Problems on setting Power level
Hi maniacbug,
I have set the nRF24L01+ module power output using this code: radio.setPALevel(RF24_PA_HIGH);
When I then check this using radio.printDetails(); I get Power = LA_MED
Also I believe we are using these mnemonics? "According to 6.5 of the nRF24L01+ specification sheet, they translate to: RF24_PA_MIN=-18dBm, RF24_PA_LOW=-12dBm, RF24_PA_MED=-6dBM, and RF24_PA_HIGH=0dBm."
RF24_PA_MED will not compile as get this message = error: 'RF24_PA_MED' was not declared in this scope. All other mnemonics work.
If I use RF24_PA_MIN ,RF24_PA_LOW, RF24_PA_HIGH, RF24_PA_MAX these all work.
Regards
Gary
if you look at line 24 of RF24.h you will see that 'RF24_PA_MED' is not in the list of option, but I imagine you could add it... but also i think the setPALevel function will need changing too
This is fixed/corrected in my fork. Has been for a long time. On Dec 4, 2013 3:39 PM, "hayden-t" [email protected] wrote:

thanks for pointing this out, i dont think i would have found out otherwise...
hey gcoepland, i just lookeh at your fork, and i see talk of multicast which is something i was interested in adding too. where can i find out more on this ? you mention in commit comments documentation but your doc link just go back maniacs ? it would be good if you had more detail say a list of what you added somewhere and description of some bits. that one reason i wouldnt have found out you had done this, as there are a few forks of RF24 and its hard to get an overview of what each one is about or has added/changed...
For now, comments are the docs. It's what the online documentation is built from.
Also check out my three blog posts on using these radios.
