USING THE STAND-ALONE DEMO
2.2.1
Setup
There are only a few steps to perform to get the stand-alone demo working:
1. Open the plastic enclosure of the red key fob by carefully prying apart the two
halves with a flat-head screw driver. Observe the correct battery polarity and
insert the coin battery into the holder. Put the key fob back together.
2. To verify that the key fob is properly installed, press any button and the LED
should flash when a button is pressed.
3. Plug in the RF receiver daughter board on the PICtail slot of the demo board.
Make sure that the RF receiver daughter board has the side with the RF receiver
chip facing the center, as shown in Figure 2-1.
