Title: Pi Burst to ListenMode Node
Post by: Magmanus on March 12, 2019, 06:06:27 PM
Hey,

I have got a problem with my Arduino. I set my RFM69HW in Listen Mode with Default settings. The Arduino is in sleep mode. I try to send a burst of messages from my Raspberry to my Arduino. But in the Python Lib for the RFM69HW is no Function to send a burst over a time. Or i didnt find it.
When i set my RFM on my Arduino board in RX mode and my arduino in sleep i can wake up my arduino. So connection and everything is okay. I just cant wake up my arduino when the tranceiver is in listen mode. I think the problem is that there are no messages sending in this 256us RX Mode time. I hope you guys understand my problem. Is there a function in the lib for python to send a burst of messages? Or how can i create such function? Thank you guys.

This forum is dedicated exclusively to the Pi Gateway project. Not arduino, rfm69, python or Pi.
Which python lib do you refer to?

Im soory. Didnt know this. Im using https://github.com/etrombly/RFM69 (https://github.com/etrombly/RFM69) lib. In the description is a link to the lowpowerlab lib. Thats why im here. When i try to use the function send() in the python lib in a while loop, every functioncall last about 1 sec. Why is it so slow? I need to hit the 256us

I did not write a python lib.
You should ask the creator of the python port.
