4. Instruccions de funcionament
Once integrated into your system, the module operates as a LoRa transceive device. Programming of the host microcontroller is required to control the module via its SPI interface.
4.1 Funcionament bàsic
- Inicialització: Configure the module's registers via SPI to set parameters such as operating frequency, spreading factor, bandwidth, and coding rate.
- Transmissió: Load data into the module's transmit buffer and initiate transmission. The module will handle the LoRa modulation and RF transmission.
- Recepció: Configure the module for reception. It will listen for incoming LoRa packets on the specified frequency and parameters. Received data can be read from the module's receive buffer via SPI.
- Gestió d'energia: Utilize the module's low-power modes (if supported by the SX1262/SX1268 chip and implemented in your firmware) to conserve energy in battery-powered applications.
For detailed programming and register configurations, refer to the SX1262/SX1268 datasheet and any available EBYTE programming guides or libraries.
5. Manteniment
These modules are designed for long-term reliability and generally require minimal maintenance. However, adhering to good practices can extend their lifespan and ensure optimal performance.

6. Solució De Problemes
If you encounter issues with your LoRa module, consider the following troubleshooting steps:
- Sense comunicació:
- Verify power supply voltage i estabilitat.
- Check SPI connections (MOSI, MISO, SCK, CS) and ensure they are correctly wired and enabled.
- Confirm the host microcontroller's SPI configuration (mode, clock speed).
- Ensure the module is correctly initialized in your firmware. - Mala qualitat del senyal/abast:
- Check antenna connection and ensure it is securely attached and undamaged.
- Verify the antenna is appropriate for the module's operating frequency (868MHz or 915MHz).
- Ensure there are no obstructions between transmitting and receiving modules.
- Check for local RF interference.
- Confirm transmit power and receive sensitivity settings in firmware. - Sobreescalfament del mòdul:
- Ensure the supply voltage no supera els 5.5 V.
- Check the emission current against specifications (610mA for 868M30S, 640mA for 915M30S). Excessive current draw may indicate a fault or incorrect configuration. - Funcionament intermitent:
- Check for loose connections or cold solder joints.
- Ensure the power supply is stable and free from noise.
