Overview of #936 Ready2Run Long Range System


  • 16 Long Range Smart Receivers
    • A 16 Long Range Smart receiver is nothing more than four standard 4 SPI Long Range Smart receivers connected on one board
    • When you set the start address, each 16 LR Smart receiver will consume 4 sequential addresses. For example, if your starting address is zero (both switched down/off), then the board has the addresses 0,1,2,3 even though the HinksPix PRO interface only shows address 0 - internally the controller is sending data to receivers 0,1,2 and 3.
    • Outputs on the 16 LR Smart receiver map over as follows
