3. Hardware Overview
Figure 2 and Figure 3 identify the major components of the Sensor Node and the USB Dongle. Both devices come
preloaded with the firmware for the demo application. When using the demo application, ensure that the printed
antenna on the wireless board is not covered by the user’s fingers. The Sensor Node ships from the factory in a
discharged state. Be sure to fully charge the Node prior to first use. Refer to "8. Additional Information" on page 8
for details and charging times.
The USB Dongle is powered by the PC through the USB connection. Connect the USB Dongle directly to the PC.
No custom drivers need to be installed, as the Dongle is HID-based.
