Sending -1 packets on 866500000 Hz (BW 125 kHz, SF 10, CR 1,
16 bytes payload, 8 symbols preamble) at 14 dBm, with 1000 ms
between each
INFO: concentrator started, packet can be sent
Sending packet number 1 ...OK
Sending packet number 2 ...OK
Sending packet number 3 ...OK
Each time a new packet is being transmitted the TX-LED of the iC880A should flash. The tool
can be stopped by pressing the key combination
Ctrl+C
. For more information about this tool,
please consult the online help by calling:
./util_tx_test --help

This utility tool is able to demonstrate the receiving ability of the iC880A device. It configures the
iC880A device for RX operation and writes each received packet into a CSV file. That file can be
opened and inspected afterwards.
This tool needs a configuration file that holds parameters relevant to the RX operation of the
concentrator. Please take a look into this file called
global_conf.json
.
An example global_conf.json looks like that:
{
"SX1301_conf": {
"radio_0": {
"enable": true,
"freq": 868200000
},
"chan_multiSF_0": {
/* LoRa MAC channel, 125kHz, all SF, 868.1 MHz */
"enable": true,
"radio": 0,
"if": -100000
},
"chan_multiSF_1": {
/* LoRa MAC channel, 125kHz, all SF, 868.3 MHz */
"enable": true,
"radio": 0,
"if": 100000
},
"chan_multiSF_2": {
/* LoRa MAC channel, 125kHz, all SF, 868.5 MHz */
"enable": true,
"radio": 0,

"chan_Lora_std": {
