GENERAL INFORMATION

*** Please read this manual thoroughly before connecting and configuring Seagull #RADIO ***

Seagull #RADIO is a fully configurable transceiver module designed for use in platforms where unrestricted data size and continuous

transmission/receiving is required, as well as long range - stretching up to 6 kilometers!

#RADIO is perfect solution to use as a telemetry module to transmit data back to the ground control software from your Flight

Controller or use the modules with Seagull #GPK to handle RTCM data streams in order to achieve RTK FIX.

#RADIO features:

•Unlimited size data packages transfer/receive!

•Adjustable output power from 100mW to 1WATT

•Adjustable frequency and target addresses

•Air data rate up to 168kbps

•Range up to 6km

•UART Interface

FLIGHT CONTROLLER INTEGRATION

#RADIO modules can be used to replace your current telemetry radios for increased operation distance and overall performance.

#RADIO kit comes with two JST-GH cables that can be used to interface to flight controllers. Make sure that the #RADIO and your

Flight Controller are operating at same baud rate.

NOTE: Modification to cables might be needed for compatibility with Pixhawk 1. When connecting to the Flight Controller all 4 wires

from #RADIO have to be used for correct telemetry operation.

Below is a representation of Pixhawk 1 and Pixhawk 2.1 port outputs for wiring guidance.

INTEGRATION

#RADIO kit comes with two types of GH-JST cables, depending on the configuration and the direction of the transmission.

GPK Rover - operation is selected please connect GREEN sleeve GH-JST cable to your radio platform.

GPK Base - operation is selected please connect PURPLE sleeve GH-JST cable to your radio platform.

CONFIGURATION

GENERAL

#RADIO modules are configured through a WINDOWS application.

*** Download Seagull_RADIO_config_v3.45.exe from HERE ***

To configure the module simply launch the "Seagull RADIO.exe", plug in the USB cable into the radio and PC. Choose the PORT that

the #RADIO is connected to on your PC and click "OPEN PORT". Next HOLD DOWN the button that is on the #RADIO to enter

configuration mode and click "GET PARAM". Set your desired values and HOLD DOWN the button on the #RADIO module –then click

"SET PARAM". All done now your #RADIO module is configured with your desired settings.

SETTINGS AND VALUES TABLE

SETTINGS NAME

RANGE

DESCRIPTION

UART RATE

Baud rate

1200 - 115200

115200

Baudrate setting for communication with the interfaced device

UART PARITY

Parity

8N1, 8O1, 8E1

8N1

UART mode can be different between communication parties

AIR RATE

Air data rate

2.5 –168kbps

2.5kbps

This setting can be ignored. Module will AUTO adjust.

POWER

Transmission Power

21dBm –30dBm

30dBm

Transmission power setting ranging from 100mW to 1WATT.

FEC

Forward Error

Correction

Disable –Enable

Enable

If sudden interference occurs the data pack can be corrected

instead of dropping the packet. With FEC enabled the range is

improved greatly.

FIXED MODE

Targeted transmission

and receiving

Disable –Enable

Disable

If enabled both transmitting and receiving modules must have

same address and channel setting. It allows modules to

exclusively communicate while ignoring interference from

signals that are operating on same frequency. (similar to

MODBUS)

WOR TIMING

Wake on receive

500 –4000mS

This setting can be ignored, since the module will never be put

into sleep mode for #RADIO REV1.

IO MODE

RX & TX pin mode

PushPull - OpenDrain

Push Pull

PLENGTH

Packet length

16 –2000 Bytes

Can be ignored. Module is set to unlimited packet size.

TROUBLESHOOTING

In a case if the data is not being transmitted or received, please check the wiring and module settings to ensure that the

communicating devices are operating the same baud rate, channel and target address.

The #RADIO module contains a simple power LED, so quickly determine if the module is powered up.
