The kit contains ESD sensitive components. Handle with care to prevent permanent damage. To minimize risk of injury, avoid touching components during operation if symbolized as hot. The hardware in this kit is FCC/IC certified and complies with ETSI/R&TTE over temperature from 0 to +35°C. 2 Running the Preprogrammed Link Test 2.1 Introduction 2.2 Powering the boards 2.3 Configure the Master Node The CC1110 on the SmartRFCC1110 target board is preprogrammed with a link test which operates at 868.3 MHz, and uses GFSK modulation and a bit rate of 2.4 kbps. Place 2 AAA batteries in the battery holders placed on the bottom side of each of the SmartRFCC1110-868 boards. Place the jumper on the power selection connector P1 between pin 1 and pin 2 on each board. Press the S1/MASTER button that is placed on the left hand side of the board. When this button is pushed, the two LEDs on this board will blink rapidly. The Master now waits for a Slave node to establish a link. The link test runs a point-to-point communication between a Slave and a Master node based on the SimpliciTI 1.1.0 protocol. First the Master and Slave nodes must be configured as described in the following sections. The two nodes will then establish a link. When this link is established, the Master starts to periodically send packets to the Slave. Between each transmission, the Master goes to receive mode and waits 250 ms for an acknowledgement packet from the Slave. The Slave node is in receive mode waiting for packets from the Master. For each received packet, the Slave automatically responds with an acknowledgement packet. 2.4 Configure the Slave Node On the other board, press the S2/SLAVE button that is placed on the right side of the board. When the button has been pushed, the two LEDs on this board will blink very slowly until a link with a Master node is established. Note that establishing the link may finish in less than 1 s depending on the environment. Applying power to the SmartRFCC1110-868 starts the preprogrammed link test on the CC1110 and the two LEDs on the board are on for 1 s. Warning! To minimize risk of personal injury or property damage, never use rechargeable batteries to power the board. Do not leave the board powered when unattended. 2.5 The LEDs on the Master Node LEDs State 2.6 The LEDs on the Slave node LEDs State The Master is trying to Both LEDs establish a link with a blink rapidly Slave The Slave is trying to Both LEDs establish a link with a blink slowly Master The Master has Green LED received an ACK to a on for 0.5 s packet sent, link ok The link between the Slave and Master is Red LED on established and the continuously Slave is in RX waiting for packets from the Master The Master has not Red LED on received an ACK to the for 0.5 s last 3 packets sent It is important to keep distance (more than 1 meter) between the two nodes when they are trying to establish the link to avoid saturation. This is because full output power (12 dBm) is used for this communication between the nodes. Note that the boards only respond to the first button push. To reconfigure the board, the board must be reset, see point 2.9 in this manual. If the Master does not receive ACKs from the SLAVE in ~70 s, the Red LED on Master will stop to send for 3 s packets to save power. Press S1/MASTER to resume the link test For test only: When the link is Red LED on established, pressing for 5 s the S2/SLAVE button turns the red LED on for 5s Green LED on for 0.5 s while red LED on continuously The Slave has received a packet from the Master and sent an ACK, link ok SWRU234b October 2012 2.7 Antenna Performance 2.8 Range testing 2.9 Resetting the board The PCB antenna length on the SmartRFCC1110-868 is tuned for optimal performance with two AAA batteries present in the battery holder. As this antenna is directive, see DN024 www.ti.com/lit/swra227, it is important to place the two nodes so that the arrow in the silk print next to the antenna on both boards points upwards towards the sky for optimal performance. The preprogrammed link test is well suited for The recommended reset sequence is: range testing.
