Hardware tests

After assembling the device, you can easily check the connection is correct.

Test sketches are located in folder https://github.com/Udj13/AGLoRa/tree/main/hardware-tests

GPS test

https://github.com/Udj13/AGLoRa/blob/main/hardware-tests/aglora-gps-test/aglora-gps-test.ino

If the connection is correct you will see information about your location.

LoRa test

https://github.com/Udj13/AGLoRa/blob/main/hardware-tests/aglora-lora-test/aglora-lora-test.ino

The sketch tries to set default values:

void setLoRaParameters(struct Configuration *configuration) {
  configuration->ADDL = 0x00;
  configuration->ADDH = 0x00;

  configuration->CHAN = 0x17;

  configuration->SPED.uartBaudRate = UART_BPS_9600;
  configuration->SPED.airDataRate = AIR_DATA_RATE_010_24;
  configuration->SPED.uartParity = MODE_00_8N1;

  configuration->OPTION.subPacketSetting = SPS_200_00;
  configuration->OPTION.RSSIAmbientNoise = RSSI_AMBIENT_NOISE_DISABLED;
  configuration->OPTION.transmissionPower = POWER_22;


  configuration->TRANSMISSION_MODE.enableRSSI = RSSI_DISABLED;
  configuration->TRANSMISSION_MODE.fixedTransmission = FT_TRANSPARENT_TRANSMISSION;
  configuration->TRANSMISSION_MODE.enableLBT = LBT_DISABLED;  // monitoring before data transmitted
  configuration->TRANSMISSION_MODE.WORPeriod = WOR_2000_011;
}

and then displays the set values. If they differ from the default ones, the LoRa module is not connected correctly.

After settings it tries to send string "Test data" every 10 seconds, and receive data from other LoRa devices.
