STM32F0 WITH RN2485 LORA,RADIO TX RESPONSE ISSUE

Hello,

I have a customized board for STM32F030R8x microcontroller interfaced with Microchip Lora Module RN2483 over UART.

I want to establish P2P connection between Lora module. 

When i am connecting the modules directly over serial port using TTL converter(for testing purpose) and sending the AT commands to i am getting proper response for each command and data is been transmitted and received between modules.

Now when i am connecting my stm32 uart pins to lora module as a transmitter, i need my ADC value to be transmitted to the receiver module.

I am getting proper response from module in 

aRxBuffer this variable for reset & mac pause..

but when i am sending radio tx <adc_data>\r\n i need to get 2 responses for that one is 'ok\r\n' & 'radio_ok_tx'.

For my first ADC Tx i am Getting the first response but for second response in am receiving only char 'r'. And on my second ADC Tx onward it shows response as 'invalid parameter'.

Thank you .

following is the code for main:

#include 'main.h'

#include 'stm32f0xx_hal.h'

#include 'adc.h'

#include 'usart.h'

Not sure there are a lot of RN2485 users here, a lot of us doing LoRa with the STM32 typically connect to an SX1272/1276 radio directly.

I would stop doing this

HAL_UART_Transmit_IT(&huart1, (uint8_t *)&cmd2send, sizeof(cmd2send));

use strlen(cmd2send) otherwise you're going to send a lot of unwanted characters to confuse the modem.

If you use sizeof() on a preformed string, it will result in sending a NUL to the modem.

char aTxStartMessage4[] = 'radio tx ';

sizeof() will be one character longer than you want.

Also be aware that sprintf() will return the length of the string it just created, so consider using the formatting in one step to create the out going string message.

Thank you

Turvey.Clive.002

for your suggestion.

i am sending radio tx <adc_data>\r\n

Note that AT commands should be terminated with \r (ie, CR) only - the \n (LF) is superfluous.

Thanks Andrew Neil. Point Noted.
