Revision: Dec, 2011 Firmware The module is pre-loaded with the bootloader, which supports serial bootloading of firmware update. The module contains RAEMesh application and comply with the RAE System’s RCS protocol. The module also has built-in RAEMesh Module Command Interface(RMCI). This documentation is focused on the instruction on RMCI interface. The RMCI command interface allows customer to easily access to low level mesh functionality without pain to develop the firmware.

Revision: Dec, 2011 PC communication Please has your serial port debug software installed on the PC. For example: sscom32.exe Microsoft Hyper Terminal is not recommended for this application because it is not good to send characters and commands in Hex. Base on correct setting and connection, you will see following display on your screen when power is applied. GTW: [%A ]RAEMESH-II RM900A 16MHz FwVer:V1.02b on Sep 28 2011 09:52:14 Stack: BC1.10.
