    SWRU282A     June 2012    CC85XXDK-HEADSET Quick Start Guide  1. Kit Contents   The  following  items  are  included  in  the CC85XXDK-HEADSET:    2 x CC85XX Headset boards    2 x Battery    1 x CC Debugger    1 x USB micro cable    1 x 3.5mm jack to 3.5mm jack cable    Documentation  If  anything is missing in the  CC85XXDK-HEADSET  please  contact  your  local  TI sales representative.  Caution! The kit contains ESD sensitive  components.  Handle with care to prevent permanent damage.  2. Purpose of this Quick Start Guide  This quick start guide will provide step-by-step instructions showing how to set up an audio  link  between  two  wireless  units provided in the development kit.   The  CC8531  on  each  of  the  boards  are pre-programmed  with  firmware  to  stream audio from the Master microphone input to the  Slave  headphone  output.    Please follow step 3 to 9.  Information on how to upgrade with latest firmware, see step 10.  For  more  details  on  CC85XX,  see  the product folder of the CC8520 [1].   Performance  and  functionality  of  the CC8531  are  strongly  dependant  on  the firmware.  Thus,  for  performance  testing etc  make  sure  the  firmware  used  is  the latest  released firmware  from  the TI  web site, see step 10. 3. Plug the batteries to each of the Headset boards   There’s  only  one  way  to  connect  the battery  plug  to  the  socket  on  the  board. With  the  pre-programmed  firmware  the CC8531  enters  the  OFF  power  mode when  the  battery  is  connected.  The batteries should have enough charge out-of-the-box  to  establish  a  link  and  stream audio. To charge the battery, see section 9. With full battery the link should run for typically  15  hours,  the  Master  being  the bottleneck.  The Slave plays audio for  22 hours typically.  Warning! Always use the battery supplied with  the  kits  with  the  CC85xx  Headset boards.   4.  Power up both boards   In  the  pre-programmed  firmware    the toggling between power modes  OFF and ON  is  mapped  to  pressing  the  rocker switch IN for 1.6 seconds. The two boards are unpaired out-of-the-box, so in the ON power mode the topmost LED should flash once  every  second  indicating  network state  ALONE  .  In  the  OFF  power  mode the  LED  is  turned  off.  Make  sure  both boards are flashing.  Caution! To minimize risk of injury, avoid touching components during operation if symbolized as hot.  Do not leave EVM powered when unattended. 5. Connect an audio source to the Master    Connect  an  audio  source  (CD-player, MP3-player  or  similar)  to  the  line  in connector  on  the  Master  Headset  board (labeled Master on the back side) via the 3.5mm jack cable.   The  Master  is pre-programmed  with firmware  to  set  up  the  onboard TLV320AIC3204 codec [2] to power down the DAC and use the line in connector as source to the ADC input.   6. Connect a headphone to the Slave    Connect  a  headphone  to  the  3.5mm headphone  output  on  the  board  labeled Slave on the back side.   The  Slave  is  pre-programmed  with firmware  to  set  up  the  onboard TLV320AIC3204 codec [2] to power down the  ADC  and  have  the  headphone connector  as  destination  of  the  DAC output.
    SWRU282A     June 2012   7. Pairing   In  the  pre-programmed  firmware  the pairing button is mapped to  pressing  the rocker switch IN (not hold, which is power toggling as described in 4).   Press  the  pairing  button  on  either  board and observe that the LED blinking pattern changes.  It  will  now  flash  two  times  per second which indicates that the device is trying to pair with another device.  If the pairing button on the other board is pressed within 10 seconds the devices will pair.  The  Master  status  LED  will  be constantly  lit,  and  the  Slave  status  LED will flash once every 2.5 seconds. Audio is now being streamed to the Slave.  When  successfully  paired  the  Slave  will save the Master’s device ID in non-volatile memory and automatically try to pair with this Master whenever in the ALONE state. Thus  pressing  the  pairing  buttons  again will  no  longer  be  necessary  (unless  the Slave  is  re-programmed  or  paired  with another Master).  8. Volume control    The  pre-programmed  Slave  firmware  is configured to have so-called “local volume control”  meaning  that  the  Slave  controls its  own  volume  locally.  The  volume buttons are mapped to clicking/holding the rocker switch UP and DOWN. 9. Charging  To charge the battery, simply connect the USB micro cable while the battery is also connected. The charge voltage should be 5V  (plugging  the  USB  cable  in  your computer will work perfectly). The bottom LED  will be  lit  indicating  charging. When the battery is fully charged the LED will go dark.   The Headset board can be powered from USB  alone  (remove  the  battery  and connect USB cable). Then the LED will be lit the whole time.   Audio can be streamed while charging.  For  information  about  the  single  chip charger and DC/DC converter, see [4].  10. PurePath Wireless Configurator    The next step is to download the PurePath Wireless Configurator (PPWC) [3]. PPWC makes  it  possible  to  explore  all  the configuration  options  of  the  CC85XX family. After creating device configurations for  Master  and  Slave  network  roles, PPWC can program the CC85XX devices directly  through  the  CCDebugger (included in the kit). A.
