## Detailed Description

Implements all common low-level methods to control the wireless module. Every module class contains one private instance of this class.

## Member Enumeration Documentation

## ◆ OpMode_t

enum Module::OpMode_t

Constants to use in a mode table set be setRfSwitchTable. These constants work for most radios, but some radios define their own constants to be used instead.

See setRfSwitchTable() for details.

Enumerator
MODE_END_OF_TABLE | End of table marker, use END_OF_MODE_TABLE constant instead. Value is zero to ensure zero-initialized mode ends the table
MODE_IDLE | Idle mode
MODE_RX | Receive mode
MODE_TX | Transmission mode

| inline

Access method to get the pin number of SPI chip select.

Returns
  Pin number of SPI chip select configured in the constructor.

## ◆ operator=()

Module & Module::operator= | ( | const Module & | mod | ) |

Overload for assignment operator.

Parameters

  frame | rvalue Module.

## ◆ reflect()

uint32_t Module::reflect | ( | uint32_t | in,
|  | uint8_t | bits
| ) |  |
| static

Function to reflect bits within a byte.

Parameters

  in | The input to reflect.
  bits | Number of bits to reflect.

Returns
  The reflected input.

## ◆ setRfSwitchPins()

void Module::setRfSwitchPins | ( | uint32_t | rxEn,
|  | uint32_t | txEn
| ) |  |

Some modules contain external RF switch controlled by pins. This function gives RadioLib control over those pins to automatically switch between various modes: When idle both pins will be LOW, during TX the `txEn` pin will be HIGH, during RX the `rxPin` will be HIGH.

Radiolib will automatically set the pin mode and value of these pins, so do not control them from the sketch.

When more than two pins or more control over the output values are needed, use the setRfSwitchTable() function.

Parameters

  rxEn | RX enable pin.
  txEn | TX enable pin.

## ◆ setRfSwitchState()

void Module::setRfSwitchState | ( | uint8_t | mode | ) |

Set RF switch state.

Parameters

  mode | The mode to set. This must be one of the MODE_ constants, or a radio-specific constant.

## ◆ setRfSwitchTable()

void Module::setRfSwitchTable | ( | const uint32_t(&) | pins[RFSWITCH_MAX_PINS],
|  | const RfSwitchMode_t | table[]
| ) |  |

Some modules contain external RF switch controlled by pins. This function gives RadioLib control over those pins to automatically switch between various modes.

Radiolib will automatically set the pin mode and value of these pins, so do not control them from the sketch.

Parameters

  pins | A reference to an array of pins to control. This should always be an array of 3 elements. If you need less pins, use RADIOLIB_NC for the unused elements.
  table | A reference to an array of pin values to use for each supported mode. Each element is an RfSwitchMode_T struct that lists the mode for which it applies and the values for each of the pins passed in the pins argument respectively.

The `pins` array will be copied into the Module object, so the original array can be deallocated after this call. However, a reference to the `table` array will be stored, so that array must remain valid as long RadioLib is being used.

The `mode` field in each table row should normally use any of the `MODE_*` constants from the Module::OpMode_t enum. However, some radios support additional modes and will define their own OpMode_t enum.

The length of the table is variable (to support radios that add additional modes), so the table must always be terminated with the special END_OF_MODE_TABLE value.

Normally all modes should be listed in the table, but for some radios, modes can be omitted to indicate they are not supported (e.g. when a radio has a high power and low power TX mode but external circuitry only supports low power). If applicable, this is documented in the radio class itself.

#### Example

For example, on a board that has an RF switch with an enable pin connected to PA0 and a TX/RX select pin connected to PA1:

// In global scope, define the pin array and mode table
static const uint32_t rfswitch_pins[] =
{PA0, PA1, RADIOLIB_NC};
static const Module::RfSwitchMode_t rfswitch_table[] = {
{Module::MODE_IDLE, {LOW, LOW}},
{Module::MODE_RX, {HIGH, LOW}},
{Module::MODE_TX, {HIGH, HIGH}},
Module::END_OF_MODE_TABLE,
};
void setup() {
...
// Then somewhere in setup, pass them to radiolib
radio.setRfSwitchTable(rfswitch_pins, rfswitch_table);
...
}

## ◆ RFSWITCH_MAX_PINS

const size_t Module::RFSWITCH_MAX_PINS = 3

The documentation for this class was generated from the following files:

- src/Module.h
- src/Module.cpp
