Application Components
In addition to the MeshGate and MeshScape Network Monitor software supplied with the
RK-5409-5 Reference Kit, the following items are included for the sample application:
• end node (removed from one of the kit terminal boards)
• Temperature sensor assembly: This assembly contains a factory installed terminal board
and temperature sensor. The terminal board is also equipped with a factory-installed
battery for providing power to the end node.
• TempMonitor application software (automatically loaded on host PC when contents of
kit CD are installed)
Note:
Before using the temperature sensor assembly for this sample application, you will
need to install an end node (see
’Temperature Sensor Assembly Setup’ on page A-4)
