Description

This program implements a SCPI command parser. When connected via the debug virtual comm port, you can command the radio and peripherals to perform specific tasks or to set specific parameters. The serial port defaults to 9600bps N-8-1.

Example

The following exampling causes the NA Mote to transmit a continuous LoRa signal.

Example SCPI Commands

*IDN?
RA:MOD LORA
RA:FREQ 903
RA:PAS PA_BOOST
RA:OCP 170

radio events

Radio events are reported into the Questionable Data Status Event Register, which is summarized in Bit 3 (QSB) of Status Byte Register.

enabling event and reading event

RA:MOD?
"LORa"
RA:OP?
"RXC"
STAT:QUES:ENAB 512
*STB?
