Software / GCS Support:

The software solution is an open source development called "SiK". It has been re implemented to suit the new processor architecture available on the 32bit ARM processor core. A boot loader and interface is available for further development and field upgrade of the modem firmware via the serial port. 

Most parameters are configurable via AT commands, Eg. baud rate (air/uart), frequency band, power levels. 

El soporte integrado para configurar las radios RFD900 es compatible con APM Planner. 
The default settings are at 57600 baud, N, 8, 1, and 200k air data rate.

Software features include:

• Frequency hopping spread spectrum (FHSS)
• Transparent serial link
• Point to Point, or Multipoint networking
• Configuration by simple AT commands for local radio, RT commands for remote radio
• User configurable serial data rates and air datarates
• Error correction routines, Mavlink protocol framing (user selectable)
• Mavlink radio status reporting (Local RSSI, Remote RSSI, Local Noise, Remote Noise)
• Automatic antenna diversity switching on a packet basis in realtime
• Automatic duty cycle throttling based on radio temperature to avoid overheating
