This shield is created to manage the basic RFTide modules with Arduino in an easy way; it is mounted on Arduino, and by means of a dedicated library it allows to transceive data and to emulate the functioning of both Master and Slave units, by interfacing them with a serial port and by supporting the RFTide protocol.

The shield that we have created supports the 5V powering modules, both in serialized and non-serialized version, and has some jumpers to set up the communication interface so that the most wide usage possibility is given.
The communication with the RFTide modules occurs in serial mode, with TTL levels and at the speed of 19.200 bps, and can easily be managed by means of a serial port, that can be hardware or software by Arduino.

This project comes in kit. Some components have to be soldered to the included PCB.
