The ATSF Spreading factor command can be used to set a channel’s SF to the level you would like.

Operational Modes and Configuration 

4.1.

 

Pier to Pier Configuration: 

This is the default configuration for the RV-M50 LoRa Daisy Radio.  The RV-M50 radios can communicate 
to each other in a pier to pier mode without any base station required. Set your frequency and the 
spreading factor sets the over-the-air data rate.  

 

Channel Configuration and Virtual Channelization 

With Virtual Channelization, the M50 will operate in a proprietary, decentralized, 1-5 channel 
frequency-agile manner. This unique feature allows networks of M50 radios to operate with no central 
network controller and no requirement that all radios are in range of each other. This enables the 
reliability of multiple channels in the ISM band while allowing free-form network architectures as 
required. 

 

General Configuration 

For regulatory compliance, stay within your frequency range of our regulator requirements, and keep 
the bandwidth at 500kHz unless the radio is in frequency hopping mode.

Channel data rate 

To configure any individual channel, issue ATHP <channel>, where <channel> ranges to select the 
channel.  SHOW command will list the configuration of all channels. Once a channel to configure is 
selected, the commands below will modify the parameters of the channel. 

Every channel has settable frequency, bandwidth and over the spreading factor.
