Hello,
I bought a couple of cheap nRF24le1e modules expecting it to be a similar plug and play idea to XBee which in retrospect wasn't a very intelligent assumption. I was expecting to be able to communicate via uart with these modules as the data sheet shows pin 5 and 6 are TX and RX respectively but no such luck.
After doing a bit of googling, it appear these modules contain a nRF24l01 plus a microcontroller. My question is, does this mean I need to try communicating with them via SPI and if so what use are the UART pins?
Thanks,
Oisin
