Once uploaded to your Feather, open the Serial Monitor and set it to 9600 bauds. '''The sketch would wait until you open the Serial Monitor to start transmitting the data'''.
You should see the following messages appears on the Serial Monitor.

Where we could see the transmitted messages with the packetnum packet index, timing and data.
The screen also displays the '''ACK''' acknowledgement send back by the receiver.

So to transport the data to the receiver, we need to transform the values (float, integer) into their string representation.
So to transport the data to the receiver, we need to transform the values (float, integer) into their string representation.
When having multiple data in their string representation is not enough, they must also been organized.
'''The final format must be easy to parse and very compact''' (smaller is the radio message and higher is the chance for him to get to the ground without error).
We propose the following format:

The {{fname|init_radio_module()}} function is called from the {{fname|setup()}}.
This function does all the stuff to initialize the RFM69HCW modules. Set the transmission power, the frequency and the '''encryption key'''.
<syntaxhighlight lang="c">
<syntaxhighlight lang="c">
Serial.println(" MHz");
Serial.println(" MHz");
}
}
</syntaxhighlight>
This function send the header information to the Serial monitor.
Ideally, this function should also send it via the radio.
<syntaxhighlight lang="c">
void send_header() {
void send_header() {
String s1 = String( F("***HEADER***\r\n") );
String s1 = String( F("***HEADER***\r\n") );
Serial.print( s1 );
Serial.print( s1 );
String s2 = String( F(":counter|time_ms|temperature|pressure_hpa|temp2;\r\n") );
String s2 = String( F(":counter|time_ms|temperature|pressure_hpa|temp2;\r\n") );
Serial.print(s2);
Serial.print(s2);
}
}
</syntaxhighlight>
Helper function used to blink a LED. Note that a pause of 3 time the blinking time. This will ease the identification of blink code into other blinking patterns.
<syntaxhighlight lang="c">
void Blink(byte PIN, byte DELAY_MS, byte loops) {
void Blink(byte PIN, byte DELAY_MS, byte loops) {
for (byte i=0; i<loops; i++) {
for (byte i=0; i<loops; i++) {
delay( 3* DELAY_MS );
delay( 3* DELAY_MS );
}
}
</syntaxhighlight>
This function returns the voltage for the analog Pin.
It converts a digital value between 0 & 1024 (from ADC) to voltage between 0 & 3.3 volts.
<syntaxhighlight lang="c">
float getVoltage(int pin){
float getVoltage(int pin){
// AS the sketch does not call the analogReadResolution()
// each unit equal 3.3 / 1024 = 3.2 millivolts
return (analogRead(pin) * .0032);
return (analogRead(pin) * .0032);
}

== Fault tolerant design ==
The goal is to transmit the data to the ground station.<br />The code of the Emitter (this section) and Receiver (next section) are doing the job.
However, what would happens to your data if the antenna did break? All the data are lots!
This is where the "Extra Flash" would be a great help!
As showed earlier, it is also possible to store/save the data into the Flash.
A good approach would be:
# to save the data in the Flash
# then send it over Radio.
In this way, the data stays available inside the CanSat and could be extracted as suited.
