There are 6 main menus:
DIAGNOSTICS
LINK QUALITY
TEMPERATURE SENSOR
LIGHT SENSOR
FREQ HOPPER
SYSTEM SETUP
They are accessible by moving the joystick downward (not to be confused with pressing
it) or upward after power-up. At each main menu which has sub-menus, these sub-
menus can be accessed by pressing the joystick. Moving the joystick leftward backs out
of the currently-selected sub-menu.
These 6 main menus and each one’s sub-menu are described here:
DIAGNOSTICS - provides transmit and receive functions for testing and evaluation.
The sub-menus are:
LINK QUALITY - two transceivers exchange data packets with one-another. Each trans-
ceiver displays the relative strength of the signal it receives.
TEMPERATURE SENSOR - two transceivers exchange with one-another the tempera-
ture measurement made by each’s on-board sensor. The temperature measured by a
transceiver’s own sensor, as well as that reported by the other transceiver, is displayed.
LIGHT SENSOR - two or more transceivers exchange with one-another the light inten-
sity measurement made by each’s on-board sensor. This is a multi-transceiver
demonstration with a single MASTER and one or more REMOTEs. The intensity mea-
sured by a transceiver’s own sensor, as well as that reported by the other transceiver, is
displayed. NOTE: the REMOTEs communicate only with the MASTER – not with other
REMOTEs.
FREQ HOPPER - two transceivers exchange data packets, in either single or continu-
ous mode, as they hop among pre-set channels.
has a variable value.
MARK - transmits a continuous logic "1" (the upper FSK frequency)
SPACE - transmits a continuous logic "0" (the lower FSK frequency)
TOGGLE - generates a continuous square wave by toggling between MARK and
SPACE (FSK mode)
RSSI - indicates received signal strength
PKT TX - transmits packet data
PKT RX - receives packet data
S LINK - serial link mode; permits two PCs to communicate over an RF link
