Jeelib + Arduino SPI

Projects Libraries

Hello

I used jeelib (GitHub - jeelabs/jeelib: JeeLib for Arduino IDE: Ports, RF12, and RF69 drivers from JeeLabs) in my projects and liked to try my code in different microcontrollers. I forked jeelib to work with Arduino SPI library. It made possible to use MCU:s like ESP8266, ESP32, STM32F103C8T6 and STM32F103CB. Also ATMEGA328PB with MiniCore, LGT8F328 and Arduino Nano Every works.

As an example is RF12demo_SPI.ino, whitch is derived from original RF12demo.ino using Arduino SPI-library and is supporting MCUs mentioned. As original jeelib, supported radiomodules are Hopes RFM12b and RFM69CW.

I hope this fork is useful to someone.

Hi

This is just what I need for a project I'm working on for a load of old existing sensors with RFM12B's that use the jeelib protocol for comms.

I'm trying to use an ESP32 as a gateway with an RFM12B or RFM69CW and the jeelib protocol.

Currently I'm trying your RF12demo_SPI example with no modification and the following connections :-

MOSI - GPIO23
MISO - GPIO19
SCK - GPIO18
SS - GPIO5

I'm guessing about which connection for the RFM12B IRQ, from your code it looks like GPIO34.

Unfortunately, I'm not getting anywhere with it, and all I get on the serial console is SPI.begin();

I would be really grateful for any help, especially any information on what connections you used and what if any defines I need to change in your code to use an ESP32 and a RFM12B.

Many Thanks.

I've started using this on my Solar Power Diversion project. Works great for me on a TinyPICO ESP32, talking to a RFM69HCW - compatible with RFM12b

I'm using the usual SPI pins as above; the default for RFM_IRQ is indeed GPIO34, it's set at line 46 in rf69_compat.cpp in the library directory. Other places as well for other boards.

I needed to change it to GPIO32 because 34 is already allocated on the TinyPICO, and that change worked for me.

Great library fork, just the job, thanks very much hunnupul.
