How to send array of hex to SPI MOSI?

[Nake350]

I need to send configuartion info to a SiLabs wireless transiever by SPI, but not sure how to send such an array of numbers in a sequential stream.
I am using the SPI macro in other parts of the project for simple variables with good results.

The C code created by the Wireless transiever configuration app looked like below, so I want to integrate into my flowcode project

#define RF_WRITE_TX_FIFO 0x66, 0x8D, 0x2A, 0x70, 0x45, 0x32, 0x0D, 0x8E, 0x2B, 0x2A, 0x0E, 0xFC, 0x37, 0x77, 0x35, 0x5B, 0xC6, 0x3F, 0x1C, 0xED, \
0xC5, 0xC8, 0xEA, 0xA2, 0xDF, 0xCA, 0xF6, 0xA7, 0x4F, 0x8E, 0xA3, 0xC2, 0x63, 0x39, 0xD4, 0x9A, 0x04, 0xE8, 0x45, 0xB4, \
0xA1, 0xA7, 0x68, 0x85, 0x4D, 0x8D, 0x56, 0x34, 0xE2, 0x36, 0xF6, 0x25, 0x66, 0xE9, 0xEE, 0x6C, 0x0C, 0xBF, 0x5D, 0xE4, \
0xD0, 0x4C, 0x00, 0x9E, 0x45, 0xEA, 0x9C, 0xE7, 0x45, 0xC7, 0x0F, 0xBD, 0x05, 0x1A, 0x40, 0xB3, 0xC4, 0x3E, 0xE6, 0xF6, \
0xC4, 0xAD, 0x7B, 0xDB, 0x69, 0x2E, 0xCA, 0x78, 0x09, 0xCA, 0xAC, 0xD8, 0xE3, 0x88, 0xD1, 0x10, 0x20, 0x18, 0x3B, 0x8F, \
0x7B, 0x18, 0x6C, 0x1B, 0xA8, 0x56, 0xF9, 0xB7, 0x03, 0xCC, 0x28, 0x9C, 0xB1, 0xFB

Is there a way to do such a thing?

Thanks

If you are using v9 - create an array :

byte x[sz] (where sz is the number of values) and in the initial value set:

{ paste your values -> 0xNN, 0xNN, 0xNN ... } Values enclosed in braces '{' and '}'

Then you can just write them out using a loop

In pseudocode:
for .i = 0..sz - 1
spi.out (x[.i])

which will do exactly what you need..

In v8 - you can use a lookup table in a similar manner...

Many thanks for your help Martin,

Yes, I'm using FC9, but without sounding too dumb, what feature do you mean to create an array and enter values in please?

I am trying with 'SendByteArray' macro, with data BYTE being a variable with values added as you stated (which is now being accepted without syntax errors since adding the '{' and '}'

With trial values entered in the variable, it's looping round but no values being sent accoring to the Oscilloscope?

EDIT: I found I set the variable as a string, so when tried as a Byte, but with an array of values it works with the SPI as needed.

Thanks again,

Nick

Glad to hear you've got it working...

Yes - I've been caught using a string as an array of bytes issue too - sometimes you can get away with this, and sometimes it throws up some unusual errors..
