Once the program has started, the device selection panel of the RFPDK appears as shown in Figure 30. The user can use the
two tabs at the top of the panel to choose the product family: either devices operating in the 2.4 GHz frequency band or the
sub-1 GHz frequency band. Under each tab, all the products belong to the family are listed in the middle of the panel. The
products can be filtered by the buttons of All, Transmitters, Receivers and Transceivers. The main features of the products,
including Device, Function, Band, Package, Modem and Symbol Rate, are shown to assist the device selection.
If an evaluation module is connected to the PC through the USB Programmer, the device part number, USB Programmer
hardware version and firmware revision will appear in the “List of connected device”.
The rest part of this chapter takes configuring the CMT2150-EM with the RFPDK as an example unless otherwise noted.
