radio_test SW modifications

[Leonardo Balocchi]

Good morning,

I work with the nRF52840DK board and the BC840E and I would need to make some changes to the SW of the "radio_test" application, but trying it out I find it a bit complicated at the moment.

What I would need to do is to set a single transmission channel (e.g. 40) from the code, and start transmission from the board once the code has been loaded, without the use of serial commands to start transmission or select the channel.

As far as the transmission part is concerned, I tried this:
I tried editing the main.c file by entering config->type == TX_SWEEP but unfortunately it does not see this parameter.
I have tried entering config->type == TX_SWEEP at the beginning of the file radio_test.c but it tells me that that value is then not used anyway.

Could you please help me?
Thanks in advance!

Hello,

What SDK are you using?

But you want a couple of programs that you can run on some units that just set the device in a given channel and power?

Hi,

as far as development environments are concerned, I am using VS Code with nRF Connect and all the rest of nRF Desktop with RSSI viewer and the other tools.

Yes, and that they start transmitting whenever they are fed, without providing any command from serial.

Then one more thing I should do would be to save the measured RSSI values in a file.

Let me know when it's possible. Thanks in advance!

Hi,


This is the radio test sampled modified, you can build for any SoC, nRF51, nRF52 and nRF53 series and it will work.
