#ARDUINO APRS and DRA818 module library # F4GOH Anthony f4goh@orange.fr

Mars 2016

Use this library freely with Arduino 1.0.6

Update protocols

• APRS AFSK AX25 on freq1 ans freq2
• RTTY 45 bauds on freq1 + freq shift
• Hellschreiber on freq1 (see command "Set pin number and Frequency" above)

Installation

To use the DRAPRS library:

• Go to https://github.com/f4goh/DRAPRS, click the Download ZIP button and save the ZIP file to a convenient location on your PC.

• Uncompress the downloaded file. This will result in a folder containing all the files for the library, that has a name that includes the branch name, usually DRAPS-master.

• Rename the folder to DRAPRS.

• Copy the renamed folder to the Arduino sketchbook\libraries folder.

• you must add Arduino TimerOne library :
  Go to http://playground.arduino.cc/Code/Timer1

Usage notes

To use 4x20 characters LCD Display, the LiquidCrystal_I2C and WIRE libraries must also be included.

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
#include <TimerOne.h>
#include <Wire.h>
#include <LiquidCrystal_I2C.h>
#include <DRAPRS.h>

Change your callsign into unsigned char array

change GPS speed to 4800 bauds if you need

gps.begin(9600);

Set pin number and Frequency

 Beacon.begin(bfPin, ledPin, 1200, 2200, 350);   //analog pin, led pin, freq1, freq2, shift freq

DRA818 speed must be 9600 bauds

dra_serial.begin(9600);

change frequency into dra_serial.println...

// Format˖AT+DMOSETGROUP=BWˈTX_FˈRX_FˈTx_subaudioˈSQˈRx_subaudio
// AT+DMOSETGROUP=0,144.8000,144.8000,0000,4,0000

{
char ack[3];

digitalWrite(PwDw, HIGH);

dra_serial.println(F("AT+DMOSETGROUP=0,144.8000,144.8000,0000,4,0000"));

                               ack[2]=dra_serial.read();

}
