# CubeCellRepeater
|
|
|
|
This is the code for a simple repeater node for the meshtastic project: https://github.com/meshtastic
|
|
|
|
The actual node can be one of the LoRa CubeCell nodes by Heltec Automation: https://github.com/HelTecAutomation/ASR650x-Arduino/
|
|
|
|
Notes:
|
|
|
|
Intended for use with the platform.io IDE. The platformio.ini for this project should contain "monitor_speed=115200" to use the built-in serial monitor.
|
|
((( Should work with Arduino IDE - rename main.cpp to a valid Arduino sketch name (e.g. "CubeCellRepeater.ino") and put all files to a directory with the same name ("CubeCellRepeater"), then import project. )))

|
Will repeat packets ONCE. To prevent flooding a short list of received packet IDs is checked against the ID of the current packet.
|
|
Keep in mind that re-sending packets will cause the initial sender to assume that the packet is "received" or at least in the mesh.
|
|
If no other meshtastic node is in range of either the node or the repeater, the message will still be shown as received.
|
|
You can use this for range tests.
|
|
|
|
Will work with most packets meeting the radio settings, but the serial output is based on the assumption that the node receives meshtastic packets.
|
|
Minimum size for none-Meshtastic packets is 14 bytes.
|
|
|
|
"#define SILENT" to stop serial output.
|
|
|
|
Modify radio settings for your own channels:
|
|
|
|
Edit the CONFIGURATION block in MeshRadio.h
|
|
|
|
e.g.
|
|
HW_VERSION_EU865 - defines your region (to EU). For US, use HW_VERSION_US, for CN use HW_VERSION_CN etc.
|
|
|
|
MESHTASTIC_SPEED 3 - defines your speed to "very long range". Other values are: 0 = short range, 1 = medium range, 2 = long range, 3 = very long range
|
|
|
|
MESHTASTIC_NAME[12] = {"Default"} - sets your Channel Name, but without "-Xy" suffix , e.g. use "Test" instead of "Test-A"
|
|
|
|
TX_OUTPUT_POWER 14 - sets output power to 14 dB. Keep in mind the maximums set by law and the hardware
