FCC COMPLIANT STATEMENT
The following statement applies to BU2400 in this kit:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference,
and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
Quick Start Guide
This device has been designed, constructed, and tested for compliance with
FCC Rules that regulate intentional and unintentional radiators. The user is not
permitted to make any modifications to this equipment without express approval
from Crossbow Technology Inc. Doing so will void the user’s authority to
operate this equipment.
Wireless Sensor Network Kits
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class
A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when
the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user
will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
“This device has been designed to operate with the antenna which is provided,
and having a maximum gain of 2.0 dBi. Using Antennas which have a gain
greater than 2.0 dBi are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required
antenna impedance is 50 ohms.”
“To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its
gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power
(e.i.r.p.) is not more than that permitted for successful communication.”
The following statement applies to Micaz (MPR2400) which is the radio
board of SN24040:
FCC Certification for the MICAz
The MICAz Mote is classified by the FCC as both a Class A and a Class B
digital device. As such this section describes how to operate the equipment so
that it does not cause unintended RF interference.
Class A & B Digital Device Compliance
This equipment has been tested by the FCC and found to comply with the limits
for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. There is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a commercial environment. However, operation of this
equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, which
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on. If this is the case the
user is encouraged to try and correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
Reorient or locate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
If these measures do not correct for RF interference, the user will be required to
correct the interference at his own expense.
WARNING: Any modifications to the unit, unless expressly approved by
CrossbowTechnology, Inc. could void the user’s authority to operate the MICAz
Mote (also referred to as“equipment” in this Section).

This guide will step you through the process of setting up a
simple wireless sensor network demonstration. The four
main steps are to
1. Install MoteView on your Windows PC
2. Install the USB drivers for BU Series Base
1.5. InstallShield Wizard will guide you through the rest of
the process and install the following:
• MoteView application
• PostgreSQL 8.0 database service
• PostgreSQL ODBC driver
• Microsoft .NET framework
3: Set-up SN Series Sensor Nodes
All Sensor Nodes in your Kit are labeled with Unique Node ID
3.1.
Station/Gateway.
3. Set up SN Series Sensor Nodes
4. Start MoteView and log sensor data from the wireless
network
IMPORTANT: This section is intended for the Standard
Mote kit users only. If you did not purchase the complete
pre-programmed kit, but only stand-alone boards, then
refer to MoteView User’s manual.
2: Install the USB drivers for BU Series
Base Station/Gateway
3.3.
When you plug the BU Series Base Station/Gateway into your
PC for the first time, Windows detects and reports it as new
hardware. Follow these installation steps.
2.1.
1: Install MoteView on your PC
Before you can use MoteView you have to install it on a PC. The
requirements necessary to properly install MoteView are
provided below:
• A PC with Windows XP Home/Professional or Windows
2000 with SP4
• An NTFS file system
• Screen resolution must be at least 800 X 600 or the
interface will require scrollbars
• Administrative privileges to write to Windows registry
2.2.
2.3.
2.4.
NOTE: Prior to installing MoteView, it is highly
recommended that you shut down all the programs
running on your computer.
Follow these installation steps:
1.1. Insert the WSN Kit CD into the computer’s CD-ROM
drive.
1.2. Double-click on MoteView_Setup.exe from
“Mote View” folder.
1.3. Select the desired installation directory (the default
installation directory is
C:\Program Files\Crossbow\MoteView)
1.4. Check all the available installation tasks.
3.2.
2.5.
2.6.
Connect one end of the USB extension cable to an
available USB port on your PC. Connect the other to
the BU Series Base Station’s USB connector. In a few
moments your PC will identify the MIB520 as a new
hardware.
When the PC directs you to search for a suitable
driver select “Install from a list or specific location
(Advanced).”
Browse to “MIB520 USB Drivers” folder of the
WSN Kit CDROM.
Follow the FTDI InstallShield Wizard through the rest of
the installation process. When the drivers are installed,
you will see two virtual COM ports associated with the
BU Series Base Station/Gateway. Before communicating
with Motes using the USB gateway, you need to see
which ports were assigned to it. To find out do the
following:
Click on Start > Control Panel > System > Hardware
>Device Manager > Ports (COM & LPT).
Make a note of the assigned COM port numbers for
USB Serial Port.
NOTE: The two virtual serial ports for BU Series Base
Station/Gateway are com and comcom is
for Node programming, and com is for Node
communication.
Insert batteries into the battery holder compartment of
the Sensor Nodes and turn the power switch to ON
position.
Spread the nodes around on your desk top or in the
office area.
Make sure that the sensor nodes are resting on their
bases with antenna pointing vertically upwards.
4: Start MoteView and log sensor data from
the network
All the visualization tools in MoteView require being
connected to a database. The database is in your PC
(“localhost”), but can also be a remote PC/server.
Instructions for logging and viewing data locally are
described below:
4.1. Start MoteView by double-clicking the icon on the
desktop.
4.2. Open the Data Logger dialog window from File >
Connect > Connect to MIB510/MIB520/MIB600.
4.3. Change the COM port to the higher of the two com
numbers assigned to the BU Series Gateway during the
driver installation. For example if the COM ports for the
USB Serial Port are 8 and 9, then enter in 9 for COM.
Select the “57600” for the Baud rate from drop-down
box.
4.4. For XMesh Application, select “XMTS400” from the
pull-down menu.
4.5. Click on the Start button.
Soon after that it should display incoming data. Click on
the MoteView window to view data, time plots of sensor
values, and topology of the sensor network. Refer to the
MoteView User’s manual for further details.
