10. FAQ

10.1 Communication range is too short

The communication distance will be affected when obstacle exists.

Data lose rate will be affected by temperature, humidity and co-channel interference.

The ground will absorb and reflect wireless radio wave, so the performance will be poor when testing near ground.

Seawater has great ability in absorbing wireless radio wave, so performance will be poor when testing near the sea.

The signal will be affected when the antenna is near metal object or put in a metal case.

Power register was set incorrectly, air data rate is set as too high (the higher the air data rate, the shorter the distance).

When the power supply at room temperature is lower than the recommended low voltage, the lower the voltage is, the lower the

transmitting power is.

Due to antenna quality or poor matching between antenna and module.

10.2 Module is easy to damage

Please check the power supply and ensure it is within the recommended range. Voltage higher than the peak will lead to a

permanent damage to the module.

Please check the stability of power supply and ensure the voltage not to fluctuate too much.

Please make sure anti-static measures are taken when installing and using, high frequency devices have electrostatic susceptibility.

Please ensure the humidity is within limited range for some parts are sensitive to humidity.

Please avoid using modules under too high or too low temperature.
