Features/Benefits
• Easily configure a low-power
mesh or multipoint sensor/
device network
• Conduct a basic wireless
range test
• Provide IP connectivity to the
network using the ConnectPort X2
gateway
• Monitor light and temperature
readings from the XBee wall
router (mesh kit version)
• Laptop or PC access to the
WPAN via the XBee USB adapter
(multipoint kit version)
Overview
The Drop-in Networking Professional Development Kit provides the hardware and software
tools to rapidly deploy a real-world wireless sensor/device network and proof-of-concept
system. All hardware components are pre-configured to run either mesh or multipoint
networking software, which is optimized for low-power, battery-fueled operation.
The kit includes:
• 3 XBee modules (1 XBee and 2 XBee-PRO
®
) and 3 interface boards (1 USB and
2 RS-232) to simulate endpoints in the Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN).
• 1 ConnectPort™ X2 gateway which concentrates data from the XBee modules
for connectivity to a PC or the IP network. The gateway provides a Python-based
programming engine for custom application development.
• 1 XBee wall router (mesh kit versions) OR 1 XBee USB adapter (multipoint kit
versions)
- The wall router provides network extension and plugs into a standard power
outlet. It also includes integrated light and temperature sensors that can be
monitored via the gateway.
- The XBee USB adapter provides easy local connectivity to the WPAN via a
laptop or PC.
• Power supplies, user documentation and configuration CD. The CD also provides a
set of Python
®
programming tools to assist with custom application development.
