Radiocrafts recommends using a 1/4 wavelength monopole antenna or a dipole antenna with a minimum gain of 2 dBi for optimal performance.
Radiocrafts provides a configuration tool, RC24Config, which allows you to customize settings such as frequency, data rate, and transmission power. You can also use AT commands to configure the module.
The maximum transmission distance depends on various factors such as antenna gain, transmission power, and environmental conditions. However, Radiocrafts claims a typical range of up to 10 km (6.2 miles) in open air with a 2 dBi antenna.
The RC2400-ZNM module uses a UART interface for communication, which is widely supported by most microcontrollers. However, you should verify the specific requirements of your microcontroller and ensure it can handle the module's baud rate and data format.
The RC2400-ZNM module supports AES-128 encryption, which can be enabled using AT commands. Additionally, you can implement your own encryption algorithms or use secure protocols such as SSL/TLS to ensure secure data transmission.
