8. Migration from STM32CubeMonitor-RF to STM32CubeWiSE tools

STM32CubeMonitor-RF is being phased out. Within the broader STM32CubeWiSE ecosystem, STM32CubeWiSE Bluetooth LE Explorer and STM32CubeWiSE 802.15.4 Explorer are the tools designed to carry forward the corresponding CubeMonitor-RF workflows. They provide a clear migration path for these protocol areas while continuing to evolve with new capabilities and workflow enhancements.

STM32CubeWiSE is much more than a set of migration tools: it is a growing ecosystem for evaluating and developing STM32 wireless products across multiple domains. In addition to BLE and IEEE 802.15.4, it includes SubGHz-focused tools such as Radio Explorer and Radio Code Generator, as well as Current Estimation and Navigator. These tools extend the available workflows beyond the scope of CubeMonitor-RF.

CubeMonitor-RF area Relevant STM32CubeWiSE tool Workflow continuity Added value
Bluetooth LE STM32CubeWiSE Bluetooth LE Explorer Command exchange, RF tests, advertising, scanning, GATT, scripts, and FUOTA workflows. Local GATT database editing with C export, dedicated security panels, CTE and antenna controls on supported targets, command-history export to scripts or C code, and a standalone script launcher.
IEEE 802.15.4 STM32CubeWiSE 802.15.4 Explorer Frame and continuous TX, RX measurements, and guided two-board PER testing. Live ED/CCA charts and target-dependent LQI, ready-to-use TX frame presets, detailed timestamped PER reports, and automatic serial-port monitoring.

8.1. A straightforward migration

For CubeMonitor-RF workflows, users can select the corresponding Explorer listed above and continue with familiar activities such as command exchange, radio testing, scripting, and network exploration. The other STM32CubeWiSE tools complement this migration by offering capabilities for additional devices, protocols, and evaluation tasks.

The tool suite continues to evolve. Capabilities for the CubeMonitor-RF workflows that are not yet available in the current releases are planned for upcoming versions of the relevant STM32CubeWiSE tools. Confirm target and firmware support for the specific board and use case; release information will describe newly available capabilities.
