Transmit Interrupt
Starting with the TransmitBasic sample application I modified the code so that a hardware interrupt (specified in RegDioMapping1) was generated on TxDone (FIFO Payload Transmission completed).
The application inserts a message into the RFM95 transmit FIFO every 10 seconds with confirmation of transmission displayed shortly afterwards
public Rfm9XDevice(IIODevice device, ISpiBus spiBus, IPin chipSelectPin, IPin resetPin, IPin interruptPin)
{
// Chip select pin configuration
ChipSelectGpioPin = device.CreateDigitalOutputPort(chipSelectPin, initialState: true);
if (ChipSelectGpioPin == null)
{
Console.WriteLine("ChipSelectGpioPin == null");
}
// Factory reset pin configuration
IDigitalOutputPort resetGpioPin = device.CreateDigitalOutputPort(resetPin);
if (resetGpioPin == null)
{
Console.WriteLine("resetGpioPin == null");
}
resetGpioPin.State = false;
Task.Delay(10);
resetGpioPin.State = true;
Task.Delay(10);
// Interrupt pin for RX message & TX done notification
InterruptGpioPin = device.CreateDigitalInputPort(interruptPin, InterruptMode.EdgeRising);
InterruptGpioPin.Changed += InterruptGpioPin_ValueChanged;
Rfm9XLoraModem = new SpiPeripheral(spiBus, ChipSelectGpioPin);
if (Rfm9XLoraModem == null)
{
Console.WriteLine("Rfm9XLoraModem == null");
}
}
private void InterruptGpioPin_ValueChanged(object sender, DigitalInputPortEventArgs args)
{
byte irqFlags = this.RegisterReadByte(0x12); // RegIrqFlags
this.RegisterWriteByte(0x12, 0xff);// Clear RegIrqFlags
//Console.WriteLine(string.Format("RegIrqFlags:{0}", Convert.ToString(irqFlags, 2).PadLeft(8, '0')));
if ((irqFlags & 0b00001000) == 0b00001000) // TxDone
{
Console.WriteLine("Transmit-Done");
}
}

// Set the Register Fifo address pointer
rfm9XDevice.RegisterWriteByte(0x0D, 0x0); // RegFifoAddrPtr
string messageText = "Hello LoRa!";
// load the message into the fifo

rfm9XDevice.RegisterWrite(0x0, messageBytes); // RegFifo

Now that I’m confident my hardware is all working the next step will be building a full featured client based on my Windows 10 IoT Core library.
