RK-Wi.232FHSS-25/250 Rapid Development Kit
3 Introduction to the RK-Wi.232FHSS Evaluation Software
The software supplied with the RK-Wi.232FHSS RadKit is used to read and set the volatile and non-
volatile registers with the Wi.232FHSS module. Refer to the Wi.232FHSS Users Manual for more
information on the register settings.
3.1 COM Port Setup and Selection.
Upon starting the RK-Wi.232FHSS evaluation software, you will be
presented with a COM port selection dialog box. If you are using the USB
interface, make sure that the evaluation board is already connected to the
computer via the USB cable before you start the software. This will ensure
that the virtual COM port which is assigned to the USB to UART bridge
controller by Windows is visible in the COM port selection list.
The first time you start the RK-Wi.232FHSS evaluation software, the Baud
Rate should be left at 2400 baud, since this is the factory default baud rate
setting for the module.
Tip: There is no way for the RK-Wi.232FHSS evaluation software to detect
which baud rate the module is set to. If you have changed the Non-Volatile
Data Rate register, you will have to select the baud rate you set this register
to when you start the RK-Wi.232FHSS evaluation software.
