Channel configuration
Two different channel configurations are available per radio on the VERA-P1, which can be configured
by using the
chconfig LLC plugin via the Control Channel (CCH) or Service Channel (SCH). The plugin
uses the LLC Remote API to set up, start, stop, or get the CCH/SCH configurations.
The following example configures and starts the control channel (radio channel configuration 0) on
radio A, channel 184, using both the antennas:
$ ./llc chconfig -s -w CCH -c 184 -r a -a 3

Transmitter test
The
test-tx LLC plugin is used to transmit a burst of packets. The CCH or SCH must be configured
prior to transmitting a burst and their settings define the default configuration for the packets.
The following example transmits 100 test packets of 200 bytes length on channel 184 and both
antennas, with the output power set to 40 and modulation set to ½ QPSK:
