By default, the DE and RE lines are asserted LOW, allowing the reception of
characters from the RS485 differential bus. The DE and RE lines are asserted
HIGH only when one or several characters ha ve to be transmitted over the
RS485 differential bus: when a radio frame is demodulated, the lines are
asserted HIGH and then the data extra cted from the radio frame are sent to
the module TXD line and therefore to the RS485 differential bus. When the
last character has been transmitted over the RS485 differential bus, the lines
are asserted LOW.

Radio rate selection
For 869 MHz version, the Radio rate selection is automatically done when
setting the channel number:
If you choose a channel number ≥ 14 (Narrow Band), the radio rate will
automatically switch to 10 kbit/s.
If you choose a channel number < 14, the module will operate in the Wide
Band configuration. The radio rate will switch automatically to 57600 bit/s.

NB
Particular attention is required for product installation. In the case where
several links must works in the same area (independently of the channel
positions), the minimum distance between 2 products belonging to different
radio links is 3 meters. Even with this precaution (depending of the product
environment), channel rejection could be reduced.
RSSI reading
The RSSI (Received Strength Signal Indicator) gives an indication for the
received power level.
It could be accessed with AT commands (ATS230?<cr> command).
• The RSSI level is only a n indication. Use this level with care due to
the dispersion between components.
• The operating temperature could also have an impact on these
dispersions.
• The RSSI level could also indicate the potential presence of any
jammer in the used channel.
• The RSSI is a necessary but not sufficient condition to
obtain a correct reception.

Transceiver operating mode
Two operating modes are available :
1. Command mode (usage of AT commands)
2. Transceiver or normal mode (serial data are transmitted on radio link)
At power up the transceiver is in transceiver mode: it is able to send / receive
data to / from the radio link according to its current parameter configuration.
Command mode
The command mode is used to read and update the modem configuration
registers using AT command.
N
OTE
The AT command can be locked using ATPWD command.
In command mode, the radio is inhibited (reception and transmission),
excepted when using test command.
Entering command mode : issues on the serial link a +++ sequence. The
sequence of 3 consecutive + characters is accepted only if no character have
been seen before and after the +++ sequence. Register (S214) defines the
silence duration.
Tips 1: if you are using a terminal (such as Hyperterm), you have to send
the +++ sequence using a text file (first create a text file containing only the
+++ characters, and then use in Hyperterm the command “Send text file” in
the “Transfer menu”)

Transceiver mode
In transceiver mode, two protocols are available:
1. Transparent mode, without flow control.
2. Addressed mode, with flow control (see register S216)
The communication is always half-duplex. The radio transmission is proces sed
prior to the radio reception (when the transceiver is sending a radio frame, it
is not able to decode any incoming radio frame).
If no data are sent on the serial link, the modem is waiting for radio
reception. Each radio frame sent by another modem is received and the
validated data extracted from the radio frame are sent on the serial link.
When the last character has been sent on the serial link, it is possible to send
an answer at least 100 µs (minimum) after the end of this last character.
All the data received on the serial link are encapsulated in a radio frame.
The radio frame format depends on the used protocol.
When acting as transceiver, the radio frame transmission always starts under
the following conditions :
Detection of a silence on the serial link (greater than S217) after the
reception of the latest character.
Or when the number of received characters from the serial link is higher or
equal to the maximum radio frame size (S218).

Transparent mode
In transparent mode, the modem acts as a wire serial link. It means that
alternately, the modem sends on the radio the data received from the serial
link and sends on the serial link the data received from the radio.
The radio frame format is :
• <Preamble><synchro>DATA <postambule>.
Preamble, synchronisation and postambule are used for the radio
reception.
Addressed mode
In transmission mode, data received on the seria l lin k are sent on the radio
link with the following format :
• <Preamble><synchro><Address> DATA <postambule>.
Preamble, synchronisation and postambule are used for the radio
reception.
• The Address field is set up with S256 value (LSB first).
• In reception mode: The <Address> field of the radio frame is
checked with the reception address (S252)
• If the radio frame address ma tches the transceiver reception
address (S252), DATA (and only DATA) are transmitted on the
Otherwise received data are silently discarded.

Transceiver state machine
When operating in transceiver mode the 'RF transmission' state machine is :
Idle state of the transceiver : by default the transceiver is waiting for
incoming data on the RS232 link and for incoming radio frame on the radio
link.
The RS232 link has a higher priority than the radio link (if a radio frame is
demodulated meanwhile some RS232 characters are detected on the serial

link, the radio frame will be discarded and the RS232 incoming data will be
processed).
Processing incoming RS232 data : the incoming RS232 data are
internally buffered. The buffered data are sent in a radio frame (the RF
modulation is started) when almost one of the following conditions occurs:
if a break (silence greater than S217 timeout) is detected on the
incoming serial flow (no more data to be sent).
if the radio buffer size is reached (the number of buffered
characters are equal or greater than the S218 size).
Processing incoming radio frame : the valid data are extracted from the
incoming radio frame and internally buffered. The buffered data are sent on
the fly to the RS232 module output.

At power-up, the previous transceiver configuration is restored from E2PROM
(non volatile) to RAM. The registers are located in RAM registers, any
modification is performed on RAM registers: To save current register
configurations, it is necessary to use the AT&W <cr> command (If not, the
updated parameters are lost in case of power shortage).

streaming mode without flow control. Be careful Î using a serial rate greater
to the radio rate must produce character losts if the flow c ontrol is not used.
If the radio rate is equal to the serial ra te, the radio frame is longer than the
serial frame, due to radio protocol overhead; but the radio overhead will be
generated only when the radio transmission begins Î this overhead will be
absorbed by internal buffer size.
For example, if the current radio rate is 10 kbit/s, a serial rate of 9 600
should be used without flow control, while using a serial rate of 19 200 (with
10 kbit/s for the radio rate) will produce data overrun.
For avoiding character lost, you should :
1. use the flow control (addressed mode with hardware
handshake)
2. or use a serial rate lower or equal to the rad i o rate
3. or limit the size of serial data to the maximum size of the

1. A standby mode, with a short wake-up time.
2. A low power consumption mode with a longer wake-up
time (including supply stabilisation and radio calibration)

Enable Low Power down mode :
The low power down mode is managed only after its activation. Applying a
High level on the PWD signal when the mode has not been activated has no
effect Î the module is still running in its current mode.
In command mode, send the AT command ATS232=2<cr>. After this, a High
level applied on PWD signal during transceiver mode allows the module to
enter the low power consumption mode.
Disable Low Power down mode
In command mode, enter the AT command ATS232=0<cr> the S232 register
is not applicable

ANNEX 1 : Alternative mounting
If the module cannot be plugged directly on the motherboard, it is possible to
mount a connector. However, we do not re commend this use to keep the
radio stability of the module.
