When I wanted to test my Nrf24L01 I wanted to be sure of it working fine, so I used this code for an Arduino Uno:
#include <SPI.h>
#include <RF24.h>
#include "printf.h"
#define RF_CS 9
#define RF_CSN 7
RF24 radio(RF_CS, RF_CSN);
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
printf_begin();
radio.begin();
radio.printDetails();
}
void loop() {
radio.printDetails();
delay(5000);
}
The thing is when I opened my Serial, I got this each 5 second:
STATUS = 0xff RX_DR=1 TX_DS=1 MAX_RT=1 RX_P_NO=7 TX_FULL=1
RX_ADDR_P0-1 = 0x0000000000 0x0000000000
RX_ADDR_P2-5 = 0xff 0xff 0x00 0x00
TX_ADDR = 0x0000000000
RX_PW_P0-6 = 0xff 0x00 0x00 0xff 0xff 0x00
EN_AA = 0xff
EN_RXADDR = 0xff
RF_CH = 0xff
RF_SETUP = 0xff
CONFIG = 0xff
DYNPD/FEATURE = 0xff 0x00
Data Rate = 1MBPS
Model = nRF24L01
CRC Length = 16 bits
PA Power = PA_MAX
Which apparently means that there must be something wrong with the connection, as far as I know .
noting that i have this Nrf24L01 with 10 pins, so i tried to attach it just like the following picture shows :
So I tried to plug it in with the Arduino just like this:
What was the mistake?
