Part Number: CC2530
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2592, Z-STACK

Hello,

I want to increase the transmit power in order to extend device range. my devices are CC2530PA1 with the datasheet in the below link. what are the steps that I'm supposed to do? should I add any libraries in my app?

Hello shahriar,

No libraries need to be added, you should only have to define HAL_PA_LNA_CC2592 and use macRadioSetTxPower to set the TX output power. All of this information has been shared with you in the past. https://e2e.ti.com/support/wireless-connectivity/zigbee-and-thread/f/158/t/812151

Regards,
Ryan

hello Ryan

when I add "macRadioSetTxPower(16dbm) ;" in my init function these errors appear:

Error[Pe223]: function "macRadioSetTxPower" declared implicitly

C:\Texas Instruments\Z-Stack 3.0.2\Projects\zstack\HomeAutomation\SampleTemperatureSensor\Source\zcl_sampletemperaturesensor.c 290

Error[Pe018]: expected a ")"

C:\Texas Instruments\Z-Stack 3.0.2\Projects\zstack\HomeAutomation\SampleTemperatureSensor\Source\zcl_sampletemperaturesensor.c 290

how can I fix it?

#include "mac_low_level.h"
//...
macRadioSetTxPower(16);

You should use "macRadioSetTxPower(16) ;" instead of "macRadioSetTxPower(16dbm) ;".
