Testing and Certification

These endpoints are intended for hardware testing, qualification, and certification. They are not intended for use in productive deployments.

Note

These endpoints require the recon interface to be enabled.

RX Test

Computes the peak power and frequency of the receiver. Limited to the center frequency of the RX (default: 868.13 MHz +- 100 kHz). The center frequency gets notched out, so it is advised to use a CW tone 10 kHz or more away from the center frequency (e.g. 868.2 MHz).

POST /cgi-bin/rxtest

Request body can be empty or {}.

Field Type Description
status string ok or error
peakfreq float Peak frequency in Hz
