A simple serial interface supports asynchronous data up to 230400 bps. An on-board 3 KB buffer and an error-correcting over-the-air protocol provide smooth data flow and simplify the task of integration with existing applications.

The radio transmission channel is very hostile, corrupted by noise, path loss and interfering transmissions from other radios. Even in a pure interference-free environment, radio performance faces serious degradation through a phenomenon known as multipath fading. Multipath fading results when two or more reflected rays of the transmitted signal arrive at the receiving antenna with opposing phase, thereby partially or completely canceling the desired signal. This is a problem particularly prevalent in indoor installations. In the frequency domain, a multipath 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 1 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 fade can be described as a frequency-selective notch that shifts in location and intensity over time as reflections change due to motion of the radio or objects within its range. At any given time, multipath fades will typically occupy 1% - 2% of the 2.4 GHz band. This means that from a probabilistic viewpoint, a conventional radio system faces a 1% - 2% chance of signal impairment at any given time due to multipath. Spread spectrum reduces the vulnerability of a radio system to interference from both jammers and multipath fading by distributing the transmitted signal over a larger region of the frequency band than would otherwise be necessary to send the information. This allows the signal to be reconstructed even though part of it may be lost or corrupted in transit. Narrowband vs. spread spectrum in the presence of interference Figure 1 1.2. Frequency Hopping vs. Direct Sequence The two primary approaches to spread spectrum are direct sequence (DS) and frequency hopping (FH), either of which can generally be adapted to a given application. Direct sequence spread spectrum is produced by multiplying the transmitted data stream by a much faster, noise-like repeating pattern. The ratio by which this modulating pattern exceeds the bit rate of the baseband data is called the processing gain, and is equal to the amount of rejection the system affords against narrowband interference from multipath and jammers. Transmitting the data signal as usual, but varying the carrier frequency rapidly according to a pseudo-random pattern over a broad range of channels produces a frequency hopping spectrum system. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 2 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 Figure 2 Forms of spread spectrum One disadvantage of direct sequence systems is that due to spectrum constraints and the design difficulties of broadband receivers, they generally employ only a minimal amount of spreading (typically no more than the minimum required by the regulating agencies). For this reason, the ability of DS systems to overcome fading and in-band jammers is relatively weak. By contrast, FH systems are capable of probing the entire band if necessary to find a channel free of interference. Essentially, this means that a FH system will degrade gracefully as the channel gets noisier while a DS system may exhibit uneven coverage or work well until a certain point and then give out completely. Because it offers greater immunity to interfering signals, FH is often the preferred choice for co-located systems. Since direct sequence signals are very wide, they tend to offer few non-overlapping channels, whereas multiple hoppers may interleave with less interference. Frequency hopping does carry some disadvantage in that as the transmitter cycles through the hopping pattern it is nearly certain to visit a few blocked channels where no data can be sent. If these channels are the same from trip to trip, they can be memorized and avoided; unfortunately, this is generally not the case, as it may take several seconds to completely cover the hop sequence during which time the multipath delay profile may have changed substantially. To ensure seamless operation throughout these outages, a hopping radio must be capable of buffering its data until a clear channel can be found. A second consideration of frequency hopping systems is that they require an initial acquisition period during which the receiver must lock on to the moving carrier of the transmitter before any data can be sent, which typically takes several seconds. In summary, frequency hopping systems generally feature greater coverage and channel utilization than comparable direct sequence systems. Of course, other implementation factors such as size, cost, power consumption and ease of implementation must also be considered before a final radio design choice can be made. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 3 M-2410-0000 Rev F As an additional benefit, RF spectrum has been set aside at 2.4 GHz in most countries (including the U.S.) for the purpose of allowing compliant spread spectrum systems to operate freely without the requirement of a site license. This regulatory convenience alone has been a large motivation for the industry-wide move toward spread spectrum. WIT2410 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 4 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 2. RADIO OPERATION 2.1. Synchronization and Registration As discussed above, frequency hopping radios periodically change the frequency at which they transmit. In order for the other radios in the network to receive the transmission, they must be listening to the frequency over which the current transmission is being sent. To do this, all the radios in the net must be synchronized and must be set to the same hopping pattern. In point-to-point or point-to-multipoint arrangements, one radio module is designated as the base station. All other radios are designated remotes. One of the responsibilities of the base station is to transmit a synchronization signal to the remotes to allow them to synchronize with the base station. Since the remotes know the hopping pattern, once they are synchronized with the base station, they know which frequency to hop to and when. Every time the base station hops to a different frequency, it immediately transmits a synchronizing signal. When a remote is powered on, it rapidly scans the frequency band for the synchronizing signal. Since the base station is transmitting over 75 frequencies and the remote is scanning 75 frequencies, it can take several seconds for a remote to synch up with the base station. Once a remote has synchronized with the base station, it must request registration from the base station. The registration process identifies to the base station the remotes from which transmissions will be received and not discarded. Registration also allows tracking of remotes entering and leaving the network. The base station builds a table of serial numbers of registered remotes. To improve efficiency, the 24-bit remote serial number is assigned a 6-bit handle number. Two of these are reserved for system use, thus each base station can register 62 separate remotes. This handle is how user applications will know the remotes. Note that if a remote leaves the coverage area and then re-enters, it may be assigned a different handle. To detect if a remote has gone offline or out of range, the registration must be renewed once every 256 hops. Registration is completely automatic and requires no user application intervention. When the remote is registered, it will receive several network parameters from the base. This allows the base to automatically update these network parameters in the remotes over the air. Once a parameter has been changed in the base, it is automatically changed in the remotes. The parameters automatically changed are hop duration and the duty cycle. At the beginning of each hop, the base station transmits a synchronizing signal. After the synchronizing signal has been sent, the base will transmit any data in its buffer unless data transmit delay has been set. The data transmit delay parameter allows for the transmission of groups of continuous data in transparent mode (protocol mode 0). The amount of data that the base station can transmit per hop is determined by the base slot 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 5 M-2410-0000 Rev F 2.2. Data Transmission WIT2410 size parameter. The maximum amount of data sent by a base station per hop is 208 bytes. If there is no data to be sent, the base station will not transmit until the next frequency. The operation for remotes is similar to the base station without the synchronizing signal. The amount of data a remote can send on one hop is dependent upon the hop duration, the base slot size and the number of registered remotes. 212 bytes per hop is the maximum data length a remote can transmit per hop, subject to limitations imposed by the hop duration, the base slot size and the number of registered remotes. A detailed explanation of this relationship is provided in Section 2.2.3. Minimum data length and data transmit delay operate the same as with the base station. Except for the registration process which occurs only when a remote logs onto the network, the whole procedure is repeated on every frequency hop. Refer to the section on Modem Commands for complete details on parameters affecting the transmission of data. The WIT2410 supports two network configurations: point-to-point and point-to-
multipoint. In a point-to-point network, one radio is set up as the base station and the other radio is set up as a remote. In a point-to-multipoint network, a star topology is used with the radio set up as a base station acting as the central communications point and all other radios in the network set up as remotes. In this configuration, all communications take place between the base station and any one of the remotes. Remotes cannot communicate directly with each other. It should be noted that point-to-point mode is a subset of point-to-multipoint mode and therefore there is no need to specify one mode or the other. 2.2.1. Point-to-Point In point-to-point mode, unless data transmit delay or minimum data length have been set, the base station will transmit whatever data is in its buffer limited to 208 bytes or as limited by the base slot size. If the base station has more data than can be sent on one hop, the remaining data will be sent on subsequent hops. In addition to the data, the base station adds some information to the transmission over the RF link. It adds the address of the remote to which it is transmitting, even though in a point-to-point mode there is only one remote. It also adds a sequence number to identify the transmission to the remote. This is needed in the case of acknowledging successful transmissions and retransmitting unsuccessful transmissions. Also added is a 24-bit CRC to allow the base to check the received transmission for errors. When the remote receives the transmission, it will acknowledge the transmission if it was received without errors. If no acknowledgment is received, the base station will retransmit the same data on the next frequency hop. In point-to-point mode, a remote will transmit whatever data is in its buffer up to the limit of its maximum data length. If desired, minimum data length and data transmit delay can 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 6 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 also be set, which force the remote to wait until a certain amount of data is available or the specified delay is exceeded before transmitting. If the remote has more data than can be sent on one hop, it will send as much data as possible as a packet, adding its own address, a packet sequence number and 24-bit CRC. These additional bytes are transparent to the user application if the protocol mode is 00 (which is the default). In the event a remote has more data to send, the data will be sent on subsequent hops. If the transmission is received by the base station without errors, the base station will acknowledge the transmission. If the remote does not receive an acknowledgment, it will retransmit the data on the next frequency hop. To the user application, acknowledgments and retransmissions all take place behind the scenes without the need for user intervention. The WIT2410 has a point-to-point direct mode which fixes the remote radios handle at 30H. This mode is recommended for point-to-point applications, especially if the remote is likely to periodically leave and re-enter the coverage area of the base. See the section on Network Commands for details of this mode. 2.2.2. Point-to-Multipoint In point-to-multipoint mode, data sent from the user application to the base station must be packetized by the user application unless the remote device can distinguish between transmissions intended for it and transmissions intended for other remote devices. This is necessary to identify the remote to which the base station should send data. When the user packet is received by the remote, if the remote is in transparent mode (protocol mode 0), the packetization bytes are stripped by the remote. In this instance the remote host receives just data. If the remote is not in transparent mode, the remote host will receive the appropriate packet header as specified by the remotes protocol mode. Refer to the section Protocol Modes for details on the various packet formats. When a remote sends data to a base station in point-to-multipoint mode, the remote host does not need to perform any packetization of the data. Remotes can operate in transparent mode even though the base is operating in a packet mode. The remote will add address, sequence and CRC bytes as in the point-to-point mode. When the base station receives the data, the base station will add packetization header bytes according to its protocol mode setting. 2.2.3. Handle Assignment Handles are used to reduce overhead by not sending the unique 24-bit serial number ID of a remote when sending or receiving data. The use of the various protocol modes causes the base radio to issue CONNECT packets when a new remote registers with the base. In addition to indicating the presence of a new remote, the CONNECT packets provide the current relationship between remote serial numbers and handles. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 7 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 When a remote links to a base and requests registration, it requests by default that it be assigned handle 30H. This default request can be changed by the Set Default Handle command. If that handle is not currently in use by another remote, the base will assign that handle to the remote. If the requested handle is already in use by another remote, the base will assign the next higher handle that is available. Thus, if a remote requests handle 30H and that handle is already assigned, the base will assign the remote handle 31H if that is available. If 31H is already assigned, the base will assign handle 32H is that is available and so on. When a remote leaves the coverage area of the base or otherwise loses link, e.g. the remote was turned off or put into sleep mode, the base detects this event when the remote does not renew its registration within 255 hops. With the default setting of 10msec per hop, this could be as along as 2.55 seconds. If within this time the remote re-establishes link with the base, the previous handle assigned to this remote will still be marked active in the base radio. Thus the remote will be assigned a new handle. If the base radio is in one of the protocol modes, a new CONNECT packet will be issued indicating the current handle assigned to the remote. The remote is identified by the serial number that is contained in the CONNECT packet. If the radio is to be used in a point-to-point mode where there is only one base and one remote, using the point-to-point mode command of the radios will override this handle mechanism and always assign the remote the same handle. 2.2.4. TDMA Operation For applications needing guaranteed bandwidth availability, the TDMA operation of the WIT2410 can meet this requirement. In the WIT2410 TDMA scheme, each remote has an assigned time slot during which it can transmit. The base station time slot is set independently of the remote time slots through the Set Base Slot Size command. The base station assigns each remote a time slot and informs the remotes of the size of the time slot. All remote time slots are the same size that is determined by the number of remotes registered with the base station. The slot size is a dynamic variable that changes as the number of registered remotes changes. The remotes are continually updated with the time slot size. This approach continually maximizes the data throughput. The base station divides the amount of time available per hop by the number of registered remotes up to a maximum of 16 times slots per hop. If the number of registered remotes is greater than 16, the time slots will be spread across the required number of hops. For networks with more than 16 possible remotes, the Set Duty Cycle command must be used to specify a duty cycle -- the number of hops over which the time slots must be spread. For 1 to 16 remotes, no duty cycle is required; for 17 to 32 remotes a duty cycle of at least is required; and for 33 to 62 remotes a duty cycle of or more is necessary. An added benefit of using the power save mode to set a duty cycle is improved average current consumption efficiency. Refer to the Status Commands section for details of this command. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 8 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 When setting up a network, keep in mind that time slot length, maximum packet size and hop duration are all interrelated. The hop duration parameter will determine the time slot size and the maximum amount of data that can be transmitted per hop by the remotes. There is a hard limit of the absolute maximum amount of data that can be sent on any given hop of 212 bytes regardless of any parameters. (Note that this is different than the 208 byte maximum for the base station.) The base station requires 1.7 ms overhead for tuning, the synchronization signal and parameter updating, as well as a guard time of 500s between each remote slot. Thus the amount of time allocated per remote slot is roughly:
hop duration base slot 1.7ms - ( # of registered remotes-1)500s
( # of registered remotes) Take for example a network comprised of a base station and 10 remotes. A hop duration of 10 ms is chosen. We decide that the base station needs to be able to send up to 32 bytes each hop (equivalent to a capacity for the base of ~ 32 kbps). Counting the 1.7 ms overhead for the base packet and making use of the fact that our RF rate is 460.8 kbps, we determine that the base slot requires approximately:
328 460.8kbps
+ 1.7 ms = 2.3 ms Each remote time slot will be:
10 ms 2.3 ms (9)0.5 ms
= 0.32 ms 10 0.32 ms 17.36s
= 18 bytes of data per hop. From our RF data rate of 460.8kbps we see that it takes 17.36 s to send a byte of data, so each remote will be able to send up to Note that the 18 bytes is the actual number of data bytes that can be sent. If the WIT2410 is using a protocol mode, the packet overhead does not need to be considered. So in this example, the total capacity per remote would be:
If we figure a minimum margin of safety for lost packets and retransmissions of about 20%, we see that this would be more than sufficient to support 14.4 kbps of continuous data per remote. It is also useful to remember that the asynchronous data input to the WIT2410 is stripped of its start and stop bits during transmission by the radio, yielding a
"bonus" of 10/8 or 25% in additional capacity. The above calculations are provided as a means of estimating the capacity of a multipoint WIT2410 network. To determine the precise amount of capacity, you can actually set up 18 bytes 10 ms
= 18 kbps 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 9 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 the radio system and then query the maximum data length from one of the remotes in control mode to discover its exact setting. Divide this number by the hop duration as above to get the remote's exact capacity. 2.2.5. Full Duplex Communication From an application perspective, the WIT2410 communicates in full duplex. That is, both the user application and the remote terminal can be transmitting data without waiting for the other to finish. At the radio level, the base station and remotes do not actually transmit at the same time. If they did, the transmissions would collide. As discussed earlier, the base station transmits a synchronization signal at the beginning of each hop followed by a packet of data. After the base station transmission, the remotes will transmit. Each base station and remote transmission may be just part of a complete transmission from the user application or the remote terminal. Thus, from an application perspective, the radios are communicating in full duplex mode since the base station will receive data from a remote before completing a transmission to the remote. 2.2.6. Error-free Packet Transmission Using ARQ The radio medium is a hostile environment for data transmission. In a typical office or factory environment, 1% - 2% of the 2.4GHz frequency band may be unusable at any given time at any given station due to noise, interference or multipath fading. For narrowband radio systems (and also many spread spectrum radio systems which use direct sequence spreading), this would imply a loss of contact on average of over 30 seconds per hour per station. The WIT2410 overcomes this problem by hopping rapidly throughout the band in a pseudo-random pattern. If a message fails to get through on a particular channel, the WIT2410 simply tries again on the next channel. Even if two thirds of the band is unusable, the WIT2410 can still communicate reliably. Data input to the WIT2410 is broken up by the radio into packets. A 24-bit checksum is attached to each packet to verify that it was correctly received. If the packet is received correctly, the receiving station sends an acknowledgment, or ACK, back to the transmitting station. If the transmitter doesn't receive an ACK, at the next frequency hop it will attempt to send the packet again. When ARQ is enabled, the transmitting radio will attempt to send a packet packet attempts limit times before discarding the packet. A value of 00H disables ARQ. When it is disabled, any transmission received with errors is discarded. It is the responsibility of the user application to track missing packets. A second parameter, ARQ Mode, allows the choice between using ARQ to resend unsuccessful transmissions or always sending a transmission packet attempts limit times regardless of the success or failure of any given transmission. All of this error detection and correction is transparent to the user application. All the user application sees is error-free data from the modem. However, if the ARQ mode is disabled, transmissions with errors are discarded, and missing data detection will be the 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 10 M-2410-0000 Rev F responsibility of the user application. Refer to the Protocol Commands section for complete details. WIT2410 2.3. Modes of Operation 2.3.1. Control and Data Modes The WIT2410 has two modes of operation: Control mode and Data mode. When in Control Mode, the various radio and modem parameters can be modified. When in Data Mode, only data can be transmitted. The default mode is Data Mode. There are two ways to enter Control Mode. The first way is to assert the Configure (CFG) pin on the modem. Upon entering Control Mode, the modem will respond with a > prompt. After each command is entered, the modem will again respond with a > prompt. As long as the CFG pin is asserted, data sent to the modem will be interpreted as command data. Once the CFG pin is deasserted, the modem will return to Data Mode. The second method for entering Control Mode is to send the escape sequence :wit2410
(all lower case) followed by a carriage return. In the default mode, the escape sequence is only valid immediately after power up or after deassertion of the Sleep pin on the modem. The modem will respond in the same way with a > prompt. To return to Data Mode, enter the Exit Modem Control Mode command, z>, or assert and deassert the Sleep pin. There are three modes for the escape sequence, controlled by the Set Escape Sequence Mode command, zc:
The zc2 mode setting is useful if the user application has a need to change the modem settings "on the fly". In this mode the escape sequence is always enabled and may be sent at any time after a pause of at least 20ms. The modem will respond in the same way as when in the default mode. It is necessary to issue the Exit Modem Control Mode command, z>, before resuming data transmission. The escape sequence must be interpreted as data until the last character is received and as such may be transmitted by the modem to any listening modems. zc = 0 Escape sequence disabled zc = 1 Escape sequence available once at startup (default setting) zc = 2 Escape sequence available at any time 2.3.2. Sleep Mode To save power consumption for intermittent transmit applications, the WIT2410 supports a Sleep Mode. Sleep Mode is entered by asserting the Sleep pin on the modem interface. While in Sleep Mode, the modem consumes less than 50A. This mode allows the radio to be powered off while the terminal device remains powered. After leaving Sleep Mode, the radio must re-synchronize with the base station and re-register. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 11 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 2.3.3. Low Power Mode and Duty Cycling To conserve power, WIT2410 remotes power down the receiver and transmitter between hops when not in use. Base stations must remain active all the time to handle any transmission from any remote. Remotes can save even more power by enabling the duty cycle feature. This feature causes a remote to power down for 2N frequency hops where 1/2N is the duty cycle. Rather than attempting to transmit on every frequency hop when data is in the transmit buffer, a remote will attempt to transmit only every 2N hops. Roughly speaking, this will proportionately reduce the average power consumption while increasing average latency. When there are more than 16 remotes being operated, duty cycling must be enabled since a maximum of 16 time slots is available per hop. When a remote radio is powered up but is out of range of a base station, it will continuous scan the frequency bands for the presence of a base radio. During this scanning the radio can consume up to 80mA of current. A low power seek mode is available in which the remote radios seek base stations only 50% of the time. This will reduce current consumption by about 50% but will double the time it can take a remote to link with a base up to 4 seconds. 2.3.4. RF Flow Control Mode Because of slight differences in baud rates between transmitting and receiving hosts, when sending large amounts of data (100s of KB) in one direction in a point-to-point application, it is possible to overrun the receive buffer of the receiving radio. For example a nominal 115.2Kbaud at the transmitting radios host might really be 115,201 and at the receiving radios host it might be 115,199. This is similar to a situation where the transmitting radio is sent data at a higher baud rate than the baud rate at which data is received by the receiving host. To compensate for the variations in nominal baud rates, the WIT2410 supports an RF flow control mode for point-to-point operation. In this mode, when the receive buffer of the receiving WIT2410 is close to full, the receiving WIT2410 stops acknowledging transmissions. The transmitting radio is set to infinite retries which invokes the RF flow control mode (See Set Packet Attempts Limit in Section 5.3). The receiving radio will not begin acknowledging transmissions from the transmitting radio until more room in the receive buffer has become available. This will cause data in the transmit buffer of the transmitting radio to back up. If it backs up to the point where the transmit buffer fills up, the transmitting radio will deassert CTS stopping data from the transmitting radios host device. Once room is available in the receiving radios buffer, the receiving radio will begin acknowledging transmissions from the transmitting radio allowing the transmitting radios buffer to begin to empty which will cause the transmitting radio to reassert CTS. Either one or both of the radios in a point-to-
point installation can be configured for the RF flow control. If this mode is invoked in a point-to-multipoint installation, communications with all radios will be stopped when any one radios receive buffer becomes full. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 12 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 2.3.5. Co-Existing with 802.11b Networks In some cases, if a WIT2410-based network is located in close proximity to an 802.11b network, the WIT2410-based network can interfere with the 802.11b network. To avoid causing this interference, the WIT2410 radio supports a selection of hopping patterns that avoid the various 802.11b direct sequence channels. These limited band hopping patterns allow WIT2410-based networks to be used with 802.11b networks without impacting the performance of the 802.11b networks. The hopping pattern is selected using the pe command. Please refer to the section 5.3 Protocol Commands for details. 2.3.6. European Union Settings When operating the WIT2410 in France, a limited frequency mode must be selected. pe values of 5, 6 or 7 may be used. To select the limited frequency band pe = 5, at the >

The limited frequency operation will take effect immediately and will be saved into memory for use when power is cycled. Use of the WIT2410 within the European Union is limited to a maximum transmit power including antenna gain of 20dBm. If gain antennas are to be used, the low power setting of the WIT2410 must be selected. This setting sets the transmit power at the antenna connector to 10dBm. In this setting a maximum of 10dB of antenna gain may be used. To select low power mode, at the > configuration mode prompt enter:

2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 13 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 3. PROTOCOL MODES In point-to-point applications, it is generally desired that the radios operate in a transparent mode. That is, raw unformatted data is sent from the host to the radio and is received as raw data from the receiving end. The addressing and error detection and correction are still performed by the radios, but it is transparent to the user application. To set up a point-to-point network, one radio has to be set up as a base station. When the radios are powered on, the base station will send out the synchronization signal at the beginning of each hop. The remote will synchronize with the base and automatically request registration. Once the remote is registered, the radios can transmit data. Protocol mode operation is available in point-to-point mode if desired. If the base station is to be responsible for directing data to a specific remote in point-to-
multipoint mode, the data sent to the base station by the user application must adhere to a packet format. This allows transmissions from the base station to be directed to a specific remote. Data received by a base station from a remote is similarly formatted to identify to the user application the remote that sent the transmission. The remotes may still use transparent mode without formatting to send data to the base, if desired. The WIT2410 supports 10 protocol formats that are described in detail below. The protocol format is selected through the Set Protocol Mode command. Base and remote radios can use protocol modes to insure that a packet is transmitted to the base without being broken up over multiple hops. The data length value in the data packet becomes the effective minimum packet length and maximum packet length for that packet. Note that if the remote data length is set to a number of bytes that is longer than the number of bytes that can be transmitted by a remote on a single hop, the packet will be discarded. For the base, this value is set by the Set Base Slot Size command. For remotes this value is dynamically available through the Get Maximum Data Length command or may be calculated based on the maximum number of remotes that can ever be registered at one time. See Sections 5.3 and 2.2.3 respectively. Also note that using protocol modes effectively disables Data Transmit Delay. This means that a packet will not be transmitted until the entire packet has been sent to the radio, regardless of the amount of time it takes. If the remote hosts can determine what data is directed to them in point-to-multipoint mode, the data can be sent to the base station without using a packet format. In this situation, broadcast mode is selected at the base station by using the Set Default Handle and selecting 3FH as the default handle. In this mode, the automatic retransmission of unsuccessful transmissions is disabled. This is required since all of the remote modems will attempt to acknowledge each base transmission when ARQ is enabled. Transmissions that are received with errors are discarded by the radio. The remote devices must be able to detect a missing packet and request a retransmission by the base device. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 14 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 Protocol Modes Definitions mode 00 mode 01 mode 02 mode 04 Transparent mode used for point-to-point networks or multipoint remotes; does not support any packet types.

Note on Using Protocol Mode 4 An important difference between the WIT2400 and the WIT2410 is the dynamic assignment of time slots and handles in the WIT2410. The WIT2400 required that each remote be configured with a static address which distinguished one remote from another. In the WIT2410, remotes are distinguished by their factory-assigned serial number. When using protocol Mode 4 in the WIT2410, the static address of the WIT2400 is replaced with the current handle of the WIT2410. In point-to-multipoint configurations, a remotes handle is not guaranteed to remain the same if the remote drops link with the base and then re-establishes link. In a point-to-point system, the point-to-point mode of the WIT2410 can be set to guarantee the remote handle does not change. If protocol Mode 4 is used, the data stream being transmitted from the remotes to the base should contain information indicating the remote sending the data as the handle assigned to the remote can change when the link to the base is dropped and re-established. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 16 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 0000 0010 00HH HHHH LLLL LLLL <0-208 bytes data> 0000 0011 0000 0010 0000 0000 LLLL LLLL <0-212 bytes data> 0000 0011 3.1.

The base then assigns the remote a handle value, may or may not assign it a dedicated time slice depending on the user settings, and notifies the user application of the new remote with a connect packet. The network number of the last base the remote was connected to is given to aid user software in resending orphan packets that may have been sent to the remote's previous cell.

Interfacing to 5 Volt Systems The modem interface signals on the WIT2410 are 3.3 volt signals. To interface to 5 volt signals, the resistor divider network shown below must be placed between the 5 volt signal outputs and the WIT2410 signal inputs. The output voltage swing of the WIT2410 3.3 volt signals is sufficient to drive 5 volt logic inputs. WIT2410 2200 From 5v Output 4.2. Evaluation Unit and OEM Module Differences To 3.3v Input 4300 4.3. Three Wire Operation The evaluation unit has an RS-232 transceiver that translates RS-232 level signals to 3.3 volt signals for input into the OEM module inside the evaluation unit. A typical schematic is shown in Appendix 7.5. The OEM module does not have any type of RS-
232 transceiver and cannot handle the RS-232 voltages. This allows the OEM module to be easily integrated into any 3.3 volt system without any logic signal translation. In order for the OEM module to function properly several pins need to be driven low or tied to ground. Pin 5 (RTS) and pin 6 (SLEEP) need to be pulled to ground on the 16-pin male header. If you have the OEM module interfaced to an RS-232 transceiver, RTS and DTR need to be pulled high on the transceiver side. In the evaluation unit, RTS and DTR are pulled high on the transceiver side so the evaluation unit will work with these signals not connected. The WIT2410 can be operated in a three wire configuration using just TxD, RxD and Ground. To operate the WIT2410 in this configuration, the Sleep and RTS signals must be tied to ground. These signals are pulled up on the WIT2410 module and if left disconnected will put the radio into sleep mode and RTS will be deasserted. The WIT2410 does not support software flow control (XON/XOFF). Thus when using a three wire configuration, there is no flow control. The radio configuration and/or the application must insure the transmit and receive buffers do not overflow. The WIT2410 has a 2048-byte transmit buffer and a 1024-byte receive buffer. For example, the default settings for the base slot size and hop duration are 08H and 90H respectively. The 08H base slot size allows the base to send 32 bytes of data per hop. The 90H hop duration provides a 10ms hop dwell time. These default settings provide a base throughput of 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 20 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 40kbps (Since the over the air transmission is synchronous, the 32kbps synchronous over the air rate is equivalent to 40kbps asynchronous into the radio serial port). If the base transmits continuously at a higher rate than this, unless the default settings are changed, the transmit buffer will eventually overflow. To allow a higher base throughput, either increase the base slot size or the hop duration or both. A similar analysis needs to be performed for the remote radios. Refer to Section 2.2.3 TDMA Mode for the remote throughput calculation. 4.4. Power-On Reset Requirements The WIT2410 has an internal reset circuit that provides a reset signal to the microprocessor if the supply voltage to the WIT2410 falls below 2.7 volts. Operation of the microprocessor at voltages below this voltage is unspecified and can result in corruption of the program memory. When the radio is first powered on, there is an inrush current in excess of 250mA. The power supply in the host must be capable of sourcing this current without the voltage falling below 2.7 volts at the radio. Failure of the power supply to meet this requirement can result in motorboating of the radio where the inrush current of the radio pulls the supply voltage below 2.7 volts causing the reset circuit to fire which resets the radio removing the current requirement. Once the voltage recovers to a level above 2.7 volts, the reset signal is removed from the radio which causes the inrush current which causes the voltage to drop causing the reset circuit to fire and so on. If the host circuitry has a reset circuit that generates a reset signal to the radio anytime the power supply voltage falls below 2.7 volts, the on-board reset circuit can be disabled. Cirronet recommends leaving the reset circuit enabled unless it causes a problem due to a soft turn-on of the power supply voltage by the host. Please contact Cirronet Technical Support for details on disabling the reset circuit. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 21 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 5. MODEM COMMANDS The WIT2410 is configured and controlled through a series of commands. These commands are sent to the modem directly when the modem is in Control Mode when the modem is in Data Mode if the escape sequence is enabled. The command syntax is the same for either method, a one- or two-letter command followed by one or more parameters. The modem will respond with a two-byte message that indicates the new modem parameter value. The commands are loosely grouped into five different categories: Serial commands, Network commands, Protocol commands, Status commands and Memory commands. Each command is described in detail below. In the descriptions, brackets ([,]) are used to denote a set of optional arguments. Vertical slashes (|) separate selections. For example, given the string wn[?|0..3f], some legal commands are wn?, wn0, wn3 and wna. Most commands which set a parameter also have a ? option which causes the modem to respond with the current parameter setting, e.g., wn? Each modem command must be followed by either a carriage return or a line feed. 5.1. Serial Commands These commands affect the serial interface between the modem and the host.

This command takes effect immediately and will require adjusting the host serial rate to agree. Nonstandard rates may be programmed by entering a data rate divisor computed with the following formula:
DIVISOR = (230400/RATE)-1 Round all non-integer values down. Set Protocol Mode Enables the base station to operate in a multipoint network. Depending on the user application, more or less acknowledgment may be desired by the application. Remotes can operate in transparent mode even though the base station is operating in one of the nontransparent modes. When using a protocol mode, make sure to count in packet overhead when calculating network performance. Refer to the section on Protocol Modes for details on each format. 5.2.

(remote only) 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 23 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 Set Transceiver Mode Sets modem operation as either base station or remote. Default is remote. Set Default Handle Sets handle number between 1 and 62 inclusive for a remote. This handle will override the automatic handle assignment by the base station. This command can be used in applications where it is desired to have specific modems have specific handles. When specified for the base, the default handle determines which remote it will address when transparent protocol mode is in effect. When 3FH is specified for the base, broadcast mode is entered. Enable Global Network Mode For networks with multiple base stations, remotes are ordinarily only able to link to one base station, set by the hopping pattern. Mode 1 enables the global mode that allows remotes to link to any base station they can hear, acquiring whatever hop pattern is required. In this mode a remote can only change base stations once it is no longer registered with a base station. Set Lockout Key Allows further network segregation beyond the network number. This feature allows multiple co-located networks in which global roaming is enabled. In global roaming, a remote is allowed to link to any base regardless of the network number as long as the lockout key agrees. By using different lockout keys, the bases to which remotes link can be limited or segregated. Set Hopping Pattern The WIT2410 has 64 preprogrammed hopping patterns (also referred to as network numbers). By using different hopping patterns, nearby or co-located networks can avoid interfering with each others transmissions. Even if both networks tried to use the same frequency, on the next hop they would be at different frequencies. Set Transmit Power The WIT2410 has two preset transmit power levels, 10mW (10dBm) and 100mW
(20dBm). Control of the transmit power is provided through this command. Default is 100mW. Read Receive Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) This command reports the relative signal strength averaged over the last 10 hops. This command returns a one byte value that is proportional to received signal strength and can range from 00H to FFH. Typical values range from 30H to 80H where the lower the number the lower the received signal strength and the higher the number the higher the received signal strength. This is a relative indication and does not directly correspond to a field strength number. This is available only at the remotes as the base station is the only source that transmits on a regular basis. Plus, in a point-to-multipoint network the base will receive different signal strengths from each remote. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 24 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 Set Point-to-Point Direct Mode Sets point-to-point mode that is recommended for point-to-point applications, especially where the remote radio is mobile and may leave and re-enter the range of the base. This mode fixes the remote handle assignment to always be 30H and improves the re-
registration process. Must be set in both base and remote radios. Set Range Optimization (remote only) This command applies an adjustment factor to the over-the-air timing of remotes to compensate for the effects of propagation delay at long ranges. The default setting of 00H is suitable for ranges of 0 to 0.8 miles (1287 m), with optimal performance at 0.1 miles (162m). Each increment of this parameter adds 0.1 miles (162 m) to the working range. Thus the optimal and max ranges are determined by:
optimal = 0.1mi + 0.1mi x dx = 0.17km + 0.17km x dx max = 0.8mi + 0.1mi x dx = 1.33km = 0.17km x dx The following table presents various values of dx and the associated optimal and max ranges. dx setting 00H 01H 04H 06H 09H 13H 31H 45H 64H C8H FAH range:

(base only) Note: Incorrect setting of these parameters may result in reduced throughput or loss of data packets. Set Alternative Frequency Band When set to 1, limits the operating RF channel set to the 2448 to 2473MHz frequency band for compliance with French regulatory standards. When set to 2, sets appropriate operation for Spain. When set to 3, sets appropriate operation for Japan. This setting 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 26 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 should be set to 0, for FCC-compliant operation in the US (this is the default). For Canadian operation, set this parameter to 4. Additional 25 channel bands have been provided to avoid hopping through the various 802.11b channels. If the WIT2410 is to be used in close proximity to 802.11b networks, these alternative hopsets can be used to avoid interfering with the 802.11b networks. Set Hop Duration Sets the length of time the transceiver spends on each frequency channel. A smaller value will allow the remote to lock on to the base signal faster at system startup, and will generally decrease packet latency. A larger value increases network capacity, due to decreased overhead in channel switching. The hop duration is specified in 69.4s increments. The default value of 90H corresponds to a duration of 10ms. The maximum value of FEH is 17.627ms. For best results, do not specify a duration of less than 3 ms. This value only needs to be set in the base which broadcasts the parameter to all remotes. However, link time can be reduced if this value is also programmed into the remotes, which use it as a starting value when scanning for the base. Set Minimum Data Length This sets the minimum threshold number of bytes required to form a packet in transparent mode. The radio will wait until the data transmit delay elapses before sending a data packet with less than this number of bytes. Can be used to keep short, intermittent transmissions contiguous. In packet modes, the length parameter in the data packet will override this value (See Section 3.1). This value is subject to the maximum data length even in packet mode. See Get Maximum Data Length below. Get Maximum Data Length (remote only, read only) This parameter indicates the largest number of bytes that a remote will transmit per hop, based on the size of the slot it has been allocated by the base. In general more remotes mean less data can be transmitted per remote. By reading this parameter and dividing by the hop duration, the remote's data rate capacity can be determined. Attempting to send protocol mode packets longer than maximum data length will result in the packet being discarded without being sent. See Section 2.3.3 on the tradeoffs between hop duration and data length. Set Maximum Number of Remotes (base only) This parameter limits the number of remotes that can register with a given base. The default is 62 remotes which is the maximum number of remotes that can be registered with a base at one time. This command is useful when used in conjunction with global roaming for load balancing when base stations are collocated. It is also useful to assure a minimum remote throughput. Set Packet Attempts Limit If ARQ Mode is set to 0, sets the number of times the radio will attempt to send an unsuccessful transmission before discarding it. If ARQ Mode is set to 1, it is the number of times every transmission will be sent, regardless of success or failure of a given 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 27 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 attempt. When this parameter is set to FFH, RF flow control mode is entered for transmissions from the radio (See Section 2.3.4). This mode can be entered for one or both radios in a point-to-point system. When used in a point-to-point system the wu parameter should be set to 1. Using this mode in a point-to-multipoint system will stop transmissions to all radios when any one radio has a full buffer or if the base radio attempts to send data to a remote that has recently (<2.5 seconds) left the range of the base. Set Data Transmit Delay When used in conjunction with the minimum data length parameter, this sets the amount of time from the receipt of a first byte of data from the host until the radio will transmit in transparent mode. Default is 00H which causes transmission to occur without any delay. When a host is sending a group of data that needs to be sent together, setting this parameter will provide time for the group of data to be sent by the host before the radio transmits. If the length of data to be sent together is longer than the time slot can send, the data will not be sent together but will be broken up over multiple hops. The length of time the radio will wait is equal to the specified value times the hop duration. Set Slot Assignment Mode (base station only) Sets whether the base station will assign remote transmit slots dynamically, based on the number of remotes currently registered or whether the base station will assign remote transmit slots statically, based on the maximum number of remotes parameter. If static slot assignment is selected, make sure maximum number of remotes is correctly set. Otherwise remote transmit performance will suffer as transmit time will be reserved for remotes that may not exist. The dynamic assignment mode will generally be preferred;
however, the static assignment mode will result in a static maximum data length parameter. Set Base Slot Size (base station only) Sets the amount of time allocated for transmission on each hop for the base station time slot in 69.4s increments, corresponding to 4 bytes per unit. Maximum value is 34H which corresponds to 208 bytes. If using a protocol mode, attempting to send a packet with a length longer than this setting will cause the packet to be discarded. Set ARQ Mode Sets ARQ mode when set to 0 which is the default. In this mode the radio will resend an unsuccessful transmission until either successful or packet attempt limit attempts have been made. When set to 1 selects redundant transmit mode that will send every transmission packet attempt limit times regardless of success or failure of any given attempt. When redundant transmit mode is used, receiving radios will discard all subsequent retransmissions once the transmission has been successfully received. Thus the receiving host will receive just one copy of the transmission. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 28 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 5.4. Status Commands These commands deal with general interface aspects of the operation of the WIT2410. Command zb[?|0|1]

(remote only) Banner Display Disable Enables or disables display of the banner string and revision code automatically at power-
up. May be disabled to avoid being mistaken for data by the host. Set Escape Sequence Mode Enables or disables the ability to use the in-data-stream escape sequence method of accessing Control Mode by transmitting the string ":wit2410". When this mode is set to 1, the escape sequence only works immediately after reset (this is the default). When set to 2, the escape sequence may be used at any time in the data stream when preceded by a pause of 20 ms. For backwards compatibility with the WIT2400, the string
":wit2400" is also accepted for entering Control Mode. Note that the escape sequence must be interpreted as data by the radio until the last character is received, and as such will be generally be transmitted to a receiving radio station, if any. Read Factory Serial Number High, Middle and Low Bytes. These read only commands return one of the three bytes of the unique factory-set serial number, which are also visible in the startup banner. Set Duty Cycle Allows reduced power consumption by having a remote wake up only every 2N hops to receive and transmit. Power consumption is roughly proportional to the duty cycle selected. For example, if N=2, the remote will wake up every fourth hop. Power 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 29 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 consumption will be roughly the consumption as when N=0. This parameter must be set to the appropriate value when more than 16 remotes are in use. Enable Low Power Acquisition Mode. When a remote is searching for a base to acquire and register with, it scans the frequency band very rapidly. This mode consumes about 80mA of current during this mode. To reduce the frequency consumption when a remote is in acquisition mode, a low power acquisition mode is provided. In this mode, the remote only scans the frequency band every other hop. This will reduce the average current consumption during acquisition to about 40mA. The tradeoff is it can take twice as long to acquire and register with a base, or up to 4 seconds. 5.5. Memory Commands The WIT2410 allows the user to store a configuration in nonvolatile memory, which is loaded during the initialization period every time the radio is powered up. Note that changes to the serial port baud rate from recalling the factory defaults or recalling memory will not take effect until DTR is toggled or power to the radio is cycled. Command m0 m<

Recall Factory Defaults Recall Memory Store Memory Display Modified Parameters Description Recall Factory Defaults Resets the WIT2410 to its factory default state. This is useful for testing purposes or if there is a problem in operation of the system and the configuration is suspect. Use the Store Memory command afterwards if you wish the factory default settings to be remembered the next time you cycle power or reset the radio. Recall Memory Useful for restoring the power-on settings after experimenting with temporary changes to data rate, protocol or network parameters, etc. Store Memory This command is necessary after any command to change the data rate, transceiver address, or other radio setting that you wish to make permanent. Display Modified Parameters This command lists all parameter settings that are different from the factory default settings. This will list changed parameters whether or not they have been stored with the m> command. Note that issuing this command will cause the radio to lose link with the base and will cause all remotes to lose link when issued to the base radio. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 30 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 5.6.

WIT2410 DEVELOPERS KIT The WIT2410 Developers Kit contains two self-contained wireless modems (HN-510s) built around the WIT2410M OEM module. In addition, two WIT2410M OEM modules are included in the kit. The self-contained units allow developers to get up and running quickly using standard RS-232 interfaces without having to build a CMOS level serial interface. In addition, the self-contained modems include status LEDs to provide modem status information visually. The built-in battery pack allows the developer to use the modems without being tethered to a power source. This provides a simple way to test the range of the radios. Other than the true RS-232 signals of the serial interface, the self-
contained modems operate exactly as the OEM modules. Connection is made to the HN-510s through a standard DB-9 connector. The HN-510s are set up as DCE devices requiring the use of a straight-through cable to connect to DTE devices. The pinout is provided in Section 7.3. The modems can be used with just a three wire connection. Transmit data, receive data and ground are the three required connections. Note that in this configuration, no flow control is available as the WIT2410 does not support software flow control. When the developers kit is shipped from the factory, one HN-510 is set up as a base station and the other is set up as a remote. The interface rate for both modems is set at 9600 bps. The default setting for the network key allows the modems to communicate without changing any settings. As a quick test, separate the two modems by about 5 feet, plug in the power and turn the modems on. Do not connect the modems to any device. The Carrier Detect (CD) LED on the base station will come on immediately. After a few seconds, the CD LED on the remote will come on. This indicates that the modems have synchronized and have established a communications link. An important point to remember is that if the base station is in Sleep mode, no communications can take place until (1) the base station is taken out of sleep mode and
(2) the remote has synchronized with the base station. As the Sleep signal is brought out on the pin usually occupied by DTR, connecting the base station to a PC serial port with DTR de-asserted will put the modem into sleep mode. Some communications programs will attempt to communicate immediately after asserting DTR. The base station will transmit this data, but the remote will not be synchronized with the base station and will not receive the transmission. In this instance, do not connect the Sleep signal to DTR of the serial port. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 32 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 7. WinCOM Provided with the developers kit is a configuration program designed especially for Cirronets wireless industrial transceivers or WIT radios. WinCOM is located on the Manuals and Software CD included in the developers kit. Install WinCOM by navigating to the Software Tools directory on the Manuals and Software CD and double-
click on wincom2.1.exe follow the installation wizard. Once it has installed, open WinCOM by double-clicking on the WinCOM icon on the desktop. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 33 M-2410-0000 Rev F WinComs menu structure is typical of Windows conventions with File, Edit, Options, Tools and Help selections. WIT2410 Under File, Save Settings (Ctrl S) saves the current WinCom settings to the hard drive, Print (Ctrl P) sends whatever text is in the display field to the printer and Exit terminates the program. Under Edit, Copy, Paste, Find (search) and Select All perform the familiar Windows functionality in typical fashion. The Options menu contains the selections, Show Comm Errors which lists any errors encountered in the PC UART. Check Comm Ports on Bootup tells WinCom to verify each available port and lists them as such in the Com Port drop down field. See the section entitled WinCom Tools for an explanation of this drop down. The Help menu displays the About screen which lists the version number, hardware and software information for the system being used. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 34 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 7.1. Starting the program When started, WinCOM de-asserts and re-asserts the DTR line to the radio which resets the radio causing the sign-on banner to be displayed. If the baud rate on the computer doesnt match the baud rate of the radio, illegible characters will be displayed. By hitting the PgUp or PgDn key to change the baud rate, then pressing F1 twice to toggle DTR
(resets the radio) and causes a new banner to be displayed. Continue changing baud rates in this fashion until a legible banner is displayed as shown below. The banner indicates the radio firmware version, whether the radio is operating as a base or a remote and the unique factory serial number of the radio module. If nothing is displayed in the communications window of WinCOM, verify the COM port and baud rate settings, then reset the radio (by hitting F1 twice). Cycling power to the radio also will cause the sign on banner to be displayed unless the banner is disabled via the Banner Display Disable command (zb0). The COM port and baud rate can be changed using the drop down menus on the bottom right. All the available COM ports will be listed in the menu but will have OK or N/A designated. If another program that uses a COM port is open, that COM port will not be available for use by WinCOM. The boxes on the lower right of the WinCOM window provide the status of the COM port flow control being used to communicate with the radio. Note that DCD is only asserted by radios configured as remotes when they are linked to a base radio. Radios configured as bases always assert DCD even if no remotes are linked. Clicking on the DTR or RTS buttons will change the state of the respective signal line in the COM port. The radio is normally in data mode data that is sent to it from the PC is transmitted over the wireless connection. When the WinCOM window is active, keys typed on the keyboard will be sent to the radio and will be transmitted. Unless the Echo box is checked the typed data will not be displayed in the WinCOM window of the sending radio. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 35 M-2410-0000 Rev F To change configuration parameters, the radio must be put into configuration mode by clicking on the Config Mode button on the WinCOM window immediately after opening WinCOM or after cycling power to the radio. Another method is to toggle the DTR by pressing the F1 key twice, which de-asserts then re-asserts DTR, then pressing the F3 key
(or Config Mode button). WIT2410 When the radio is in configuration mode, a > prompt character is displayed in the WinCom window as shown above. Configuration parameters are sent to the radio by entering them in the WinCom window after the > prompt and pressing the Enter key. If an invalid command or value is entered, the radio will respond with Error as shown above Until the command to save the parameters (m>) is issued, the new parameters will only be valid until power is cycled or DTR is toggled by pressing the F1 key twice. New parameter values that have been issued are saved to non-volatile memory using the m> command. Refer to the Memory Commands section for details on this and other helpful memory commands. To exit configuration mode from the WinCom screen, use the z> command and press Enter as shown below. The return to the data mode is indicated by an absence of the > prompt. Refer to the Configuration Commands section below for details on all the configurable parameters. When the radio is linked to another radio, a communications test can be run by clicking on the Transmit button or pressing the F6 key. Whatever ASCII string is in the Transmit String window will be transmitted as shown below. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 36 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 If the other radio is sending data, the received data will be displayed in the WinCOM window. If the Binary box is checked, all characters received will be displayed subject to the limitations of Windows. For example, a carriage return will not return the cursor to the left side of the window but the character corresponding to 0xd value of the carriage return will be displayed. Similarly, if the Hex Mode box is checked, all characters are displayed in hexadecimal format. The Clear Screen button deletes all the text in the display window. The Clear CTS and Clear DCD buttons reset the respective changes counters to zero. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 37 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 After naming the file and clicking on OK, the Capture Data window opens and shows the amount of data being received. Clicking on Done stops the loading of received data into the file. 7.2. Function Keys All of the function key shortcuts are described below:
Toggles state of DTR (Sleep). State is shown in status line. Toggles state of RTS. State is shown in status line. Transmits :wit2400. Used to enter control mode. Toggles local echo. If you are transmitting characters through one modem to another WIT2450, this allows you to see what you are typing. Toggles stream mode. Causes WinCOM to transmit a repeating pattern of characters. Useful for testing. Toggles binary mode. Displays extended ASCII and control characters. Useful for testing. F1 F2 F3 F5 F6 F8 PgUp Sets data rate of PC serial port to next higher value. Value is displayed in status line. Useful when WinCOM is used to change the WIT2450 interface data rate. WinCOM can communicate at new data rate without having to exit and re-enter WinCOM. PgDn Sets data rate of PC serial port to next lower value. Value is displayed in status line. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 38 M-2410-0000 Rev F 7.3. WinCom Tools WIT2410 There are seven selections under the Tools menu. The first, Obey CTS is useful when just a three wire connection is made between the radio and the computer. Some PCs let the CTS input line float. If CTS is not asserted, the PC COM port will not send data. Note: Unchecking this selection will have the PC COM port ignore the state of CTS and transmit data. When WinCOMs transmit mode is used, data is sent continuously until the user stops it by clicking on Stop or pressing F6. If the second tool, Single Transmit, is checked, clicking the Transmit button will send the Transmit String a single time. There is no need to click Stop. Clicking on the Transmit button a second time will have the string transmitted a second time. The third allows for checking of available Comm Ports and is useful for refreshing the list. The fourth, Transmit Tools allows for testing of the Transparent, WIT2410/WIT910 or WIT2411 settings. Parameters related to how the transmission will take place can be set including Handle, Transmit Period, whether or not a Sequence Number should be added, if the Transmission will be continuous or one time, if the data should be sent in Hex Format and whether or not data can be received. Data is entered into the Data field, then Data Size can be set and clicking Fill loads the data into the Transmit Field. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 39 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 The Packet Builder is an easy way to test the multipoint addressing mode of the WIT241x radio. Since the WIT241x operates in a star configuration in multipoint mode, only the base radio needs to address data to specific remotes. All remotes send data back to the base and do not need to address the data to the base. To send a packet of data to a specific remote in a multipoint network, enter the handle of the desired remote in the Handle window. Type whatever data to be transmitted in the Data to Transmit window. In the bottom window, you will see the entire packet being built as the data is entered in the windows. When all the data has been entered, click on the Transmit button to send the data. WinCOM has the ability to perform any function or sequence of functions WinCOM can perform through a script file. A script file is a text file that contains one or more commands and arguments save with a wcr filename extension. Each command is separated by a carriage return and linefeed. Configuration commands need to have wait periods between them. The list of commands and their definitions is below:
2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 40 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 7.4. Script Commands Selects the COM port to use Selects the baud rate to use Asserts DTR De-asserts DTR Asserts RTS De-asserts RTS Sends configuration escape sequence Obey CTS/RTS Do not obey CTS/RTS Send WIT910 format configuration command Pause for arg milliseconds cp <arg>
br <arg>
do df ro rf cm oo of sc <cmd(arg)>
wt <arg>
An example script file is shown below:
br 115200 df wt 200 do wt 200 cm wt 200 sc m!
This script file sets the baud rate of the PC COM that WinCOM is using to 115,200 kbps, de-asserts DTR, waits 200 milliseconds, asserts DTR, waits 200 milliseconds, sends the configuration mode escape sequence, waits 200 milliseconds and then sends the m!
command to the radio. What this script file does is set the PC COM port baud rate to 115.2 kbps, puts the radio in config mode and the issues the command to display all of the radio parameters that have been changed from factory default. Note that this script file leaves the radio in config mode. Cycling power or toggling DTR will return the radio to data mode. WinCOM prompts you to select the desired .wcr file. Opening the script file causes it to executed immediately. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 41 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 The seventh tool allows the loading of a data file for transmission. Navigate to a file then click Open and the file is transmitted immediately. The Capture File dialog displays with a bar showing loading progression. Once the file has finished transmitting, the Final Average Throughput and Bytes sent numbers will be displayed. Finally, the eighth tool is Save to File which launches a Save As dialog that allows any data received to be loaded into a file. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 42 M-2410-0000 Rev F 7.5. Demonstration Procedure The procedure below provides a quick demonstration of the WIT241x. WIT2410 1. Attach a transceiver to each computer, preferably between 5' and 30' apart for convenience. 2. Start WinCOM running on both computers If you prefer, almost any other serial communications program such as Procomm or QModem set for 9600 bps will also work. 3. Turn the radios on and use the function keys to set DTR and RTS to 1 (if you are using a terminal program other than COM24, these are typically set automatically). The radio should respond by setting both DSR and CTS to 1, and transmit a short sign-on message including the firmware version and whether the unit is configured as a base or remote. Watch the states of the hardware control lines on the status bar as you do this. The DCD indicator should be lit on the base station. After a few seconds, the remote unit will acquire the base station's signal and also assert its DCD signal. 4. Access modem control mode for each unit. To access modem control mode, use the F1 key to toggle DTR to 0 and back to 1 and then press the F3 key, which sends the ":wit2400" escape sequence. If you are not using COM24, simply turn the radio off and back on and then type ":wit2400" (must be lower case, no backspace characters). The transceiver should echo back > to indicate that you have entered modem control mode. Check the remote unit's hopping pattern by entering "wn?" at the prompt. The remote should respond with "0", the default setting. Check that the base station's hopping pattern matches this by entering
"wn?" at the base station. 5. Exit control mode by entering "z>". Do this for both radios. At this point, you should be able to type characters into either radio and see them appear at the other side. If you are using WinCOM, you can press the F6 key to transmit a repeating test pattern. 6. For a range test, disconnect the remote station from the computer and power supply. The DCD indicator should remain lit as long as the base station is in range.. 7. Exit COM24 by pressing the ESC key. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 43 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 8. Troubleshooting Radio is not responding. Make sure DTR is asserted to bring the radio out of sleep mode. DSR should be on to indicate the radio is ready. Cant enter modem control mode. Make sure the host data rate is correct. The WIT2410 defaults to 9600 bps asynchronous. Evaluation units do not have external access to the CFG_SEL signal; you must use the
:wit2410 power-on escape sequence to access modem control mode. The first characters typed after the radio wakes up should be the escape sequence. Make sure you type the colon (:) and enter the letters in lower case; the characters following the colon echo to show you have typed them correctly. If using the on-the-fly escape sequence command, make sure a pause of at least 20ms precedes the escape sequence. Remote never detects carrier. Check that the base station is running, and that the remote is programmed to the same hopping pattern. Also check that the hop duration for base and remote are the same, and that the remote has a non-zero link margin. Carrier is detected, but no data appears to be received. Make sure that RTS is asserted to enable receive character flow. In a point-to-point application, if a remote is not receiving data, check that the base's default handle is the same as the remote's. In a multipoint application, check that the remote is not configured for protocol mode and that the base is using the correct protocol format and destination handle. Radio is interfering with other nearby circuits. It is possible for the RF energy envelope to be rectified by nearby circuits that are not shielded for RFI, manifesting as a lower frequency noise signal. If possible, place the antenna at least 1 foot away from the transceiver module, and 3 feet from other circuit boards and obstructions. Place sensitive circuits in a grounded metal casing to keep out RFI. Sign-on banner or modem control mode prompt is unreadable. If the problem is repeatable, check whether the data rates between host and transceiver match. Range is extremely limited. This is usually a sign of poor antenna coupling. Check that the antenna is firmly connected. If possible, remove any obstructions in the near field of the antenna (~3'
radius). Transmitting terminal flashes CTS occasionally. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 44 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 This indicates that the transmitter is unable to reliably get its data across. This may be the result of an interfering signal, but most often is caused by overloading of the network. Adjusting the protocol parameters may increase the network efficiency. Receiving terminal drops characters periodically. Set the number of retries to a high number and send a few characters. Check that the transmitted data can get through under these conditions. Sometimes this symptom is caused by an application that is explicitly dependent on the timing of the received data stream. The nature of the packetized RF channel imposes a degree of unpredictability in the end-to-end transmission delay. Cannot communicate with the OEM module. Make sure DTR and RTS are asserted. DSR should be on to indicate the radio is ready. OEM Module is in an unknown state. Use the m0 command to restore the factory defaults. Note that the serial baud rate must be known for the module to receive this command. 2000- 2004 Cirronet Inc 45 M-2410-0000 Rev F WIT2410 9. APPENDICES 9.1.

WIT2410S4 has the serial connector pins pointing up. 9.3. Approved Antennas The HN-510 is wired as a DCE device and as such can be connected to DTE devices such as PCs with a straight-through cable. When connecting a HN-510 to a DTE device, a null modem cable is required. To effect a null modem cable, cross-wire TXD and RXD and connect ground. The HN-510 can operate with just these three wires connected. However, as the WIT2410 does not support software flow control, there will be no flow control in this mode. If the DTE device fails to respond, connect DCD from the HN-510 to the DTR and RTS inputs to activate the DCE device whenever the WIT2410 asserts carrier. When connecting to the WIT2410M/S4, make sure that all of the inputs (TXD, CFG, RTS and SLEEP) are terminated for proper operation. The WIT2410M/S4 is designed to ensure that no antenna other than the one fitted shall be used with the device. The end user must permanently affix the antenna by using an adhesive on the coupling such as Loctite, or ensure the antenna has a unique coupling.
