4.5. Quick start example
This section is intended to help the user set-up a quick WLAN network consisting of an ac-
cess point and two Calypso modules and exchange data between the two modules. Minimal
pin and antenna connections have to be done on both the modules as described in sec-
tions
and section
. It is recommended to use the Calypso evaluation kit for quick
tests.
4.5.1. Prerequisites
The following hardware is required to go through the quick start example.
1. Two Calypso evaluation boards.
2. An IEEE 802.11b/g/n compatible access point working in the 2.4 GHz band.
3. Computer with a serial terminal emulator like Tera Term.
4.5.2. Hardware configuration
Make sure that the following jumpers are populated in the corresponding positions on the
EV board. Refer to the Calypso evaluation board specific manual for a complete hardware
description.
1. JP4 to select the USB bus as power supply.
2. JP3 current bridge is set.
3. Jumpers are set across pins 1-2 (
), 3-4 (
), 9-10 (
), 11-12
), 13-14 (
) and 15-16 (
) of the connector JP1.
4. For this example, the AT command terminal mode is used and hence the two
pins shall be connected to
. On the Calypso EV board, this can be
done by connecting pin 12 and 13 on Connector, CON8 to pin 6 or pin 10 of the same
connector.
4.5.3. Setup description
In this example, the two Calypso modules will be connected to the access point and ex-
change a hello (Figure
1. Set-up the access point in IEEE 802.11b/g/n 2.4 GHz infrastructure mode.
2. The access point’s SSID and WPA/WPA2 key(if enabled) will be necessary for module
setup
3. Make sure that a DHCP server is running on the access point or in the same network.
4. Connect the two EV boards to a computer with the serial terminal installed via the USB
interface on the evaluation board.
