Connect power to the J1 VCC pin (pin 2). Power and digital or analog I/O should be referenced to the J1 GND pin (pin 1).dImportant: To guarantee a known start-up state, the mote should be issued a reset after power is applied.Table 1-3.

Serial Port CHAPTER 1 - M1030 MOTE SPECIFICATIONSQUICK START GUIDE FOR D1120 NETWORK WITH M1030 MOTE 5DUST NETWORKS CONFIDENTIALSerial PortMotes can be configured at run time to act as a serial bridge to legacy hardware, or new smart sensor applications whose requirements exceed onboard mote capabilities. (Smart sensors are sensors containing a microprocessor). Use the serial port (J1 pins 4 and 5) in conjunction with Clear-To-Send (CTS) and Time pins (J1 pins 8 and 10) to provide a flow-controlled serial interface with timing information. Time pin 10 allows the sensor processor (SP) to request the current time from the network. When Time pin 10 is high, the mote replies by sending a network time packet via the serial port.Serial port settings are 4800 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit. All lines are LVTTL (3 V) signals.Antenna RequirementsA U.FL-compatible male connector is provided on board for the antenna connection. Nearson offers a number of 900 MHz antennae with U.FL connectors as a custom option. The antenna should be omni-directional, single-ended, with a 50 Ω impedance. The following are FCC-approved antenna specifications for the M1030 mote:When placing the mote inside an enclosure, the antenna should be mounted such that the radiating portion of the antenna protudes from the enclosure, and connected using a U.FL connector on a coaxial cable. For optimum performance, allow the antenna to be positioned vertically when installed.Sleep ModeMotes come with a special sleep mode feature that can ease deployment of battery operated systems. If the serial port (J1 pins 4 and 5) is shorted, and the device is physically reset, it assumes a very low-power mode that typically consumes less than 2 µA. The status LEDs remain off, and the device remains in sleep mode until it is physically reset. No power switch is needed.dNote: A mote cannot join the network while in sleep mode. The mote must be physically reset to return it to normal mode before it can join the network.Gain Pattern Type Frequency Connector+2 dBi Omni-directional 1/4 λ902–928 MHz U.FL+2 dBi Omni-directinal 1/2 λ902–928 MHz U.FL
