Hello Francis Ryan P.


1.This tool is installed on my own old computer (I work from home)

It was forwarded to me by my R&D department 4 years ago. Unfortunately, the staff member who contacted me for this program in the past years left and I found out that he is no longer alive and that they could not find the new version or the Ant.exe and (HwDetection) files containing the new hardware parameters.


2.Attached is a screenshot of the error message (image attached)

C:\ANT>ANT.exe -QueryMCC

ANT tool, Version 22.2000.0.0-05160
(C) 2007-2020 Intel company / OEM Tools group. All rights reserved.


Detected hardware: ??? (cannot find hardware information;
but finds installed hardware when crf_id=“0x0f” in any HwDetection file)

Detected hardware: Intel(R) Wi-Fi 7 BE200 320MHz

Error: The read command fails with the following condition: , 256

error with summary giving the message; exe and HwDetection “Intel(R) Wi-Fi 7 BE200, 201,202 does not contain device information.

<Device name="GALE2" crf_id="0x0F" rf_type="0x0F08" />     (BE200 Gale peak 2)
<Device name="MISTY2"   crf_id="0x11" rf_type="0x0F08" />  (BE202 Misty peak2)
<Device name="FILMORE2" crf_id="0x10" rf_type="0x0F08" />  (BE201 Fillmore peak2)

 


3.The need for this tool is for my work.

Functional testing definition and user acceptance, functional, performance and stress testing, beta and delta testing, testing that examines potential user input at different stages throughout the software lifecycle. A company whose name I cannot share due to my contract. I am committed to supporting technological, agile development, creating more actionable feedback and maximizing product success and helping this company build high quality products that customers will love.

 

4.Attached is a log file of your system.

(I mentioned it in previous posts. I guess you haven't looked at the pictures in the previous attachment, I would appreciate it if you could check them out. )

I got error message while using -ant_isolation command in ANT tool. Could you help to check the BE200 module can support the command or not?

Hi GP_Yu;

obviously there is no "GALE" support in the old version. i would like to help. (Version 22.2000.0.0-05160
(C) 2007-2020 Intel corporation / OEM)

 

you have the parameter -->"" Detected hardware: Device Identified by crf_id: 0x0f ""  !!!  interesting why you don't have such a hardware name;

Detected hardware: Intel(R) Wi-Fi 7 BE200 320MHz          (should be)

HwDetection.xml can you review the file Do you have this parameter?

"<Device name="GALE" crf_id="0x0f" rf_type="0x0F08" /> " 

 

 

I don't have your new "intel ant tool version for a long time. can you please share this new version 2024.

("ANT tool, Version ANT.01908.23.70.0
(C) 2007-2024 Intel corporation / OEM Tools group. All rights reserved." )

 

(*Adapters: WiFi-7  BE200 320MHz  , *Driver version: 23.70.0.6  )

we have the same hardware and driver.

 

ant tool no installation required; 

"Ant.exe,  

Singletons.dll

HwDetection.xml,  

AppTemplate.xml, 

, TestCatalog.xml " As you know, the existence of their files is sufficient. 

I would be grateful if you could share these files.

NART

Best regards
