The Development Kit Demonstration Software

The development kit includes software that is used to configure and control

the module through the Programming Dock. The software defaults to the

Demo & EZConfiguration tab when opened (Figure 13). This window offers

basic configuration and demonstration of the module’s functionality with the

current configuration.

1. Clicking the Contact Linx, Documentation and About labels on the

left side expands them to show additional information and links to the

latest documentation. This is shown in Figure 15.

2. The Help window shows tips and comments about the software.

3. The active module is connected to the PC and being configured by the

software.

4. Available modules are connected to the PC but are not currently being

configured or controlled by the PC

5. Known Modules are not currently connected to the PC, but have either

been connected to the software in the past or have been manually

entered.

6. The Given Permissions window shows the list of modules that are

paired with the active module and the Permissions Mask for each one.

7. The demo area replicates a remote control device. The appearance

changes with the programmed configurations.

8. The Status Details section shows the module’s control line states, radio

state and RSSI level.

9. The Sent and Received Packets window shows the commands

sent to the module and the responses from the module. This aids in

debugging custom software.

10. Once a module has been configured, the configurations can be saved

into a profile that can be recalled and programmed into other modules.

The Saved Profiles list shows all of the profiles that have been saved

into the software.

11. The Show Commands button opens a larger window to view the serial

commands sent to and received from the module.

The modules are shown with three identifiers as shown in Figure 14.

1. The type of module (HumRC™ Series)

2. The module’s local address.

3. A custom name that can be given to the module. Type a name into

the box and press Enter to apply it. This name is shown on the LCD

display on the programming dock.
