Mounting Considerations
The following steps should be followed when mounting the D17XX PCB.
Note: Should these guidelines be ignored, performance may suffer and the board may
be damaged permanently.
Heat sinking
The Microprocessor (U28D17XX) and FPGA (U3D17XX) require thorough heat sinking to a metal
mounting plate, as indicated in Figure 3. Failure to install such provisions will damage both
components.
Connector clearance
Provision should be made for any ribbon cables as they cannot be folded in the first 10mm at either
end of termination. The same is true for SMA connectors. All JST’s are a similar height to the Tin cans
on each card.

in the same network IP class as the D17XX.
Power up the D17XX and observe the assigned IP address in Tera Term. From the PC,
browse to the address, as described in the previous section.
10. Serial RS232 Control
The following section describes the control protocol employed on the RS232 link for controlling the
D550 board.
RS232 Control – General Principles
The physical interface is RS232 but this can be converted to RS485 with an external adapter where
multiple units are controlled over one RS 485 bus.
Normal operation involves sending a packet from the control device (normally a PC) to the device
being controlled. If the packet satisfies an address integrity check, then the controlled device will
action the command and send a reply.
For compatibility with modems an ASCII style protocol is used.
Ports are set for 115200 baud, 8 bits, No parity, 1 stop.

Status BYTE
Data –Optional, variable length

Checksum
End byte
The checksum byte is a summation of all bytes in the packet, not including the start (02h) and end
(03h) bytes. The result is then modified by forcing bit 7 high to prevent ASCII control characters from
being sent. The resulting checksum is in the range of 80h - FFh.
The Status byte will indicate if the command performed OK, or indicate an error:
ASCII
Meaning
All OK
General error, Command could not be executed
Typically E will be returned if the message is formatted incorrectly (separators in wrong place) or if
commands are in upper case, or if commands do not match against the allowed list of commands, or
if the checksum is wrong.
Addresses in the range 0001 to 9998 are for general use. Address 0000 is reserved and 9999 is a
broadcast address. i.e. any device will reply to this address. Its reply will contain its own specific
address.
All data in the transmitter and receiver is stored as one of 5 data types, Double, Integer String, or
Hexadecimal integer. The data type dictates the contents of the data section of the reply.


Double – Data always contains decimal point and 2 decimal places. Can have 1 to 4 digits before decimal.
Integer –Data is 5-byte reply of integer value stuffed with preceding zeros. E.g. current preset reply 00006
= preset 6 is live.

String – Data is variable length string excluding null terminator.

Hex – Data should be interpreted as hexadecimal number of variable length.

The command aana allows a name to be assigned to an audio stream from a
particular NETNode.
The command ahea sets the gain level of headphone for the talk back audio..
Cobham suggests that the user experiments on the Web browser with gain levels
and reads back the command to understand the effect of the parameter on the
headset.
The command amic sets the digital gain applied to the microphone input for the
talk back audio. Cobham suggests that the user experiments on the Web
browser with gain levels and reads back the command to understand the effect
of the parameter on the chosen microphone.
The command amute sets the ‘squelch’ level on the talkback audio input.
Adjusting this parameter adjusts the background noise level that is ‘muted’ by
default and not transmitted.
The command arn enables or disables the talkback audio on the mesh node.
