Application Setup & Operation
The following procedures describe how to set up the RK-5409-5 Reference Kit hardware and
software for creating the Reference Kit’s sample application.
Temperature Sensor Assembly Setup
To install an end node in the temperature sensor assembly (see Figure A-3):
1. Use an Allen wrench to turn in the two set screws holding the cover to the base and
remove the cover.
2. Turn the Power Switch OFF.
3. Remove an end node from one of the kit’s terminal boards and install it on the terminal
board located on the base of the temperature sensor assembly.
4. Turn the Power Switch to ON. The sensor is discovered and displayed by MeshScape
Network Monitor.
5. Replace the cover and back out the two cover set screws to secure the cover in place.
