StarLite Description
For a broad introduction to the different types of RF modules and firmware available from
FlexiPanel, refer to DS500, RF Transceiver Selection Guide.
Device Programming
Pixie products are available from distributors pre-loaded with StarLite firmware. Alternatively it
may be loaded onto any Pixie module using a PIC programmer such as the low-cost TEAclipper.
The firmware may be downloaded from www.hexwax.com.
Design Licensing
Design licensing allows you to integrate the Pixie design directly on your main PCB rather than as a
separate module. This delivers exceptional cost savings in terms of labor and parts, and offers you
much greater control over the supply chain.
We require an up-front purchase of a minimum quantity of 2500 encrypted StarLite.wax firmware
licenses, and signature of a confidentiality agreement. In return we will give you a pack containing
Gerber CAD files and bills of materials. Only the encrypted version of the firmware is compatible
with the design supplied.
Contact [e-mail] for more information.
Device Types
There are five types of StarLite device, each with different firmware. The device types are:
In a StarLite network there is one coordinator and up to 255 end devices.
Interoperability
StarLite and StarLite USB have been tested to ascertain they can interoperate with each other. Other
IEEE 802.15.4 devices should be interoperable; however, device-specific issues may need to be
resolved with the technical support services of FlexiPanel and other product providers.
Frequency Channels
StarLite operates in the 2.4GHz frequency band. The coordinator will select one of sixteen channels
during initialization; end devices will scan and find it automatically. Multiple StarLite networks can
coexist without interfering each other. Interference from other 2.4GHz devices (ZigBee, Bluetooth,
WiFi, etc) is negligible.
