Quick guide - IRIS Starter kit IRIS-Starter kit-Quick guide-1a The IRIS Starter kit The IRIS Starter kit is developed to be an introduction to IRIS-systems and a quick problem solver for smaller projects. There are two IRIS Starter kit units in each IRIS Starter kit. The IRIS Starter kit units are preprogrammed with a test setup. Just connect the power cables and there is a small IRIS system ready for a test run.
Quick guide - IRIS Starter kit IRIS-Starter kit-Quick guide-1a The IRIS Starter kit suitcase • 2 IRIS Starter kit units • Evaluation board • IRIS Base • Antenna • 2 Serial cables • 2 AC/DC adapters • 1 CD Getting started with IRIS Starter kit All that are needed for making a small IRIS system are in the IRIS Starter kit. The IRIS Starter kit contains of two IRIS Starter kit units.
Quick guide - IRIS Starter kit IRIS-Starter kit-Quick guide-1a Connect the unit Power External I/O Serial interface Communication check The first thing to do, after connecting the units, is to check the communication. Make sure that both units are connected properly. The IRIS Starter kit units come pre-programmed with a test setup. The checkpoints below are based on the functions in the Test program. For more information on how the Test program works see the IRIS Starter kit – Test programdocument.
Quick guide - IRIS Starter kit IRIS-Starter kit-Quick guide-1a Explore the functions The IRIS units can be used for supervising and controlling external devices. It is vital that the IRIS units configured carefully for optimal function. To get the most out of the IRIS units and the IRIS systems it is important to understand the functions. Connections The IRIS units communicate with each other, via radio networks, and with other device, through inputs, outputs and serial interfaces.
Quick guide - IRIS Starter kit IRIS-Starter kit-Quick guide-1a Events The IRIS units can be setup to react on certain events. An event occurs when, for example, an input that changes value or a timer that reaches its limit. It is possible to add actions to the events to make the IRIS-unit interact with its environment. I/O event An I/O event occurs when a bit masks matches the current status of the inputs, the outputs and the flags. A flag is a variable that is used store earlier events.

Base IRIS-Base – Getting started IRIS-Base is part of the IRIS product series and is developed for integration in other systems. The IRIS series contains several models that provide solutions to all kinds of applications. There are two kind of IRIS-Base. The standard version uses five volts power supply and the low power version uses three volts. All IRIS models can communicate with each other via radio - in pairs or in more complex radio networks.
IRIS-Base About the configuration The setup is on delivery a standard setup made for a quick start and a basic system setup. The serial interface is set to 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity and end of data is detected with a timeout set to 50 ms. All data sent to the serial interface on IRIS-Base will with this setup be sent as broadcast messages over the radio.
