Seems that reading in ISR does not work for sx1268 module, I'll try to find some generic solution to that. Unfortunately, do not have this module to test.

sh123 commented 2 years ago

Please, try with this branch https://github.com/sh123/esp32_loraprs/tree/taskread, it will spawn separate reader task instead of reading in ISR, I'll merge it to master if it works for you.

GabeHC commented 2 years ago

Where are you located? I can get you one for testing. I try to run it on Lilygo T-Beam V1.1. nothing ever heard on it. not even get into ISR. what went wrong with it?

sh123 commented 2 years ago

Can you get working one of these? https://github.com/jgromes/RadioLib/tree/master/examples/SX126x (one board with transmit and one board with receive)

For sx126x you need to set config CFG_LORA_PIN_DIO0 pin to your DIO1 hardware pin and CFG_LORA_PIN_DIO1 pin to your BUSY hardware pin, as it constructs module this way for SX127x:

new Module(config_.LoraPinSs, config_.LoraPinDio0, config_.LoraPinRst, config_.LoraPinDio1)

and SX126x expects second argument to be DIO1 and last argument to be BUSY.

RadioLib is confusing, because it provides support for multiple modules, but there is no common interface (despite common naming), so each module usage requires some tweaks.

I've renamed these DIO0 and DIO1 to A and B, to make them more generic and added comments about SX126x pinouts, please try it out.

GabeHC commented 2 years ago

Yes, It work with RadioLib examples without any problem. Dio0/Dio1, getModemStatus(), getFrequencyError() are all fixed

sh123 commented 2 years ago

Where are your changes, can you point to the branch with your changes (or config file)? If it works with RadioLib examples and does not work with esp32_loraprs, then the only reason is some misconfiguration of pinouts or LoRa parameters mismatch between transmitter and receiver. I've ordered couple of these ebyte e22 SX1262 modules, will try them out, but will take some weeks until they arrive here.

sh123 commented 2 years ago

@GabeHC , received modules need to perform some soldering, will try them out, have you got them working or still having problems with receiving?

GabeHC commented 2 years ago

unfortunately no! I even try it on two TTGO T-Beam, still not working. Tracker uses this one my code is here

GabeHC commented 2 years ago

@GabeHC , received modules need to perform some soldering, will try them out, have you got them working or still having problems with receiving? I suspect it is the getModemStatus() that I have simply return not busy for all cases. It is not transmitting nor receiving!

sh123 commented 2 years ago

I think #if MODULE_NAME == SX1268 statement and others are not gonna work, because SX1268 is a class, I've made some changes to make correct compilation in master, will test when solder module.

Also, RXEN/TXEN switch pins should be specified, they are not 4 and 5, but should be set to real pinouts, I've moved their declaration to config.h, they need to be set to 2 and 4 based on your schematics, otherwise neither transmit, nor receive gonna work, because RadioLib will use wrong pinouts and module TX/RX won't be triggered. Built in LED uses gpio 2, so need to use another pinout or disable heartbeat blinking in main sketch or set to some unused pin.

GabeHC commented 2 years ago

Yes RXEN/TXEN were set to 2,4, and Builtin LED set to 12 in my case.

Following is my config.h

I think CFG_LORA_PIN_B needs to be set to BUSY GPIO pin number as in RadioLib examples instead of RADIOLIB_NC, I'll try later, still soldering module on prototype board.

// SX1262 has the following connections:
// NSS pin:   10
// DIO1 pin:  2
// NRST pin:  3
// BUSY pin:  9
SX1262 radio = new Module(10, 2, 3, 9);

Now it does transmit, but still nothing heard. no mater it is set to Text or Binary mode. seams ISR is not active.

Soldered module, works fine for both RX/TX between E22 and RA-01 modules from master (and with master radiolib) when setting CFG_LORA_USE_ISR to false. Tested as APRS-IS RX/TX iGate, APRSDroid and also with Codec2 Walkie-Talkie app between two modems with digital voice.

Reading in ISR does not work for this module, so need to disable reading in ISR, causes exception, I'll probably completely remove reading is ISR in favor of reading in separate task.

Also, need to figure out how to use CAD on SX126X module, otherwise when there is heavy IS to RF traffic client transmits without checking if channel is busy, for now just set it to busy when reading current packet.

E22 module is so much better than RA-01 for APRS, more stable frequency (could be used on 20.8 kHz channel) and measured output power almost 30 dBm when powered from single cell USB power bank.

IRQ pin is responsible for interrupt, maybe you have LORA_RST defined in arduino so it is not getting defined, try to set explicitly

#define CFG_LORA_PIN_RST    14
#define CFG_LORA_PIN_A         33 
#define CFG_LORA_PIN_B         39

otherwise I do not know what's the problem, this module works fine for me with esp32 devboard

GabeHC commented 2 years ago

That is not it. I saw "LoRa pin definitions are not found, redefining..." during compile.

// lora generic pinouts

also not working!

You cannot set power level to 22 dBm for this module, it sets amplification for sx1268 controller only without amp, amplification must be set to no more than 30 (all gain) dBm - 12 dBm (amplifier) = 18 dBm, I was testing with 2dBm (+ 12 dBm amp) = +14 dBm, https://github.com/jgromes/RadioLib/wiki/High-power-Radio-Modules-Guide

Sorry, I cannot help if this problem is not reproducible for me, it works fine for me from RA-01 to E22, maybe try different ESP module. If it works with RadioLib example then maybe WiFi/Bluetooth initialization causes trouble.

Is this last line a hang? Looks like module just freezes if it cuts the log line. Try to build in client mode without WiFi initialization and receive packets with APRSDroid over Bluetooth, use latest ESP Arduino library, try to swap with different ESP32 dev board, enable "Core Debug Level" to "Verbose" in Arduino ESP options.

GabeHC commented 2 years ago

that is incomplete copy and paste. it kept running but not hearing anything from TTGO tracker.

this is how I setup on "SX126x_Receive_Interrupt" and it works.

SX1268 radio = new Module(5, 33, 14, 39);

and in setup

  radio.begin(438.2, 125.0, 12, 8, SX126X_SYNC_WORD_PRIVATE, 22, 32, 1.8, false);
  radio.setRegulatorDCDC(); 
  radio.autoLDRO();
  radio.setCurrentLimit(140);
  radio.setDio2AsRfSwitch(false);
  radio.explicitHeader();
  radio.setCRC(2);
  radio.setRfSwitchPins(2, 4);
  // set the function that will be called
  // when new packet is received
  radio.setDio1Action(setFlag);
  // start listening for LoRa packets0
  Serial.print(F("LORA Starting to listen ... "));

this is what I got from TTGO tracker

  radio.setCRC(2);

They need to match between devices. Currently, I'm using setCRC(true) ( = 1) also I don't set explicit header mode, I think it should be default, but I can add this call and move some parameters to config so they can be specified.

also sync word is different RADIOLIB_SX126X_SYNC_WORD_PRIVATE is 0x12, but it is set to 0x34, which is RADIOLIB_SX126X_SYNC_WORD_PUBLIC

with current parameters it is not going to work need to change them, next parameters need to match:

Header mode (explicit/implicit)
CRC bytes (1 or 2)
Sync word (0x12 or 0x34)

I'll update code, so they can be specified from config.

sh123 commented 2 years ago

added config.h parameters for these values

Great, it is working now, Sync word is the problem. Thank you so much for the help.

it works for our tracker now, TTGO tracker has a non AX.25 payload warning. Do you know why?

sh123 commented 2 years ago

Good news! I'll change default sample value to 0x12 as it seems to be more correct. 0x34 is used for LoRaWAN networks.

This warning indicates that incoming packet could not be parsed. To be able to process incoming non AX.25 text packets need to set CFG_TEXT_PACKETS to true. Unfortunately, it won't be able to work correctly with both AX.25 and text packets. It can gate both formats, but only one format is supported for transmission, such as digirepeating and IS to RF gating.

AX25 is much more efficient especially with compressed packets than text packets, but other projects do not use AX25 for some reason with AX25 it is possible to use full stack of Linux AX.25 tools.

If you are already using text mode, but it fails for some packets then enable verbose logging, in this case it will print packets char by char, maybe some formats could not be parsed, I did not spend much time on text packet testing as I do not have TTGO tracker and was testing only with APRSDroid text packets.

Polling mode works fine, for interrupt to work, ISR should only set flags, then process incoming data in the main loop.

could you email me your contact information? I would like to provide one of our hardware for you to test with.

Yes, when setting CFG_LORA_USE_ISR to false it will spawn separate ESP task for flag polling, which is set in ISR. Unfortunately, it is sub-optimal for battery powered applications and there is a risk of data loss if polling task blocks for longer period of time. Reading data in ISR works in RA-01 module, but not with E22 module. I talked to RadioLib maintainer about possibility to read and queue data in ISR, but he said that there is no guarantee for all boards and ESP32 flavors. I would like to read and queue data immediately when ISR handles and then process this queue in main or secondary task. Another approach is not to use flag, but use events instead so that polling is not needed.

For me it is easier if you will post verbose packet output from the board, hardware delivery will take weeks and I have to fill form and pay to customs.

I'm closing it for now, as this problem seems to be solved, please, open another task for other issues.
