About

This is a manual test application for the Microchip ATA8020E Sigfox module.

Usage

This application provides a sigfox shell command to interact with the device. Use the subcommands to perform common Sigfox operations:

• sigfox info returns the Atmel and Sigfox versions of the module
• sigfox keys returns the ID and PAC keys used to activate the device in the Sigfox cloud backend at https://backend.sigfox.com/activate.
• sigfox tx <payload> sends a payload to the Sigfox backend. The payload can be either a frame (e.g a string with 12 characters max) or a bit (e.g 0 or 1)
• sigfox tx_rx <payload> is the same as the previous but after sending the payload, it waits for incoming message sent from the backend

Examples:

• Read the internal keys of the module:

    > sigfox keys
    ID: 00000000
    PAC: 0000000000000000

• Send a bit value to the backend:

    > sigfox tx 1
    Bit sent with success

• Send a string message to the backend:

    > sigfox tx This\ is\ RIOT
    Message sent with success
