3 ZFSM-201-EVB-1 STANDALONE DEMONSTRATIONS
3.1
The following demonstration can be performed using two powered ZFSM-201-EVB-1 Evaluation
Boards. No PC is required to perform this test.
Testing the range in the standalone mode can be done by separating the two boards until the
Receiver board stops blinking. However, more effective range demonstrations are described
later on in this document (Section 5.3 and 5.4).
3.2
This demonstration requires only one powered ZFSM-201-EVB-1 evaluation board; no PC is
required.
1) Power each of the evaluation boards by one of three methods (USB, battery or DC Jack).
2) Switch the Power Switch ‘SW6’ so that the Red Power LED (D5) turns on.
3) LED’s 1 through 4 should all turn on and then turn off in sequence.
4) Pressing ‘SWITCH 1’ puts the device into ‘Transmit Range’ mode where the device will continually
5) Between transmissions, the device switches to ‘Receive Ack’ mode where it waits to receive an RF
6) If a valid acknowledgment response is received, the device will blink LED2 once for each receipt.
7) Pressing ‘SWITCH 2’ puts the device into ‘Receive Range’ mode where the device continually
8) The device then switches to ‘Transmit Ack’ mode where it transmits an acknowledgement message
9) If the Transmitter is setup before the Receiver, the Transmit board will blink LED1 only, until the
10) If the Receiver is setup first, it will blink LED2 once, and then wait until the Transmitter is setup. Then
1) Locate the two Variable Resistors (VR1 and VR2) on the board.

Receiver is setup. It will then blink both LED1 and LED2, as will the Receiver board.
both boards will blink both LED1 and LED2.

The ID of the device is set to ‘1010’.
The channel is set to ‘13’.
The power is set to maximum for the transmitted range message, ‘18’ (20dBm).
The device transmits a periodic range message (approx 200/min) and blinks LED1 for each transmission.
The ID of the device is set to ‘2020’.
The channel is set to ‘13’.
The power is set to maximum for the transmission of the acknowledgment message, ‘18’ (20dBm).
If a valid message is received, the device will blink LED2 for each receipt of the message.
