Hi,
We are trying to get this LoRa module : ```
https://docs.m5stack.com/en/module/lora868
working in a M5Core2. We realize that this module is no longer supported. But we have a lot of them operational in the field, and for several reasons we need to upgrade from M5Stack the grey on to M5Core2.
I have included our testing code. We are using the M5_SX127X.h which works great with the M5Stack grey one.
We also updated the pins to the Core2 (when the LoRa module is stcked on the Core 2.
This piece of code tells us that SPI is started:
if (SPI.begin(LORA_SCLK, LORA_MISO, LORA_MOSI,-1)) // SCK, MISO, MOSI, SS
{ Serial.println("Fine");} else {Serial.println("Not fine");}
We are not sure about this one : LoRa.setSPIFrequency(300000); // Not sure , we tried different values
also left this out, to no avail.
The software hangs inside this call LoRa.begin(LORA_FREQ) , which looks like the SPI transmission with the LoRa device hangs. But we have no idea. Double checked the pin assignments, we beleive they are correct.
Anyone a suggestion how to get this LoRa module working on an M5Core2?
Thanks
