Detailed Description

Client for APRS communication.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

APRSClient() [1/2]

APRSClient::APRSClient ( AX25Client *  ax )

explicit

Constructor for "classic" mode using AX.25/AFSK.

Parameters

ax	Pointer to the instance of AX25Client to be used for APRS.

APRSClient() [2/2]

APRSClient::APRSClient ( PhysicalLayer *  phy )

explicit

Constructor for LoRa mode.

Parameters

phy	Pointer to the wireless module providing PhysicalLayer communication.

Member Function Documentation

begin()

int16_t APRSClient::begin	(	char	sym,
		char *	callsign = NULL,
		uint8_t	ssid = 0,
		bool	alt = false
	)

Initialization method.

Parameters

sym	APRS symbol to be displayed.
callsign	Source callsign. Required and only used for APRS over LoRa, ignored in classic mode.
ssid	Source SSID. Only used for APRS over LoRa, ignored in classic mode, defaults to 0.
alt	Whether to use the primary (false) or alternate (true) symbol table. Defaults to primary table.

sendFrame()

int16_t APRSClient::sendFrame	(	char *	destCallsign,
		uint8_t	destSSID,
		char *	info
	)

lon	Geographical longitude, positive for east, negative for west.
heading	Heading in degrees.
speed	Speed in knots.
type	Mic-E message type - see Mic-E message types..
telem	Pointer to telemetry array (either 2 or 5 bytes long). NULL when telemetry is not used.
telemLen	Telemetry length, 2 or 5. 0 when telemetry is not used.
grid	Maidenhead grid locator. NULL when not used.
status	Status message to send. NULL when not used.
alt	Altitude to send. RADIOLIB_APRS_MIC_E_ALTITUDE_UNUSED when not used.

		char *	lat,
		char *	lon,
		char *	msg = NULL,
		char *	time = NULL
	)

Transmit position.

Parameters

destCallsign	Destination station callsign.
destSSID	Destination station SSID.
lat	Latitude as a null-terminated string.
lon	Longitude as a null-terminated string.
msg	Message to be transmitted. Defaults to NULL (no message).
time	Position timestamp. Defaults to NULL (no timestamp).

Returns

Status Codes

useRepeaters()

void APRSClient::useRepeaters	(	char **	repeaterCallsigns,
		uint8_t *	repeaterSSIDs,
		uint8_t	numRepeaters
	)
