6 ഓപ്പറേറ്റിംഗ് മോഡുകൾ

The DX-LR03 module supports various working modes for data transmission, including transparent transmission, fixed-point transmission, and broadcast transmission.

Image: Visual representation of the three primary working modes: transparent, broadcast, and fixed-point transmission, showing how data is routed based on channel and address settings.

• സുതാര്യമായ പ്രക്ഷേപണം: In this mode, data is transmitted directly between modules on the same channel without addressing. It requires both sender and receiver to be configured to the same channel.
• Broadcast Transmission: Data is sent to all modules within range that are configured to the same channel. This mode does not require specific addressing.
• Fixed-Point Transmission: Data is sent to a specific module identified by its unique address and channel. This allows for targeted communication between devices.

These modes can be configured using AT commands. Refer to the AT Command section for details on setting the operating mode.

7. AT Commands

The DX-LR03 module is configured and controlled using a set of AT commands. These commands allow you to set parameters such as mode, frequency, MAC address, bandwidth, spreading factor, and more.

Image: A partial list of AT commands and their functions, such as entering/exiting AT command mode, setting baud rate, MAC address, operating mode, sleep mode, working channels, and transmit power.

Common AT Commands:

• ഉത്തരം: Test instruction (responds with OK).
• +++: Enter/exit AT command mode.
• AT+BAUD: Set/query serial baud rate.
• AT+MAC: Set/query device address.
• AT+MODE: Set/query operating mode.
• AT+SLEEP: Set/query power consumption mode.
• AT+CHANNEL: Set/query working channels.
• AT+POWE: Set/query transmit power.

For a complete list of AT commands and detailed usage instructions, please refer to the comprehensive technical documentation available on the manufacturer's webസൈറ്റ്.

8. സീരിയൽ കമ്മ്യൂണിക്കേഷൻ

The DX-LR03 module uses UART serial communication for transparent data transmission between devices. This allows for straightforward integration with microcontrollers and other serial-enabled systems.

Baud Rate Settings:

The module supports various baud rates, which can be configured using AT commands. The default setting is 9600bps.

• Supported Baud Rates: 1200, 2400, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200, 128000 bps.

  • Verify that both modules are operating on the same frequency band and channel.
  • Check the transmit power setting using AT commands; ensure it is set appropriately for your application.
• Module Not Responding to AT Commands:
  • Ensure you are sending the '+++' command to enter AT command mode before sending other commands.
  • Check for correct serial port settings.
  • Verify the module is powered correctly.
• ഇടവിട്ടുള്ള ആശയവിനിമയം:
  • Check for potential sources of electromagnetic interference in the operating environment.
  • Ensure power supply stability.
  • Verify that the module's operating temperature is within the specified range.
