Antenna
The Digi Connect Wi-SP is available with 1 RP-SMA connector. The antenna is connected
to the product with a reverse polarity SMA connector (sub-miniature size A). The antenna
only fits on the product one way to ensure a proper connection. Another option for both
signal reception and design flexibility is to use a 30cm antenna extension cord (Digi part
number DC-ANT-E-24DP) with .5dB loss to separate the antenna from the product..
Caution: This Part 15 radio device operates on a non-interference basis
with other devices operating at this frequency when using the antennae
listed in the Antenna Specification table. Any changes or modification to
the product not expressly approved by Digi International could void the
user’s authority to operate the device.

Programming
Considerations
This chapter discusses programming consideration for the Digi Connect SP and Digi
Connect Wi-SP and the NS7520 processor it is based on.
GPIO
General Information
The NS7520 processor supports 16 general purpose I/O (GPIO) pins, some of which are
reserved for specific functions and some of which can be customized. These pins fall into
three categories:
Those labeled “Reserved” in the following table are dedicated to a specific use
and must not be reprogrammed, or the unit may not operate correctly. Often,
these pins are not connected to external interfaces.
Those labeled “Allocated” in the following table are exposed to an external
interface and allocated to a specific use by the software but can be customized
safely with code modifications.
Those labeled “Available” are exposed to an external interface, not controlled
directly by the software, and can be customized.
19
GPIO
GPIO Registers
Two registers, named PORTA and PORTC, govern the 16 GPIO pins. Each register is
responsible for eight pins, and each GPIO pin uses the following four bits to completely
describe its behavior:
Mode (CMODE)
Direction (CDIR)
Special function (CSF). This is only applicable to PORTC.
Data value
The first three bits describe the functionality of the GPIO pin. The data bit provides the
current value of the pin when read and allows control of the value of an output pin when
written.
In order to configure a pin as either a GPIO input or GPIO output, the corresponding bit
positions in the appropriate register must be configured according to the information in the
following table:
GPIO Configuration
Input
Output
–
CMODE = 0
–
CMODE = 0
–
CDIR = 0
–
CDIR = 1
–
CSF = 0
–
CSF = 0
Since each register controls 8 GPIO pins, it is safest to read the full 32 bit register, modify
the bits corresponding to the pin, and then write the full 32 bits back. In this way, the
behavior of other GPIO pins will be preserved.
For more information regarding the format and programming of the GPIO registers, see the
NS7520 Hardware Reference.

LEDs
General information
The device server has two types of LEDs:
LEDs connected directly to GPIO pins on the processor and controlled directly
in software
LEDs connected to other hardware components (normally the Ethernet
hardware) and not directly programmable by the operating system
The development kit supplies software to control the LEDs. This behavior can often be
modified by manipulating the LED table in the BSP code. See gpio.c for details.
As with any GPIO output, the GPIO register must be properly configured in order to assert
values on the pin. The appropriate bits should be configured as:
CMODE = 0
CDIR = 1

CSF=0
About LEDs
The device server has three LEDs:
The green LED is wired directly to the Ethernet hardware and indicates that a
link has been established.
The yellow LED is wired directly to the Ethernet hardware and signals Ethernet
activity.
The red LED is software programmable. It is wired to processor GPIO register
bit PORTC6. The LED is wired to be active high. The development kit software
is implemented by default so that this LED reflects "power" (and is, therefore,
always lit).
Flash
General Information
Digi Connect SP and Digi Connect Wi-SP device servers each have 4 MB of flash memory,
which is controlled by chip select 0, located at 0x02000000.
Memory
Digi Connect SP and Digi Connect Wi-SP device servers each have 16 MB of SDRAM
memory, which is controlled by chip select 1, located at 0x00000000 in the processor
address space and aliased at 0x04000000 and 0x08000000. The application program
(EOS) is loaded at address 0x08080000.
22
Digi Connect SP Hardware Reference
Reset Button
The device servers have a push button connected to a GPIO pin. This pin is named
"/INIT." In the processor, the GPIO register bit associated with "/INIT" is PORTC5. The
GPIO pin will read as high normally, and low when the button is pushed. See "Reset
Button" on page 12 for the external location.

RF Exposure Statement
The Digi Connect Wi-SP device complies with the RF exposure limits for humans as called
out in RSS-102. It is exempt from RF evaluation based on its operating frequency of
2400 MHz, and effective radiated power of 100 milliwatts. This would be less than the 3
watt requirement for a mobile device (>20 cm separation) operating at 2400 MHz.
In order to comply with FCC RF exposure limits, dipole antenna should be located at a
minimum distance of 7.9 inches (20 cm) or more from the body of all persons.

FCC Part 15 Class A
Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) (FCC 15.105(a)
The Digi Connect SP and Digi Connect Wi-SP have been tested and found to comply with
the limits for Class A digital devices 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 the user will
be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
Labeling Requirements (FCC 15.19)
This device complies with Part 15 of 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.
35

Modifications (FCC 15.21)
Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by Digi may void the
user's authority to operate this equipment.
Cables (FCC 15.27)
Shielded cables must be used to remain within the Class A limitations.
Industry Canada
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emissions from
digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department
of Communications.
