The Serial Communication accessory board needs to be installed to run the SERIAL_TO_
WIFI.C
sample program. This accessory board is included only with the Deluxe Develop-
ment Kit.
To install the Serial Communication accessory board, insert the strip of header pins
included with the accessory board into the socket at J12 on the bottom side of the Serial
Communication accessory board. Then line up the Serial Communication accessory board
with the Interface Board or Digital I/O accessory board standoffs/ connectors and install the
Serial Communication accessory board pins into socket J2 on the Interface Board or the
Digital I/O accessory board. Secure the Serial Communication accessory board with the
long plastic standoffs/connectors from above as shown in Figure 14—note that one plastic
standoff/connector needs to be inserted “upside down” to secure the Serial Communica-
tion accessory board above the antenna bracket.

Pins 1–2, 3–4, 5–6, and 7–8 on header JP5 on the Serial Communication accessory board
must be jumpered. Pins 1–2 and 3–4 on header JP7 on the Serial Communication acces-
sory board must also be jumpered.

SERIAL_TO_WIFI.C—This program demonstrates using TCP over Wi-Fi, which is
handled automatically by the libraries. This sample program uses the RabbitWeb HTTP
enhancements to configure a simple serial to Wi-Fi converter.
This sample program only supports listening TCP sockets, which means that serial to
Wi-Fi devices can only be started by another device initiating the network connection
to the Rabbit.
