3. Ping Pong Demo
A Ping Pong Test is a bidirectional test between a pair of SX1261/SX1262 kits. One kit needs to be configured as
the Ping Pong Master and the other kit as the Ping Pong Slave. Communication is initiated by the Master whose
packet is received by the Slave from which the PER may be calculated.
In response to this packet the Slave sends an acknowledgement, which also contains statistical information
about the link calculated by the Slave. The Master, upon receiving this response, will then display both the PER
for the Master to Slave and the Slave to Master packet exchanges.
Press on Demo Ping Pong from the Welcome Display to access this test.
You can change the radio settings from this menu:
Press SETTINGS to adjust the same radio settings on the Master and the
Slave units. See
Before starting the test:
-

To start the Ping Pong test:

Rx PSR: Percentage Packet Success Rate for the last packet exchange
