The items discussed in this chapter include:
2.3
The SX1211 Starter Kit is an environment for the SEMTECH SX1211 transceiver. The SX1211SK
allows the demonstration of a two way communication between two radio boards, to perform practical
"demonstration", "range" and "site survey" testing but also to evaluate the RF transceiver.
SX1211SK performs basic functions such as modulation schemes selection (FSK / OOK),
configuration in transmitter, receiver or sleep mode, plus features such as frequency deviation
selection, filter bandwidth and output power management.
This document covers the basic setup and operation for the SX1211SK environment.
