The HumRCTM Series Transceiver can be completely
configured in hardware, so no programming or serial interface
is required for basic remote control applications. However, a
UART interface provides more control and advanced features.
Hardware Controlled Operation
• Send a control message by taking a status line input high
• Pair modules so that they work together
• Set status lines as inputs and outputs in groups of 4 lines
• Enable acknowledgements
• Set the transmitter output power
• Power down the module
• Set all status line outputs to be latched or momentary
