According to the doc of TTU it does not need an extra antenna, thereās one antenna the one labeled in the picture as AF.
Looking your code, I see two things different from mine, first you disable the CRC when transmitting is that a reason for? I have done it as well, no luck thouh. The second one is that you specify a payload of , where can I do that in the RN2483 ? with the command radio tx 5 and radio rx 5?
Shouldnāt make a difference, disabling CRC only you would get an error in receive if the CRC is incorrect but it would give a signal.
Payload length is only needed when using implicit headerā¦ So that one is not used. I did both receiving and transmitting with this code, but it seems I have mixed it up a bit.
I used this code below in the receive interrupt btw:
u1_t len = readReg(0x13);
u1_t snr = readReg(0x19);
u1_t rssi = readReg(0x1A);
u1_t buffe[512] = {0};
// set pointer to 0
writeReg(0x0D, 0x00);
readBuf(0x00, buffe, len);
writeReg(0x12, 0xFF);
But this has nothing to do with your problem. I think I donāt know how to solve your problem unfortunately, I ran out of ideas. The antenna seems te be fine.
Thank you very much for your help scle, I really appreciate it. I donāt know neither where is the issue, maybe I should throw away this platform and go for a different one. I am run out of ideas as well.
I have two nodes like this: 868MHz RN2483 LoRaā¢ Technology Mote and managed to get them to talk to each other as described in the link @sergiosena provided earlier (setting all parameters etc.).
I decided to take small steps and started with a simple setup connecting both nodes to my Windows PC. Both were recognised as serial ports (in my case COM6 & COM7). I then used a serial monitor/terminal application (like Tera Term) and initially entered all commands per hand. I know, not optimal but served the purpose and I know that the nodes can talk to each other.
Now my plan is to write scripts/programs to automate the stuff so thanks to all for some ideas in this thread.
Well my nodes are already mounted in the TTU, so as starting I am using arduino workbench to develop, the code, I had just to simple functions on configuing the other sending or receiving. Thus not big deal, I increased arduino void function timeout to have enough transmission time, but as you see in the post not luckā¦
how about running a simple āserial in, serial out sketchā on Arduino as described here for the WiFi chip: Arduino to ESP8266 By Serial Communication? I guess this way the RN2483 shall be easier to control during your tests.
Thanks @ksl2europe, but my chip is embbeded on the aurdion board, since is the The Things Uno, so you mean that I read from the serial pins of the TTU the serial port?
Interestingly, I also played with the P2P connection between two RN2483 . Indeed, it succeeds in transmitting data in both directions. Just fun to test,
Do you mean exchange data between them? Yes it is possible without the gatway, in p2p mode, youāre relying on the LoRa modulation only, there is no LoRaWan stack running on top of the modulation, letās say that at p2p your are only using the PHY layer of LoRa and not the aboves one ( like Link one)
hi @ksl2europe @IOT_Marco @denisber they use simple P2P communication without a Gateway sorry, but there is a documentation, or demo on how to make communication between RN2483 and Gateway ? or course using Lorawan (there RF interface ) @oetelaar this is great, nice to success established bidirectional communication between tow RN2483
In our case, we need to make a communication between Linklabs Gateway LoRaWAN and RN2483 ?
We search on many forum and contacting many support team, like LinkLabs, but always no response or they donāt know also, we canāt find documentations about this
How isnāt available if a gateway like LinkLabs destination to be the main point of IoT network, and his manufacturer donāt make the necessary documentation or support for that
Please, anyone have idea, we will be appreciate your help
Iām a student and receive project from my teacher about transmit data between two RN2483, you can share your code and experience about them?
Please help me.Thank you.
@thonguyen,
There is no code to share.
Every RN2483 (as you can see in the picture above) has itās own uart connection via ftdi module and a usb port on a laptop, so there is no wired connection between them. On both laptops you start a program like Termite and all you have to do is program one RN2483 (1) as a receiver and the other (2) as a transmitter with the commands like:
(1)
radio rx 0 //this RN2483 is the receiver and
(2)
radio rx 1 //this RN2483 is the transmitter
after that you can send and receive data
(2)
radio tx 1234
hi,
how to receive ant data send from RN2483 to server via seral port using minicom.
For example, message sent by rn2483 received by lora_server at laptop and stored in database.
Same,like how to receive the message and store it in seperate location file using serial connectionā¦
Hi there, I have also tested p2p for a project and itās simple and good.
But thereās something I canāt understand that is beyond my ācommunication technologyā knowdelge.
I have two modules RN2483, in the first I send the command āradio tx 0ā after I set the needed configuration (frequency, pwr, iqi). In the second I send for example āmac join abpā.
If mac uses radio layer shoudnāt the first module read something when does the āradio txā? It would read garbage from he āmac join abpā command, but it would read something right?. Or is that radio layer filters it somehow? Or Iām missing some configuration parameter in the first module?
Thanks in advance.
