# Application Demo
This article will detail how to update the AT application firmware; how to implement the working mode switching; how to open the different working modes of the module's WiFi function; and how to establish a Socket connection and communication.
#1.AT firmware update by serial port
Update method: Enter Bootloader mode, enter command 1 and download through the user serial port.
#1) Hardware preperation
First, you need to have a hardware environment in which the module can run normally. It can be any of the following：
MiCOKit or MXKit-xxxx development board，among them：
- The current MiCOKit support module includes：EMW3165，3166，3239，3031，3081。
- MXKit support module includes：EMW3080，3060，110，3090，3290。
Or the minimum working circuit of your own EMWxxx module (including at least: power, serial port, and reset button functions. If you need to burn through the serial port, you need to solve the boot mode status button: BOOT, Status two).
The connection diagram and port are as follows：
- (1）MiCOKit-xxx，
The ports in Device Manager are as follows：
- (2）If it is MXKit-xxx, the user serial port and the debug serial port are combined. (Note: the short connector of RXD and TXD should be plugged in.)
The ports in Device Manager are as follows：
Note: To use the Arduino user serial port of the MXKit development board, you need to unplug the short connector of RXD and TXD, and need to connect ttl to usb small board. For specific usage and port number display, please refer to MiCOKit.
#2) Software preparation
- (1) Corresponds to the AT firmware of the WiFi module, for example: EMW3xxx_0000.xxxx.xxxx_ota.bin.
- (2) Firmware download software: SecureCRT (opens new window).
- (3) AT command serial debugging software: Gersey bonfire (opens new window).
- (4)) Here is a Geshe Bonfire bsp project file that integrates the basic AT command: 📎at_v2.0_cmd.bsp.zipcan be downloaded directly.
- (5) Simultaneously provide FOG cloud connection via MQTT protocol. Related AT instruction: 📎at_cmd_fog_mqtt.bsp.zip. And AWS Amazon Cloud 📎at_cmd_aws_mqtt.bsp.zip.
- (6) Each demo sample instruction set bsp project in this document can be downloaded: 📎at_all_demo.bsp.zip
#3) Update step
#(1) Connecting serial port
Connect the debug serial port of the development board and the user serial port to the PC through the microusb line or ttl to the usb board.
In the PC's Control Panel - Device Manager finds the COM port number, opens secureCRT, creates the connection, and configures it as follows:
#(2) Enter Bootloader mode
BOOT pin pulls low 0, STATUS pin pulls high 1, RESET pulls low, restarts the module, serial output log as shown below：
#（3）Download firmware
Input：1，Update application. Return as shown below：

After the download is successful, the output is as follows。
Can enter QC mode, user serial port view burning firmware version result：
Method to entry QC mode :
- One is BOOT pin to pull low, STATUS is low, reset, baud rate：921600bps。 (such as EMW3060,3165,3166,3239,3031, etc.)
- One is the user serial port input #, Reset, baud rate：921600bps。（such as: EMW3080）
QC log as below：
At this time, the BOOT pin can be pulled high, the STATUS pin is pulled high, and then reset to enter the normal working mode, that is, the AT command mode or the data transparent transmission mode.
#2.Working mode switching
#1) AT command mode to transparent mode
In the AT command mode, the user serial input command: AT+CIPSENDRAW., return: OK, you can exit the AT command mode and enter the data transparent transmission mode.

#10.MQTT protocol communication use case
#1) Implementing mqtt communication with Qingke Fog Cloud
The following explains how to implement MQTT communication between the device and the Fog cloud server through AT commands, including: MQTT connection establishment, subscription topic, and publishing data.
Note: Fog Cloud Server does not require a certificate of authentication and requires SSL encryption.

#2) Implementing mqtt communication with Amazon aws cloud
The following explains how to implement MQTT communication between a device and an AWS cloud server through the MQTT communication AT command. The server requires certificate verification, so there are three more certificate verification instructions than Fog communication. The specific process is as follows, including: MQTT connection establishment, subscription topic, and release data.
Description:
- Since Amazon provides paid services, it only provides a complete usage process and does not provide real usernames, passwords and certificates.
- Users need to register the service on Amazon to obtain the relevant user name, password and certificate according to the specific product or project. [Click here to enter the Amazon aws official website] (https://aws.amazon.com (opens new window)).
- When the user actually delivers the certificate, he must append Ctrl+Z (ASCII code is 0x1A, which is not part of the certificate) at the end of the certificate. As the end of the certificate delivery, the module will store the certificate in flash.
