Manual Pages  — IWMBTFW

The iwmbtfw utility downloads the specified firmware file to the specified ugen(4) device.

This utility will only work with Intel Wireless 7260/8260/8265 chip based Bluetooth USB devices and some of their successors. The identification is currently based on USB vendor ID/product ID pair. The vendor ID should be 0x8087 ( USB_VENDOR_INTEL2) and the product ID should be one of the supported devices.

Firmware files are available in the comms/iwmbt-firmware port.

The iwmbtfw utility will query the device to determine which firmware image and board configuration to load in at runtime.

The options are as follows:

-D
	Enable verbose debugging.
-d device_name
	Specify ugen(4) device name.
-I
	Enable informational debugging.
-f firmware_path
	Specify the directory containing the firmware files to search and upload.
-h
	Display usage message and exit.
