CCT24
6.0 Demonstration Procedure
The procedure below provides a quick demonstration of the CCT24 using a CCT24DK
development kit:
1. Confirm that each CCT24 transceiver is installed correctly in an interface board, and that the U.FL
jumpers between the CCT24 radios and the interface boards are installed. Also confirm that a di-
pole antenna is installed on each interface board, and that J14 has a jumper block installed on
each interface board. See Figures 5.4.1, 5.4.2 and 5.4.3 above.
2. Attach the Base (see label on bottom of interface board) to a computer with the DNT Demo
program installed.
3. Place the transceiver/interface boards at least 6 feet (two meters) apart.
4. Start the DNT Demo program.
5. Click the Connect button on the Demo window. This will open a serial port setup dialog box. Set
the baud rate to 9600 (9.6 kb/s) and select the COM port where the Base is connected.
6. At this point the Demo will collect data from the Base, filling in data in the Local Radio column on
the Demo window. The Status Window should also show that the Remote has joined the Base.
7. Click on the drop-down box at the top of the Radio 1 column and select the MAC Address for the
Remote. Next press the Start button using the default 1 s Refresh Delay.
8. The Demo will display updated data on the Remote in the Radio 1 column, including bar graphs
of RSSI signal strength in dBm and percent packet success rate. Adjusting the large pot on the
Remote can be observed on the Potentiometer (ADC1) row.
