Receive Basic: Rasmatic/RFM69-Arduino-Library
Next step was to extend my code to receive packets (no addressing or encryption). Initially I didn’t receive any messages as I had neglected to configure the variable length flag (RegPacketConfig bit 7) and had a typo in the RegRxBw register configuration.

I modified the Arduino application to transmit a message (with a counter so I could spot dropped messages) every second
#include <SPI.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <RMRFM69.h>
#define SENDER_DETECT_PIN 4
RMRFM69 radio(SPI, 10, 2, 9);
byte counter = 0 ;
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
pinMode(SENDER_DETECT_PIN, INPUT_PULLUP);
radio.Modulation = FSK;
radio.COB = RFM69;
radio.Frequency = 915000;
radio.OutputPower = 10+18; //10dBm OutputPower
radio.PreambleLength = 16; //16Byte preamble
radio.FixedPktLength = false; //packet in message which need to be send
radio.CrcDisable = false; //CRC On
radio.AesOn = false;
radio.SymbolTime = 416000; //2.4Kbps
radio.Devation = 35; //35KHz for devation
radio.BandWidth = 100; //100KHz for bandwidth
radio.SyncLength = 3; //
radio.SyncWord[0] = 0xAA;
radio.SyncWord[1] = 0x2D;
radio.SyncWord[2] = 0xD4;
radio.vInitialize();
if (digitalRead(SENDER_DETECT_PIN) == LOW)
{
Serial.println("RX start");
radio.vGoRx();
}
else
{
Serial.println("TX start");
//radio.vGoTx();
}
radio.dumpRegisters(Serial);
}
void loop()
{
char messageIn[128] = {""};
char messageOut[32]= {"Hello world:"};
if (digitalRead(SENDER_DETECT_PIN) == LOW)
{
if(radio.bGetMessage(messageIn)!=0)
{
Serial.print("MessageIn:");
Serial.println(messageIn);
}
}
else
{
Serial.print("MessageOut:") ;
itoa(counter,&messageOut[strlen( messageOut)],10);
Serial.println(messageOut);
if (!radio.bSendMessage(messageOut, strlen(messageOut)))
{
Serial.println("bSendMessage failed");
}
counter++;
delay(1000);
}
}
With the Arduino device transmitting the debug output in Visual Studio looked like this. It does seem a bit odd that the “Receive-Wait” is slowly getting longer.

I ran the client for several hours and it didn’t appear to drop any messages. Next step is to covert the receive and transmit code to use interrupts.
