Hello everyone! I am working on my project where I can send data from using wireless. I am using RF 433MHz Rx/Tx. I have used a lot of examples using RadioHead library and VirtualWire library, however, I can't seem to communicate the Rx and Tx.
For my Transmitter I am using Arduino Nano, and for my receiver I am using Arduino Mega2560.
Apparently I am using this code but still not working:
For Receiver:
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("Device is ready");
// Initialize the IO and ISR
vw_setup(2000); // Bits per sec
vw_rx_start(); // Start the receiver
}
void loop()
{
if (vw_get_message(message, &messageLength)) // Non-blocking
{
Serial.print("Received: ");
for (int i = 0; i < messageLength; i++)
{
Serial.write(message[i]);
}
Serial.println();
}
}
For Transmitter:
// transmitter.pde
//
// Simple example of how to use VirtualWire to transmit messages
// Implements a simplex (one-way) transmitter with an TX-C1 module
//
// See VirtualWire.h for detailed API docs

#include <VirtualWire.h>
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600); // Debugging only
Serial.println("setup");
// Initialise the IO and ISR
vw_set_ptt_inverted(true); // Required for DR3100
vw_setup(2000); // Bits per sec
}
void loop()
{
const char *msg = "hello";
digitalWrite(13, true); // Flash a light to show transmitting
vw_send((uint8_t *)msg, strlen(msg));
vw_wait_tx(); // Wait until the whole message is gone
digitalWrite(13, false);
delay(200);
}
I have the same problem !
Arduino Mega2560+Arduino Nano+rf 433Mhz
for two days I'm working on this and I can't make a connection.
none of the libraries seem to work . tested Radiohead , virtual wire and etc.
how should I know if the sender or receiver are ok?
does anyone have any suggestion about how I can send and receive data using these items?

Please read the first post in any forum entitled how to use this forum. http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php/topic,148850.0.html .
Then look down to item #7 about how to post your code.
It will be formatted in a scrolling window that makes it easier to read.
Can you please post a copy of your circuit, in CAD or a picture of a hand drawn circuit in jpg, png?
