II-EVB-363 enables you to evaluate the Nano modules without changing anything in
your current development environment. Using a simple terminal program on a PC,
you can issue AT+i commands to the Nano WiReach and get responses.
AT+i commands are used to configure parameter values into iChip’s flash memory
and activate Internet tasks such as Email send/Recieve, sockets, FTP sessions, Web,
and more.
A full description of the AT+i protocol can be found in the AT+i Programmer’s
Manual on the Connect One website at:
http://www.connectone.com/support.asp?did=42
To assist in configuring and evaluating the iChip and the Nano modules, Connect One
supplies the iChipConfig Utility. This is a Windows-based GUI program that contains
intuitive dialog boxes to fully configure iChip. It doesn’t require any knowledge of
AT+i commands. In addition, it contains a local firmware upgrade function.
The iChipConfig Utility also allows you to perform specific Internet communication
tasks such as sending and receiving Emails, activating iChip’s websites, entering
SerialNET mode, and more.
For more information on the iChipConfig Utility and its usage, see the iChip Config
Utility User’s Manual.

Connect One website in the Support section at:

Most frequently iChipConfig connects to the II-EVB-363 though the PC’s standard
RS232 Serial port. The Nano modules also includes a USB Device port, which allows
using a USB connection as an alternative. To enable use of the PC USB port, a virtual
COM USB driver needs to be loaded on the PC. The iChipConfig can then be
configured to use the virtual port. Instructions for configuring the USB drivers on the
PC are given below in Appendix 3.
