1.1 Outline

The MU-1 RS232C interface kit MU1-RIK is a development kit for planning radio system with an RS232C interface
connection function that uses the embedded low power radio modem MU-1. Purchasing the kit enables you to begin
evaluating communication with the MU-1 immediately.
The on-board MU-1 can be controlled using simple dedicated commands, so that the developer can concentrate on
designing the protocols for transmitting and receiving data, without needing to be aware of control of the radio
component. Since the control program created by the user accesses the host COM port, users can apply their fund
of knowledge of RS232C technology.
The MU1-RIK can be used with a variety of operating systems (Windows 98, Me, 2000, XP).
1.1.1 The MU1-RS2
In this operation guide, for the sake of convenience, the MU-1 RS232C interface board MU1-RS2IF with the
embedded low power radio modem MU-1 mounted on it is referred to as the MU1-RS2. Before using the kit, mount
the MU-1 on the MU1-RS2IF. When mounting the MU-1, observe the following cautions, and carry out the soldering
carefully.
MU-1
Cautions for soldering
• To prevent damage to the connectors, solder the joints quickly.
• Avoid connection defects.
Caution
• In order to prevent damage to the MU-1 and the MU1-RS2IF from static electricity, earth yourself
before starting work.
• Do not cause short circuits by dripping solder on the board.
Important
It is not possible simply to replace communication using existing RS232C system equipment connected
with a cable, with MU1-RS2 wireless communication. The hardware and software must be designed
specifically for the MU-1.
