The RF boards in this kit are FCC and IC
certified and tested/complies with ETSI/R&TTE
over temperature from 0 to +35°C. The antenna,
W1010 from Pulse, is a ¼ wave dipole antenna
with 2 dBi gain.
More information about the SmartRF05EB can
be found in www.ti.com/lit/swru210.
The CC2543EM boards can also be plugged
into a battery board (see www.ti.com/tool/socbb) for standalone operation.
Caution! The kit contains ESD
sensitive components. Handle with
care to prevent permanent damage.
4. Power Options
There are several ways of applying power to the
SmartRF05EB.
•
•
•
2 x 1.5 V AA Alkaline Batteries
USB
External Power Supply
For the batteries and USB, there are voltage
regulators on the SmartRF05EB that will set the
on-board voltage to 3.3 V. The external power
supply should set a voltage that does not exceed
3.3 V. Note that there should only be one
active power source at any one time.
Warning! To minimize risk of personal injury or
property damage, never use rechargeable
batteries to power the board.
7. Choosing Mode
Next, mount the CC2543EMs firmly on to
connectors P5 and P6 on the SmartRF05EB.
The CC2544 Dongle can be connected to any
USB port to power the device.
Caution! To minimize risk of injury, avoid
touching components during operation if
symbolized as hot.
5. Power the
Boards
6. Start-up Screen
Find jumper P11 on
the top side of each
SmartRF05EB. This jumper is used to set the
power source for the board. Set P11 to “1-2” if
you are using battery power. Set P11 to “2-3” if
you are using USB or an
external power supply.
The CC2543EMs and the CC2544 Dongle
will be pre-loaded with a Packet Error Rate
(PER) test application. The LCD screens on
the two SmartRF05EBs should display the
messages below:
Once you have set P11,
find switch P8 on the top
side
of
each
SmartRF05EB. To power up the boards, flip the
switch from the “OFF” position to “ON”.
Do not leave
unattended.

8. Master Mode
The application can be used between two
CC2543EM’s or between a single CC2543EM
and the CC2544 Dongle. There are two possible
modes of operation called “Remote” and
“Master”. The CC2544Dongle is set to master by
default as it is the only option for this device in
this application. After button S1 is pushed at the
start up screen, the mode selection screen
(showed to the left below) will appear. The
Remote mode is shown by default. Press the
joystick up and down to change between master
and remote mode and press button S1 to
confirm.
In “Master” mode, the radio will repeatedly (once
every 10 milliseconds) send out a “beacon”
signal (250 kbps, GFSK modulation, 160 kHz
deviation, 2479 MHz) and listen for a response
from the remote device. Once the beacon is
acknowledged by the “Remote”, the actual PER
test begins. During the PER test, packets are
sent at a fixed repetition rate of 10 msec.
In the remote mode all the parameters for the
current PER test must be set up before the test
begins.
No more actions are needed from the user for
this master device to work.

12. Number of Packets
There are 6 different modulation schemes
available for this application. The different
bitrates are 250 Kbps, 500 Kbps, 1Mbps and 2
Mbps. MSK modulation is used for the 500 Kbps
rate and GFSK for the rest. Move the joystick up
or down to change the scheme and press S1 to
confirm the choice.
The packet length can be set to 10, 16, 32, 64 or
120 bytes. Move the joystick up or down to
change the packet length and press S1 to
confirm the choice.
The total number of packets to be sent for each
run can be set to 200, 1000, 5000, 10000 and .
Move the joystick up or down to change the
number of packets and press S1 to confirm the
choice.
13. Test Running
14. PER Test Summary
15. Repeat Test
The remote device acknowledges the beacon
signal from the master and sends the
configuration packet. The PER test begins. While
the master device is sending packets the yellow
led will be lit on the smartRF05EB (“LED3”) or
the red led on the CC2544 Dongle (“LED1”).
The first results screen will display the number of
packets received without errors (“Good”), the
number that were received with a CRC error
(“Bad”), and the number that were expected but
not received (“LOST”). Push button S1 to
proceed to the second results screen.
The final screen allows the test to be repeated by
pushing “Button 1” (S1). Note that the set up data
is maintained. If you wish to enter different test
parameters, you may do so by pushing “EM
RESET” button, located at the approximate
center of the SmartRF05EB.
