The three position slide switch (2) controls the CMD_DATA_TYPE line. This
line tells the module that the data coming in on the CDI is either command
data for configuring the module (middle position) or packet data to be
transmitted over the air (top position). The bottom position connects this
line to the DTR line on the USB or RS-232 interface. This allows the PC
software to control the line, giving it the ability to configure the module and
send data.
Test points for CMD_DATA_IN (3) and CMD_DATA_OUT (4) are provided so
that the communications can be monitored.
The PC Software
The kit includes PC software that can be used to configure the module
through the PC interface daughter board. Figure 11 shows the software.
