New XStream Modem
This week, we tested out our new modem that we bought. It is the XStream OEM RF Module. We first connected it to the software (XCTU) and configure the new modem. Since this is the newer version of modem, a newer softaware of XCTU is required for the configuration of the radio with the wire antenna. Both modules (receiving and transmitting) must have the same baud rate (19200), Hopping Channel (1) and Destination Channel (8). Then we used the modem for range testing. After range testing, we tried sending data with the arduino as well as receiving with PLX-DAQ.
