 and mac address (00-18-1F-00-00-00), but i can't enter it's configurations in any web browser or even with your PalmTool? When I connect rs232 port to it's usart (convert ttl level to rs232 level use max232), I can't reveive any things? |
| Please do not use PalmTool, PalmTool is not for AR1688 at all. Web interface is not available in safe mode. UART interface is not available in safe mode neither. |
| | |
| How can I know the IP address of AR168M running in normal mode? |
| There is a Manager.exe located in sdcc\bin, run it, click on "Start Debug" button before you power up AR168M module, so you can see the IP address of it in the debug window. |
| | |
| What is the voltage refrence in the AR168M (VREFI), and what part number can we use to replace the xpc6606p152? |
| The VREFI voltage is 1.5V with accuracy of 2%. The Rating current is 500mA. You can try find the replacement with these parameters. |
| | |
| I am using the AR168M gerber file on your website, my pcb-manufacterer asks me what the layer stack order is from top to bottom for the module? |
| The layer stack order of the module is: |
 |

| How to compile AR1688 API with Linux? |
| You can NOT do it unless with extra work. |
| | |
| I'm unable to compile the new 0.52 SW in Win XP the following error appear (command 'mk gp1266 sip us'): Error: C:\SDCC\BIN\hex2bin main.bin -f0 -a0 -x6 -b32768 -e57344 main.ihx process_begin: CreateProcess(C:\SDCC\BIN\hex2bin.exe, C:\SDCC\BIN\hex2bin main.bin -f0 -a0 -x6 -b32768 -e57344 main.ihx, ...) failed. |
| Since 0.52, tools (like hex2bin) are compiled with VC2008, you need to install the VC2008 distribution package from Microsoft. |
| | |
| How to change MAC address? |
| It is possible if you follow the steps. If the MAC address does not "match", all function keys and some voice functions will not work correctly, but upgrade functions will work as usual. |
| | |
| Can I add short message function? |
| Our software can display short message following standard SIP (RFC 2438) and IAX2 protocols, you need to add message input and send out part. |
| | |
| In web page, I used "Upgrade"->"Settings" to load an update binary file instead of "Firmware", now the settings is corrupted and restore factory default can not work, what can I do now? |
| In this case, factory default settings and phone settings are all corrupted by the update binary file. You can enter safe mode, use software API sdcc\bin\getopt.bat and getopt.bat to restore corrupted settings. |
| | |
| I can not find mkweb.bat and mkweball.bat mentioned in the development guide? |
| The pdf development guide is out of date, we simplized the web build steps, just ignore the steps related with those 2 files. |
| | |
| I really need to implement a simple command parser which listening a tcp port to receive remote command. Do you have any sample codes or programming guide for it? |
| Actually we do not encourage user to use more tcp on AR1688 besides web configuration. Better reconstruct your design by using UDP instead of TCP. You can download 0.50 software API, there is a DemoTcp.c for simple TCP demo, which was removed in 0.52. |
