Wireless Long Range RF Test - STM32CubeMonitor - two boards NUCLEO-WL55JC - how to make tests with t

[PawelKan]

Hallo,

I have two NUCLEO-WL55JC boards with dedicated FW (LoRaWAN\LoRaWAN_AT_Slave) for making some tests with STM32CubeMonitor. Everything works fine, tests are possible without problems, but these two boards are connected to the same computer. That's why I cannot say, that I am doing some long range tests - rather very short range tests... The range is limited by the length of two USB cables (between each Nucleo and USB port).

 

So - the question is: Is there possible, to make real long range test with two boards? IIf yes, how to do it? Do I need two persons with two computers (each board connected to each computer), calling by the phone to each other and starting the dedicated tests - what should be the procedure? One starts RX Test and the other Tx Test (for example for RF Test Tone(CW))?

Or maybe do I need only one PC and one board connected to it, and the second Nucleo will work in automated way? 

Regards

Paul

Hello @PawelKan

STM32CubeMonitor is designed to monitor both locally or remotely from a web browser using the IP address of the host PC. see main principles of STM32CubeMonitor .

In order to perform your test, you need:

• one PC connected to a nucleo
• a second PC connected to a second nucleo in another place

Both PC should run STM32CubeMonitor and on one of them you should be able to connect remotly to the second one through a web brother and monitor the remote device.
