Demo Source Code Validity #2

I purchased your USB Lora SX1272 device and am looking at your source code. Based on either the Arduino or Python examples I don't see anything more than just send/receiving test datasets in there. The ifroglab.py Python library has root functions for sending/receiving and actually it just appears to be reading/writing to the UART serial port.

Where is the source code or API for actually setting parameters in the device? For example, I am in the USA so I need to set the Lora frequency to be 915.0 MHz. An Arduino shield I have on another host has those types of settings in their library, as well as setting transmit power and other things.

From what I see, the source code for IL-LORA1272 just appears to be a test wrapper over the standard UART serial functionality...

Still looking for some feedback. As I alluded to in the comment above, based on the demo source code all I see is send/receive commands to serial UART. Where/how do I manage the config settings of the SX1272 chip? If I need to define the frequency, power value, etc. where is this referenced in this GitHub project? @powenko can you please reply?

Please disregard. On my own I found out you are sending hex commands to the UART to define the LoRa settings. And issue the various other commands. So I'm at a point where I can perform some end to end testing.
