| - | | Fake Mode | This mode does not require any physical devices at all; it simulates a weatherbox network by sending packets from multiple types of weatherboxes in an infinite loop. | | + | | Fake Mode | This mode does not require any physical devices at all; it simulates a weatherbox network \\ by sending packets from multiple types of weatherboxes in an infinite loop. | |
| | Bridged Mode | This mode allows you to hook up a physical device that emits TX frames onto uart lines. This could mean a full weatherbox, or just a microcontroller running a stubbed version of the normal firmware. | | | Bridged Mode | This mode allows you to hook up a physical device that emits TX frames onto uart lines.
