When testing, it's important not to transmit on unlicensed frequencies. Emissions can be eliminated by replacing the RF amplifier with a jumper between pins 1 and 3, and terminating the load at the antenna connection. The amplifier is an SOT-89 device just above the "-" terminal of B3. To access the RF chain, the shield housing may need to be temporarily removed. Also remove the bias feed resistor just below the "L104" marking. Then, remove the transmitter antenna from the "ANT1" connections. Use a 50 ohm resistor across the two terminals to provide a terminating load and eliminate any further transmission. Near-field reception is still possible after making these changes. | When testing, it's important not to transmit on unlicensed frequencies.

==Instruction Timing Tables== | |||
These are based on the ST Visual Develop 4.3.12 Simulator. Hopefully it is accurate. I've only done the instructions needed for writing a software UART, since the hardware UART doesn't seem to be brought out on the edge-connector. | |||
