6. Radio Settings

The radio settings available depend upon the modulation, denoted Mod in the sub-menu Radio Settings. For
each modem you can modify the modulation and power parameters. Registered settings are proper to each
modulation.

6.1 LORA Modulation

The radio settings available for LORA modulation are:
- Frequency (Freq) as described in
- Payload (PL): size of the payload between 1 and 64 bytes
- Transmission Power (Tx Pow): in steps of 1 dBm
o
from -17 dBm to +15 dBm for the SX1261
o
from -10 dBm to +22 dBm for the SX1262
- Param 1: Spreading Factor between SF5 and SF12
- Param 2: BandWidth (BW) from 7 kHz to 500 kHz
- Param 3: Coding Rate (CR) of the Forward Error Correction applied to the
packet of either CR 4/5, 4/6, 4/7 or 4/8
- Param 4: Packet type of either Variable length or Fixed length

6.2 GFSK Modulation

The radio settings available for GFSK modulation are:
- Frequency (Freq) as described in
- Payload (PL): size of the payload between 1 and 64 bytes
- Transmission Power (Tx Pow): in steps of 1 dBm
o
from -17 dBm to +15 dBm for the SX1261
o
from -10 dBm to +22 dBm for the SX1262
- Param 1: Bitrate from 0.1 kbps to250 kbps
- Param 2: Frequency deviation (Fd) between 5 and 150 kHz.
This must be set realistically in accordance with the bitrate
- Param 3: Tx Modulation Filtering (Gaussian, RC, RRC) with BT from 0.3 to 1
- Payload: BandWidth (BW) from 4.8 kHz to 467 kHz
Note:
Certain settings will appear in
SX1261/2 Data Sheet to see the relationship details between bitrate, frequency deviation and bandwidth.
