Thread: Transmitting Wireless Protocols

Some questions spring to mind:
What protocol?
What model of PIC?
What model of Wireless module?
Does the manufacturer of the Wireless module not have some examples of how to use it?

How much C programming experience do you have?
How much assembler do you know?
Have you ever programmed something that talks directly to hardware devices?

Unfortunately, I don't think answering these questions will give you a direct answer, but perhaps they will at least give us something we can work with - as your current question is a bit like me walking into a car mechanics shop asking "How do I put a turbo on my engine?" - to achieve that I would at least have to have:
- prior experience in modifying engines
- a decent workshop with sufficient tools
- plenty of time.

Now that you have answered the first two, perhaps can you answer the other 6 questions I asked?

It may not be very difficult to write the code for someone who has decent experience, but if you have never written code for hardware before, I think you may need several weeks to get it right.

I would think that if they want to sell at least a few, they do have some examples. However, they may of course assume that the user has some idea of how to program a serial port, as the prototype/sample board that they show in the datasheet appears to have a 9-pin DSUB that would connect to a PC, so my guess would be that any sample software is just a windows/linux program to send an receive data via the serial port API.

Further, just sending bytes on a serial link over RF is not necessarily a good idea. For data safety you'd need SOME sort of protocol and verification of the data.

There is no standard way to do that. You need to look into the specs of that particular Atmel part, and how the serial port of that device works.

Perhaps writing in English would help.
What the hell does "i jz wanna modify it to connect wif" mean?

Do you understand the concept of "There is no standard way to do this" - there isn't a magical function that does this for you, unless someone else has the same type of device and has already written one.

Fortunately, there are still challenges of writing code for some things. Otherwise I (and my wife and two children) would be out of a job -> no money -> no mortgage being paid -> homeless.
