CC1310: How to use the latest smartrf setting for the contiki cc1310 rf driver ?

Hi fanyusen,

The SmartRF Settings used in the Contiki NG framework is modified to be used for IEEE 802.15.4g PHY mode on the sub-1 GHz band with Contiki. It is not recommended to roll your own settings.

The RF driver as part of the Contiki netstack does its own modifications to the settings, and subsequently might override your settings. Additionally, the RF driver also makes assumptions on some settings being set or not. What I recommend to do instead is to modify RF parameters directly with the NETSTACK_RADIO.set_value() API. All available radio parameters are defined in the "dev/radio.h" file. 

Note that the SmartRF Settings with Contiki NG do support project configuration for different overrides, which can be inserted directly into the overrides list. See file "arch/cpu/cc26xx-cc13xx/rf-core/smartrf-settings.c" for an overview of  these configurations.

Out of curiosity, why do you want to use the latest SmartRF settings?

This is because the smartrf_settings we are currently using are 5 years ago，The users' manuals mentioning that It is best to use the latest smartrf_settings from smartrf studio to ensure optimal RF performance.

By the way , we are not used Contiki netstack,but proprietary radio.

Fanyusen: If you are using proprietary radio, why are you looking into contiki and not the SDKs?

I'm confused, you explicitly said you were working the the Contiki RF driver?

We extracted the RF driver from contiki. We want to use cc1310 in a non-RTOS environment.

Why the override cannot be replaced with the latest version??

We want to use cc1310 in a non-RTOS environment.

This seems to be the only way.

Thanks.
