Hi all,
I'm in the middle of re-creating Maiana as a custom AIS Rx.
My hardware is consisting of STM32L432KB, Si4463, 30MHz xtal for silabs, EEPROM, without GPS, and without TX amplifier chain.
The schematics are attached
Schematic_AIS Rx STM 4463_2023-02-21.pdf
I'm using firmware from https://github.com/peterantypas/maiana/tree/master/latest/Firmware/Transponder "L432-NewBreakouts".
I've been successfully flash the firmware.
On start-up, the receiver puts out 3 sentences on serial:
$PAISYS,11.x,4.1.0,,STM32L432,1,051
$PAISTN,0,,,0,0,0,0,011
$PAITXCFG,1,0,1,0,0*0A
But nothing else. I have a dummy AIS Tx to test my other AIS receiver, but not been received by the maiana rx. The dummy AIS Tx was always received and decoded by my other AIS Rx.
I probed the SCK, MISO, and MOSI lines between the MCU and the silabs ICs, and there is activity on the start-up (or after reset). No further activity afterward.
I probed the TRX_IC_DATA, TRX_IC_CLK, RX_IC_DATA, and RX_IC_CLK lines, no activity at all.
Are there some steps I missed?
Thank you all.
Regards,
Handiko
