RFM9x - how to program

Post by timkane »

I recently bought a couple of Radio FeatherWing RFM9x 900MHz boards from Adafruit. I apparently ordered the wrong boards as they did not come with a USB connector. I'd rather use them than try to return them. I am using the Arduino programming environment for writing sketches. My question is, how do I program these boards without the USB connector? Thanks for any help.

sounds like you got the wings not the feathers. you need to attach them to a feather, they cannot be programmed on their own!

Thanks for your reply. I don't know what "wings" only means or implies. I will take a look, see what I can find.

On the bottom of the PCB I have it reads "feather" and "RFM Radio FeatherWing"

yes you have the wing - it plugs *into* a mainboard (feather) you canno program it on its own
