I use a easyRF evaluation kit with a BG96 to test the FTM mode of the device.
But the BG 96 dous not go into FTM.
see: QCOM:
[2021-04-02_22:58:52:765]AT+QRFTESTMODE=?
[2021-04-02_22:58:52:765]+QRFTESTMODE: (0,1)

What is going wrong? I can not get further…

Pls test this fuction with Main UART ， Instead of Usb ， since if you are connecting usb ， RNDIS will be enabled . it will prevent the moudle enter FTM mode.

Hi, I, must check this against the evaluation board.
Do I need to update the BG96 firmware

I use the terminal programs: QCOM and QNavigator
