All things pertaining to wireless and RF links

Hello,

great forum. I recently worked on my own implementation of a wireless setup using the nRF2401. A lot of pitfalls later, things finally seemed to work. Great chip.

Because of the inconvenient routine to put together a chip configuration, I started to write a small helper application for this.

Please check it out and leave some comments either here or in my board.
I'd be happy to receive bug-hints or improvement suggestions.

It is also able to automatically generate C-Code. But see yourself.

Awaiting comments!
Have fun with it.

Pretty slick!

The address width must be in bytes? This would make more sense to me in bits. I'm too lazy to check if the output is correct, but the program looks good!

Thanks for the posting,

Hey, Nathan thanks, but you're of course right,
it's usually set in bits. I am aware of that, but found no
reason at first why somebody would use bits rather than
bytes for addressing. I see if I can include that in the next
version, so that it's going to be closer to the specification.

Thanks for trying out !

Thank you for this utility. But. SW generate wrong RFDR_SB bit. The correct value is: 0 for 250kbps and 1 for 1Mbps.
