5. Software Operation

1. After selecting the COM port, the software will automatically attempt to initiate communication with the Hub.

a. If the communication is successful, the Connect button will change to Connected.

2. If the sensors are properly configured and powered, then they should appear in the Sensor Status Table.

a. The status of all of the inputs for each sensor board are shown in the status table

b. Note: The Hub and Sensors are configured to automatically establish a network out of the box

without user intervention. After the network has been established, swapping radios between node

boards will cause the Sensor to be unbound (not part of the network). To get the Sensor back on

the network, an Auto Bind or Seeded Bind will need to be performed. Please refer to the N:1 DVK

User's Guide for more information.

3. Graphing of the potentiometer will also be initiated automatically.

a. Try rotating the potentiometer on any of the 4 sensors boards to observe the resulting graph

b. The potentiometer voltage is only updated during the periodic report interval, or sooner, if the user

initiates an asynchronous event by pressing the User Button or by activating the Magnetic Reed

Switch.

4. Try activating the Red LED on a Sensor Node Board

a. Click on the desired sensor ID in the status table to highlight the row

b. Then click the Red LED checkbox in the Sensor Properties area of the window

c. Then click the Send Command button

d. The Red LED for the selected sensor will illuminate the next time that the sensor communicates

with the Hub

5. For debugging purposes, the serial communication between the PC Host and the Hub are shown in the

message logging window
