3: Getting Started
The system requirements for this demo are as follows:
1. RS-R8C25-2200 Wi-Fi Starter Kit
2. Laptop with
Windows™ 2000/XP/Vista
WLAN interface enabled
JRE 1.6.0 installed – you might require administrator
privileges to install this if it’s not already installed.
3.1: R8C/25 MCU Software
The R8C/25 MCU platform comes preloaded with the demo application
software for connection to an Access Point, LED-control and socket
interface application. It’s also loaded with the API library which is used to
configure the Wi-Fi module and use it to exchange data with a Peer
Laptop/PC. The application software and the library are both present in
the Redpine Signals CD, supplied as part of the kit.
3.2: Demo Application
The Starter kit is supplied with the R8C/25 Demo Application GUI.
The Application is a Java-based application for Windows™ 2000/XP/Vista.
It has to be executed on the Peer Laptop/PC after installing JRE 1.6.0. The
application has two tabs – DEMO and Wi-Fi. These are explained below.
1. This GUI runs on the Laptop/PC and it communicates with the
Starter Kit over the network.
2. The “DEMO” tab is used for LED demo.
3. The “Wi-Fi” tab displays the list of Access Points in the vicinity and
the RSSI value for each Access Point (both as seen by the
Connect-io-n module).
4. The “Wi-Fi” tab can also be used to reconfigure the Starter Kit with
new WLAN and network settings. This is explained in subsequent
sections.
3.3: Test Setup and Evaluation
