+ | |||
+ | ==Modulation Mode== | ||
+ | HM-TRLR series transparent transceiver module can work in the traditional FSK / GFSK modulation mode, as well as in LoRa modulation mode. According to the application requirements, users can switch the modulation mode conveniently. Using principles: use FSK / GFSK modulation when requiring large quantities of high-rate data transmission; use the LoRa modulation when long-distance data transmission is needed. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Operating Mode== | ||
+ | HM-TRLR series transparent transceiver module has three kinds of operating mode: Running Mode、Configuration Mode and Sleep Mode. When the module is in Running Mode, users can send and receive data; when the module is in the Configuration Mode, users can change the formulation parameters according to the need via AT commands; Sleep Mode allows the module to enter into a low power consumption status. | ||

+ | *Running Mode Timing Diagram | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[File:Running Mode Timing Diagram.png]] | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''Note''':When the modulation pattern is LoRa and the HM - TRLR receive buffer is full, the STATUS pin will output a low level. | ||
+ | |||
+ | *Configuration Mode Timing Diagram | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[File:Configuration Mode Timing Diagram.jpg|600px|]] | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''Note''':The module enters into the Configuration Mode by pulling up the CONFIG pin. If the STATUS output is at low level, users can send AT commands to revise the parameters. | ||
+ | |||
+ | *Sleep Mode Timing Diagram | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[File:Sleep Mode Timing Diagram.png|600px|]] | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''Note''': Sleep mode is controlled by SLEEP pin | ||
+ | |||
+ | *Reset Timing Diagram | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[File:Reset Timing Diagram.png|600px|]] | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Channel Frequency== | ||
+ | Different model of HM-TRLR module has different frequency band, each frequency band is divided into 16 channels, and frequency details are as below: | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[File:Channel Frequency.png]] | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Transfer rate== | ||
+ | When HM-TRLR module works in FSK modulation, the air rate can self-adapt to serial baud rate. Theoretically, it is able to transfer wireless data, it’s better to transmit in batches to avoid interference in the air if the data package is large. | ||
+ | When HM-TRLR module works in LoRa modulation, the transmission rate depends on the Signal Bandwidth, the Spreading Factor, FEC coding rate and the Payload Length. The sensitivity of receiver is only related to the Signal Bandwidth and the Spreading Factor. The following table shows the relationship between the transmission rate and parameters: | ||
+ | |||
+ | Test conditions: | ||
+ | |||
+ | 1. Supply voltage = 3.3 V | ||
+ | |||
+ | 2. Temperature = 25° C | ||
+ | |||
+ | 3. CRC on payload enabled | ||
+ | |||
+ | 4. Payload length = 64 bytes | ||
+ | |||
+ | 5. Coding Rate = 1 | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[File:Test.png]] | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Hopping Frequency Spread Spectrum (HFSS)== | ||
+ | |||
+ | When HM-TRLR module works in LoRa modulation, it has the function of HFSS, which can be applied to the occasions where the time of frequency occupancy is limited. For example, in the United States, the frequency of the ISM segments 902-928, when the data transmission time of a packet exceeds the frequency occupancy time limits, you can use frequency-hopping technology, there are two parameters need to be set: Hopping Cycle and Frequency Stepping. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Calculating Formula: | ||
+ | |||
+ | HoppingPeriod(ms) = ( 2SF/BW) * FreqHoppingValue | ||
+ | |||
+ | SF = SpreadingFactor | ||
+ | |||
+ | BW = SingnalBandWidth | ||
+ | |||
+ | FreqHoppingValue = 1~255 | ||
+ | |||
+ | FreqStep = 61Hz*FreqStepValue | ||
+ | |||
+ | FreqStepValue = 0~65535 | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Node ID Function with FSK== | ||
+ | When HM-TRLR works in FSK modulation, you can set the Node ID, when the function of the Node ID is turned on, the first byte the transmitter sends is the Node ID of the receiver, and the receiver receives only the Node ID that matches with it. When the function of Node ID is turned on, the module can start the Broadcast ID function; when the Broadcast starts, the receiver can receive data both from the Node ID and the Broadcast. | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''Note''':When this function is on, the interval between the two frames of data is not less than the Td; the first byte of each frame of data is the Node ID or Broadcast ID. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Td (Time Delay)== | ||
+ | TD for FSK modulation | ||
+ | |||
+ | Td is the delay of time between module 1(RXD pin received data) and module 2 (TXD pin transfer data). The time delay (Td) will change with different baud rate, as shown below: | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[File:RTXD.png]] | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[File:BAUD RATE.png]] | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Td for LoRa Modulation== | ||
+ | As air data is transmitted in batches when the module is in LoRa Modulation, if the data exceeds Payload Length and the air rate is less than serial rate, the data receivered will be intermittent. In the transmitter, you can check whether the HM-TRLR buffer is full or not through the STATUS pin. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Air rate is higher than the serial rate, as shown below: | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[File:RTXD.png]] | ||
+ | |||
+ | Air rate is less than the rate of the serial rate, as shown below: | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[File:Trxd 2.png]] | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Testing Conditions: | ||
+ | |||
+ | 1. Spread Factor = 9 | ||
+ | |||
+ | 2. Singal Band Width = 250 kHz | ||

Node ID Function with FSK
When HM-TRLR works in FSK modulation, you can set the Node ID, when the function of the Node ID is turned on, the first byte the transmitter sends is the Node ID of the receiver, and the receiver receives only the Node ID that matches with it. When the function of Node ID is turned on, the module can start the Broadcast ID function; when the Broadcast starts, the receiver can receive data both from the Node ID and the Broadcast.
Note:When this function is on, the interval between the two frames of data is not less than the Td; the first byte of each frame of data is the Node ID or Broadcast ID.
Td (Time Delay)
TD for FSK modulation
Td is the delay of time between module 1(RXD pin received data) and module 2 (TXD pin transfer data). The time delay (Td) will change with different baud rate, as shown below:
Td for LoRa Modulation
As air data is transmitted in batches when the module is in LoRa Modulation, if the data exceeds Payload Length and the air rate is less than serial rate, the data receivered will be intermittent. In the transmitter, you can check whether the HM-TRLR buffer is full or not through the STATUS pin.
Air rate is higher than the serial rate, as shown below:
Air rate is less than the rate of the serial rate, as shown below:
Testing Conditions:
1. Spread Factor = 9
2. Singal Band Width = 250 kHz
3. Code Rate = 1
4. PayLoad = 32 bytes
