AVR414: User Guide - ATAVRRZ502 - Accessory Kit 8-bit Features Microcontrollers Introduction to the ATAVRRZ502 hardware. Includes evaluation application that uses the IEEE 802.15.4 library from Atmel. An example on how to establish a peer-to-peer connection. Application Note Supports both the IAR compiler and GCC. 1 Introduction This application note describes the ATAVRRZ502 Accessory Kit (RZ502). The RZ502 is designed for evaluation of the Atmel AT86RF230 2.4 GHz radio transceiver. This radio transceiver fully complies with the IEEE 802.15.4 standard and targets low-power wireless technologies within home, building and industrial automation such as ZigBee. An evaluation application is available together with this document. This application shows how to set up a peer-to-peer network, with two nodes, and send data using the wireless link. Figure 1-1. ATAVRRZ502 Accessory Kit Rev. 8051A-AVR-11/06 2 Getting Started with the ATAVRRZ502 Accessory Kit This section gives an introduction to what the ATAVRRZ502 Accessory Kit contains and its system requirements. At the end brief instructions are given on how to get the Accessory Kit up and running in the shortest amount of time. 2.1 Unpacking the System Kit contents: (2 pcs) RZ502 Radio boards with SMA stub antennas. (2 pcs) ATmega1281V AVR microcontroller in TQFP Package. Technical Library CD. 2.2 System Requirements The minimum hardware and software requirements are: (2 pcs) STK500 (2 pcs) STK501 (2 pcs) 9 pin RS-232 cable (2 pcs) 6-wire cable (2 pcs) 2-wire cable Power Supply for STK500. PC running AVR Studio and with two available RS-232 ports (COM port or USB- to-RS232 bridge). 2.3 Quick Start Guide This section goes through how to get the RZ502 kit and evaluation application up and running in the shortest amount of time. 1. Unpack the ATAVRRZ502 Accessory Kit and ensure that it contains all components listed in subsection 2.1. 2. Ensure that all the components listed in subsection 2.2 is available. 3. Go through the steps in section 4 to assemble the hardware. Repeat this step twice to build both peers. 4. Generate EEPROM file for each peer in the network using the HEXMaker application. How to use this application is described in subsection 5.1. 5. Program the ATmega1281 microcontroller by following the instructions in subsection 5.2. Repeat this step on both peers. 6. Finally, a chat client is available to interface with the evaluation application just programmed into the AVR microcontroller. Go through the instructions in section 6 on how to setup and use the chat client. 2 AVR414 8051A-AVR-11/06
