How to use RF-WM-20CMB1 module

1. Network Configuration

RF-WM-20CMB1 supports WiFi network configuration with AT commands, and supports Bluetooth peer-to-peer network configuration with BLE Config, thus making network configuration fast and convenient.

RF-WM-20CMB1 supports WiFi network configuration


2. How to use the network

The module supports two operating modes: AP mode and STA mode. In AP(Access Point,) mode, it provides wireless access for other WIFI devices, functioning as a generic wireless routers/bridges while being allowed to connect with other APs.

In STA(Station) mode, the device functions similar to a wireless terminal. An STA itself does not accept wireless access, whereas it can be connected to an AP. A generic wireless network card works in this mode.

In STA mode, the RF-WM-20CMB1 module can establish a client or a server over TCP connection. In AP mode, the module can establish a server to support other TCP clients connected with it in STA mode.


Application Scenarios

The RF-WM-20CMB1 module, with built-in TCP/IP protocols and Bluetooth protocols can be used in a broad spectrum of IoT applications.
