Other than for erasing network settings, all 27 characters must be sent for the settings to take effect.
Letter characters must be in upper case. Once completed, an ‘<’ ASCII character will be output on
from TxD and the device will reset.
The following example ASCII string sets the values back to the default, plus sets the MAC address
to 0015C83841000000:
IEEE 802.15.4 Compatibility
StarLite is fully compatible with other IEEE 802.15.4 devices provided no data payloads are greater
than 64 bytes. This limitation is imposed because USB payloads are 64 bytes and applying the
limitation allows for one-to-one correspondence between IEEE 802.15.4 packets and USB packets.
To increase the payload size to the maximum possible (approx 115 bytes), the source code should be
modified or PixieMAC should be used.
Security
Security is not implemented in this version of StarLite.
Copy Protection
To protect against copying, if the StarLite firmware is run on any hardware except FlexiPanel Pixie
products, it will cease to function after approximately two minutes. Steinlaus tags are also included
in the code.
Evaluation
The easiest way to get to know StarLite is with the ZigBee Evaluation Kit available from FlexiPanel.
This will also require a Microchip ICD2 In-Circuit Debugger to program the firmware into the Pixie
/ Pixie Lite supplied.
In the evaluation boards, the I/O pins are connected as follows:
Please note the following:
1. Remove A1-B1, A2-B2, A3-B3 during programming and fit them again after. The configuration

bits are specified in the file “FCS StarLite”. The coordinator should be programmed onto a Pixie
and end devices onto Pixie Lites.
