6. The dropdown list labeled "Boot Config Serial Port" will offer a choice of all
active USB Serial COM ports on your system. the one you should select is the
higher numbered of the two ports associated with the Evaluation Board.
7. Next, you have the choice of loading the boot configuration from a file or re-
trieving it from the AW900mSPI. A sample file is provided for your convenience
as EVK.conf. The configuration file is a readable and editable text file, but the
easiest way to modify it is to load it with the utility, change what you wish in
the set of boot configuration parameters and then save it back to your PC.
8. The Boot Config parameters are as follows:
• Access Point (AP) or Subscriber Unit (SU) radio buttons. Set one Evaluation
Board to be an AP and the other to be a SU.
• Number of Subscriber Units if AP or Subscriber ID if SU. (An AP will support up
to 16 SUs at one time and their assigned IDs should be assigned consecutively
from 1 to n.) For the pair of Evaluation Boards, set both to "01".
• Channel: a two-digit number from 00 to 12, specifying the RF channel to
use or allowing automatic selection with the code 00. The AP and associated
SUs must use the same channel, either automatically negotiated or set in
common.
