Question about Linx RF module's (HP3) datasheet

[Bruce]

RX LO is just the local oscillator frequency fed into the mixer on a superhet receiver. When you change the TX frequency, it also has to change the receive frequency.

Check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superheterodyne_receiver and scroll down to the Overview section for a brief explanation, or lookup superhet receiver design online for the nitty-gritty details.

Also - the HP3 series serial communications will not work with DEBUG or any other asynchronous (means no clock) since it is synchronous (means it requires clock & data) serial.

Check out http://linxtechnologies.com/Documents/AN-00155.pdf for a code example of serial communications with an HP3 series.

As a novice I would still like to ask, TX frequency channel is changed by sending a serial command to the TX module, I got that loud and clear, how is RX channel selected, is it by sending excatly the same command to the RX module? & rest is taken care by the module itself?
I am very confused because on TX datasheet it says clearly that what to send and what will be the TX frequency, BUT on RX datasheet it doesn't say what to send and what will be the RX centre frequency, instead it mentions excatly the same thing as in the TX datasheet, which I think is only for changing TX channel. It may be a small thing to undertstand but I am still not getting it clearly.

I checked the link for the example code with serial communication but it is in assembly language which unfortunately I can't understand
Is there any other link somewhere showing same or similar code in PBP, PLEASE point me to it?

The receiver accepts the same commands as the transmitter when selecting the operating frequency. I suspect they goofed when putting the receiver data sheet together. Obviously, since it's a receiver, you're not configuring a transmit frequency...;o)

I've never used these so I don't have any PBP code examples. Sorry.

Since it requires synchronous serial, I would bet you can use PBPs shiftout command.
