Question about APC220 Radio Communication Module
The Crusher 2012-05-20 02:19:55 32094 Views39 Replies Hi.
I have bougth one APC220 Radio Communication Module, but have a question about it already. What should I do with the EN pin? I am going to connect it to a Arduino Pro 5V 16MHz.
Should I connect 5V to it? what is the pin for?

2012-05-22 14:24:10 Ok. Thanks again.
And I guess that the TX pin goes to the RX pin on the arduino and the RX pin on the TX pin on the arduino? Or is it TX to TX and RX to RX?
Is it some wrong settings in the program? I add a screenshot of the settings it has now. The Crusher

Ok, so the EN pin works the same if I let it disconnected or connect 5V, and it does not make any difference? If so, I just connect 5V to it.

Yes

But, another question. On the wiki the SET pin is connected to GPIO, but my arduino has no port like this. So what should I connect that one to?

That pin is used for setting some internal parameters.
You don't need to connect it to be able to use the module. Jose

I fixed the os issue on the computer. One of the modules is on the arduino and the other on my pc.

Exactly, the operating system issue is just in case you are using the module from the computer, if you are using it directly from Arduino you can ignore that. :)
If pin EN is disconnected it will be enabled. Check the wiki for the exact voltage, but HIGH should be 5v. The wiki says something bigger than 1.5.
In case you use Low powered arduino, which uses 3.3v, then high would be 3.3v. Jose
