The Yardstick One and RFcat Notes

As we covered in the Wireless Hacking video course, the Yardstick One is a very useful piece of hardware to perform testing of RF devices that communicate in frequencies under 1GHz. It can be combined with many tools, including RFcat. The following are a few links and resources that we discussed in the video course related to these tools:

RFcat

The following are several useful RFcat commands:

  • d._debug = 1 dumps debug messages to the screen
  • d.debug() - prints state information every second
  • d.discover() - listens for specific SYNCWORDS
  • d.lowball() - disables most “filters” to see more packets
  • d.lowballRestore() - restores the configuration before calling lowball()
  • d.RFlisten() - listens for signals and dumps data to the screen
  • d.RFcapture() - dumps data to screen, returns list of packets
  • d.scan() - scans a configurable frequency range
  • d.setChannel() - sets the channel to be used
  • d.setFHSSstate() - sets the FHSS state to be used
  • d.setFreq() - sets the frequency to be used
  • d.specan() - a spectrum analyzer
  • print d.reprRadioConfig() - prints the radio configuration details
