製品概要
概要
The package includes the documentation and firmware framework for ST G3-PLC technology evaluation, based on the EVALKITST8500-1 kit that embeds all the functions required for plug-and-play G3-PLC power line communication networking.
An intuitive user-friendly graphical user interface (GUI) for the Windows® environment allows the user to upgrade the firmware release, configure and control the evaluation kit and run application commands.
The STM32 application firmware example implements a UDP/IPv6 protocol on top of the 6LowPAN adaptation layer of the G3-PLC communication layers running on ST8500 device
The G3-PLC stack is configured to work in FCC band-plan by default and can be easily configured to work in CEN-A and CEN-B as well.
The application example includes remote LEDs control and RTC configuration, nodes ping and string data transfer.
At least two EVALKITST8500-1 kits must be separately ordered in order to run the firmware and application example.
