Sending and receiving data between two evaluation boards with the GHz Radio

[Alex Lynchosky]

I'm attempting to have two separate evaluation boards talk to each other through the GHz Radio. I've read the docs, and they explain that I have to set the radio in either "TX" or "RX" mode in order to send or receive, respectively. The examples given, "Radio Transmitter" and "Radio Receiver" only allow the eval kit to do one or the other, not both. I've tried messing around with the code a bit, but whenever I attempt to have both send and receive on both boards, it stops working.

Is there an easy way to get two boards to talk to each other through the GHz Radio? I need both of them to do both sending and receiving. Thanks!

The radio is not able to be a transmitter or a receiver at the same time. When one board is sending the other board needs to listen and vice versa.

To switch the state of the radio, you need to disable the radio and start it again in the new mode.

Yes, I understand this, but the code doesn't explain an easy way to do this. I need one radio to wait for a message, and when it receives the message, to send a reply package in response.

I need the other radio to send a message until it knows it's sent, then wait for the reply message. There are no examples of how to do this. I've tried just alternating the radio mode in the while loop, but then the radios neither send nor receive.

Is there any documentation on this?
