RF24Network_config.h¶

Defines¶

NETWORK_DEFAULT_ADDRESS 04444¶

A reserved valid address for use with RF24Mesh (when a mesh node requests an assigned address)

NETWORK_MULTICAST_ADDRESS 0100¶

A sentinel address value for multicasting purposes.

NETWORK_AUTO_ROUTING 070¶

A sentinel value for internally indicating that the frame should be automatically routed as necessary.

SLOW_ADDR_POLL_RESPONSE 10¶

Adds a delay to node prior to transmitting NETWORK_ADDR_RESPONSE messages.

By default this is undefined for speed. This defined number of milliseconds is only applied to the master node when replying to a child trying to connect to the mesh network.

Note

It is advised to define this if any child node is running CircuitPython because the execution speed in pure python is inherently slower than it is in C++.

RF24NetworkMulticast¶

When defined, this will allow the use of multicasting messages.

MAX_PAYLOAD_SIZE 144¶

Maximum size of fragmented network frames and fragmentation cache.

Note

This buffer can now be any size > 24. Previously this needed to be a multiple of 24 (changed in v1.0.15).

Note

If used with RF24Ethernet, this value is used to set the buffer sizes.

Note

For nodes driven by an ATTiny based chip, this is set to 72. However, defining DISABLE_FRAGMENTION truncates the actual transmitted payload to 24 bytes (which is also the default behavior on ATTiny devices).

MAIN_BUFFER_SIZE (MAX_PAYLOAD_SIZE + FRAME_HEADER_SIZE)¶

The allocated size of the incoming frame buffer.

This is the user-cache, where incoming data is stored. Data is stored using Frames: Header (8 bytes) + Message_Size (2 bytes) + Message_Data (? bytes)

Note

Over-The-Air (OTA) transmissions don’t include the message size in the transmitted packet.

ENABLE_DYNAMIC_PAYLOADS¶

Enable dynamic payloads - If using different types of nRF24L01 modules, some may be incompatible when using this feature

NUM_PIPES 6¶

The number of ‘pipes’ available for addressing in the current device Networks with NRF24L01 devices only have 6 pipes NRF52x networks support up to 8 pipes
