Introduced consistent preferences for external LoRa FEM RX and TX gain settings in NodePrefs. Updated companion MyMesh to apply these settings during initialization and transmission. Added unit tests to verify the round-trip serialization of these new preferences.
PA PL1 re-targets the PA's DC-DC supply rail rather than selecting a
logic-level gain, and the serial CLI is serviced on every main-loop pass
regardless of whether a transmit is in flight. A `set radio.fem.txgain`
write could therefore move the rail mid-transmit, while the SX1262 was
still driving the PA at full input power.
Record the requested level in setPAGainEnable() and drive the pin from
setTxModeEnable(), which runs from onBeforeTransmit() ahead of
startTransmit(). The level only matters while transmitting, so deferring
costs nothing.
Document that the pref is saved immediately but applied at the next
transmit, so `get radio.fem.txgain` can lead the hardware until then.
The room server never supported RX boosted gain, while the repeater
does. Three consequences on SX1262/SX1268 boards:
- boosted gain was never applied to the radio at boot, so a room server
ran in power-saving RX mode while an identical repeater ran boosted -
a real receive-sensitivity difference with nothing pointing at it
- _prefs.rx_boosted_gain was never initialised (the prefs are memset to
0 before defaults are set), so it defaulted to off
- 'set radio.rxgain on' replied "Error: unsupported" but CommonCLI had
already written the value to prefs and saved them, so a stale setting
survived reboot and was never applied
Mirror the repeater's implementation: initialise the pref default under
the same USE_SX1262/USE_SX1268 and SX126X_RX_BOOSTED_GAIN guards, apply
it during radio init, and override setRxBoostedGain() so the CLI reports
success and takes effect.
Built Heltec_v3_room_server (SX1262) and LilyGo_T3S3_sx1276_room_server
(guards compile out cleanly).
Extract the inline cursor-walk in handleRegionCmd into file-local
helpers (skipSpaces, rtrimSpaces, takeToken, splitNameJump,
processRegionDefSegment), grouped immediately above the consumer.
Behavior is identical; addresses PR #2540 review feedback on
readability.
Tighten the region def docs: collapse five Note callouts into three
grouped paragraphs (Behavior / Existing regions / Limits), add a
case-sensitivity caveat plus an error example, note the cursor reset
between split commands, and use generic placeholder names.
Add a new command `region bulk` for defining region hierarchies in a single line. This command allows users to create multiple regions in a single message. Updated the documentation to include usage examples and detailed parameter descriptions.
- Trigger noise floor calibration every 2s and AGC reset every 30s in main loop.
- Reorder loop to match Dispatcher: calibrate + radio.loop() before AGC reset
and recvRaw() so RSSI is never sampled right after startReceive().
- Update protocol doc with calibration intervals and typical noise floor range.
- Variant platformio.ini updates (heltec_v3, rak4631).
- Introduced new commands for retrieving statistics: CMD_GET_STATS_CORE, CMD_GET_STATS_RADIO, and CMD_GET_STATS_PACKETS.
- Implemented corresponding response handling methods to format and send statistics data.
- Updated MyMesh constructor to initialize new member variables for managing statistics.
- Included StatsFormatHelper for formatting statistics replies.
