Piles of UNOs & Nanos
Hope HM-TRP (2) @915MHz
Experts,
Since I got these a week ago, I can't find anywhere a way to get off the ground and just start talking/configuring them. I can power it up, see the LEDs blink, and that is it.
-I see in some cases the UNO pins 0 & 1 are used to the DTX/DRX on the module (isn't that the only UART on the UNO?)
-I see others able to use SetSerial to use alternate pins.
-I have a USB-232 module (FTDI232), but is that needed to configure it?
-I see a PC application can be downloaded & run, but I'm linux on desktops & dev laptop. Is there no way to use the commands in the manual, or others, on linux?
-The examples in the airspayce library (HopeRF: HopeRF Radio Transceiver Message Library for Arduino) are for a Mega, which has 4 UARTS...
I'm glad to make a video how-to on how to do this from scratch... ...as soon as I can do it!
My target first project for these is a stand-alone remote weather sensor, which will be solar charged, which is why the low power draw is so enticing.
