LAUNCHXL-CC1350-4: Signal strength measurement code for the Launchpad platform.

David iverson

Part Number: LAUNCHXL-CC1350-4

I'm working on a project that needs a unique antenna and I was hoping to find some example code, but I've not been able to find what I need. I have to admit I'm much more of a hardware engineer that hacks FW when I have to.

I have two of the LaunchXL-CC1350-4(433MHz) dev kits and one of the BOOSTXL-SHARP128 boards with a screen.

My original thought was to have one LauchXL connect to the other and display an RSSI value on the BoostXL screen.

Is there example code that could do this? Alternatively could this be done with a PC to record the RSSI values every second or so?

Hi David,

I recommend the rfPacketErrorTest example: https://dev.ti.com/tirex/explore/node?node=A__ADHqw6uhnEYZbtL7SffdnA__com.ti.SIMPLELINK_CC13X0_SDK__eCfARaV__LATEST

Cheers,

im pretty sure i got this to work! i had to do a bit of hacking to get it to run at 433 (the code for the launchXL-cc1350-433 would not run the display at all.)
i changed a few files : config.c, menu_nortos.c, and smartrf_settings_predefined.c and was able to make a connection.

thank you for the link to this code set!
