CC85XXDK Evaluation Module

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC8531, CC2590

Using the Purepath Wireless Configurator software I'm successful configuring a 1 master and 1 slave arrangement. I'm unsuccessful configuring 1 master and 3 slave modules. The distributor FAE I deal with for this product was also unsuccessful and I haven't heard a solution from him.

So I'm going direct to TI. Do you have a configuration document that would walk me through the appropriate settings for this arrangement?

Thank you,

Gary.

    Hi Gary, 

    Just trying the most obvious first. 
    Have you increased the maximum slave count under the 'radio' panel in the PurePath Wireless Configurator for your master configuration?

    Thanks.......arg....that's it. Amazing that the FAE also missed it. We were both focused on the "Slave" section requiring the quantity setting.

    Most appreciated!

    Gary.

    Hi.

    I'm continuing my evaluation on the CC8531 using the CC85XXDK eval kit.

    At the present time I'm testing for transmission drop outs. I have the slave board 35' from the master and experience a consistent 200mS drop out a few times per hour. (My method is transmitting a constant 1Khz sine wave and scope capturing the drop out duration).

    I've moved the test set to different environments to rule out a strong interfering signal.

    I'm curious and blame the Purepath system because the drop outs are consistently a 200mS duration.

    I also can't believe that TI would have acquired this technology with this issue, and think that it must be a configuration issue.

    Any ideas?

    Gary.

    From my reading of several posts it looks like you can help me with this present issue:

    I even experience this problem with the test units outside. Latency presently set to 20mS.

    Any ideas?

    Hi Gary, 

    Could you please attached your configuration files for me to have a look at?
    Are you using CC85x1 in a USB configuration?

    Hi Kjetil.

    Thanks for your reply. I'm out of the office, I'll send the files to you on Monday.

    Most appreciated,

    Gary.

    Hi Kjetil:

    I'm using the CC8531 with an analog 2CH input, 2CH output.

    The application is wireless loudspeakers. Maximum configuration is 1 master 4 slaves. I'm using the CC2590 to increase the transmission range.

    I explained my test method above.

    Hopefully the attached file is the one that you requested. It is based on the preloaded examples with slight modifications. This is the file I used to test the 1st level of drop out testing.

    (Don't know if the "Attach file" worked above please advise)

    Thanks,

    Gary.
