resetIOT_HW takes too much time

[fviard]

Hi, I have a RF Explorer 3G+ IoT board to that i'm evaluating to be use with the python sdk.

Reset the hardware (ResetIOT_HW) takes a little bit too long because the code is like this:

` import RPi.GPIO as GPIO

        #print("RPi info: " + str(GPIO.RPI_INFO)) #information about your RPi:
        #print("RPi.GPio version: " + GPIO.VERSION) #version of RPi.GPIO:
        GPIO.setwarnings(False)
        GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BOARD)    #refer to the pin numbers on the P1 header of the Raspberry Pi board
        GPIO.setup(12, GPIO.OUT)    #set /reset (pin 12) to output 
        GPIO.output(12, False)      #set /reset (pin 12) to LOW
        GPIO.setup(21, GPIO.OUT)    #set GPIO2 (pin 21) to output
        GPIO.output(21, bMode)      #set GPIO2 (pin 21) to HIGH (for 500Kbps)
        time.sleep(0.1)             #wait 100ms
        GPIO.output(12, True)       #set /reset to HIGH
        time.sleep(2.5)             #wait 2.5sec
        GPIO.setup(21, GPIO.IN)     #set GPIO2 to input
        GPIO.cleanup()              #clean up GPIO channels 

` Its looks like that you are waiting 2.5s after the reset for the device to be ready.

2s is a very long time. So, I was wondering if it is really needed and if we can't reduce that delay?

Thank you

Hi, yes this is expected and required time for the firmware to fully initialize all internal electronics.
