Software / GCS
Support:

The software solution is an open source development called
“SiK”.  It has been re implemented to suit the new processor
architecture available on the 32bit ARM processor core.  A boot loader and
interface is available for further development and field upgrade of the modem
firmware via the serial port.

Most parameters are configurable via AT commands, Eg. baud
rate (air/uart), frequency band, power levels.

Integrated support for configuring the RFD900 radios is
supported by APM Planner.

The default settings are at 57600 baud, N, 8, 1, and 64k air
data rate.

Software Features
Include:

• Frequency hopping spread spectrum (FHSS)
• Transparent serial link
• Point to Point, or Multipoint networking
• Configuration by simple AT commands for local radio, RT
  commands for remote radio
• User configurable serial data rates and air data rates
• Error correction routines, Mavlink protocol framing (user
  selectable).
• Mavlink radio status reporting (Local RSSI, Remote RSSI,
  Local Noise, Remote Noise).
• Automatic duty cycle throttling based on radio temperature
  to avoid overheating.

Compliance:

• The RFD900 is designed to be compliant with the following
  standards:
• FCC Part 15.247 (Frequency hopping and digitally modulated
  intentional radiators)
• AS/NZS 4268:2012 (Radio equipment and systems – short range
  devices)
• The modem is designed for system integrators who will
  integrate the modem into their own projects and product prototypes.  The
  user is responsible for compliance with local regulations for radio
  transmitters.

Applications:

• Long-range remote control (RC) via PPM
• Ground control station (GCS) telemetry gateway over WiFi
