  • Page 3: Introduction

    In most cases a simple quarter wavelength wire or a PCB track will do. Connect a piece of wire to the RF pin with length corresponding to the quarter of a wavelength. For space limited products, contact Radiocrafts and we will recommend the best antenna solution for your application.

  • Page 5: Configuring The Module Over The Uart Interface

    3.3 Exit CONFIG mode and return to SLEEP When you have configured the module, you can send either ‘Z’ or ‘X’ to exit CONFIG mode and go back to SLEEP (normal operation). Page 4 of 29 ©2019 Radiocrafts AS RC1180-MPC1/RC1701HP-MPC1 User Manual (rev. 1.1)

  • Page 6: Set Up And Use The Pulse Inputs

    If the UART is not connected to any circuitry during operation, make sure to include a pull-up resistor to RXD. Data to this pin will wake up the module from sleep. Page 5 of 29 ©2019 Radiocrafts AS RC1180-MPC1/RC1701HP-MPC1 User Manual (rev. 1.1)

  • Page 7: Set Up And Use The Installation Pin

    This byte will contain access number, which is increased automatically for each message sent. 0x00 Status byte. This byte will contain information about Tamper and Battery alarm. 0x00 0x00 Configuration word. No encryption enabled. Page 6 of 29 ©2019 Radiocrafts AS RC1180-MPC1/RC1701HP-MPC1 User Manual (rev. 1.1)

  • Page 8: Set Up And Use The Tamper Pin

    When the Tamper pin is enabled as mentioned above, and the Tamper pin is activated the MPC module will set the alarm bit in the STATUS byte of the next message. The STATUS byte is found in the transport layer header. Page 7 of 29 ©2019 Radiocrafts AS RC1180-MPC1/RC1701HP-MPC1 User Manual (rev. 1.1)

  • Page 9: Set Up And Use Encryption

    Wait for ‘>’ prompt. ‘Z’ 0x5A (none) Exit CONFIG mode. Module returns to SLEEP state Note! The module does not support encrypted messages for the OTA123 update procedure. Page 8 of 29 ©2019 Radiocrafts AS RC1180-MPC1/RC1701HP-MPC1 User Manual (rev. 1.1)

  • Page 10: Set Up And Use Ota (Over The Air) Configuration

    Warning!: If some of the configurations are changed un-intentionally to illegal values, it can set the module into a not recoverable, nonworking condition. Currently there is no filter on permitted values. Note! The module does not support encrypted messages for the OTA123 update procedure.
