8. Select Burst Size 

 

 

 
Select burst size by navigating the 
joystick, either 1000, 10K, 100K or 1M 
packets. Confirm the selection with 
Button 1.  
 
 
 

9. PER test transmitter 

 

 

 
The transmitter is now configured for the 
PER test. The PER test is started by 
moving the joystick UP. The transmitter 
will display the number of packets sent 
during the PER test. The PER test is 
stopped by moving the joystick UP again.  

10. PER test receiver 

 

 

 
The PER test receiver will display the 
total PER (calculated based on the 
received sequence numbers), and 
moving average RSSI value on the 
display. It will also display the number of 
packets received during the PER test.

In order to program the MSP430 MCU on 
the CCMSP-EM430F2618 board the 
MSP430 Debug Interface is needed. 
Connect the MSP430 debug interface to 
JTAG connector P12 on the CCMSP-
EM430F2618. Connect the debug 
interface to the PC with a USB cable. 
 

12. SmartRF Studio 

 

 

 
In order to use the SmartRF Studio the 
CC2520EM is connected directly to the 
SmartRf05EB.  
 
SmartRF Studio can be downloaded from 
the kit’s website (See the next section). 
After downloading install the program. 
Connect the EB to the PC with a USB 
cable.
