DHX91 EVB (= ULE Node) 

The  DHX91  EVB  includes  a  DHAN  Module  (a custom  version  with  printed  antenna),  several  push 
buttons, LEDs and access to vital IO pins that facilitate simple application emulation. The EVB can 
be  powered  using  the  AC  transformer  outputting  5V  (supplied  with  the  Kit)  or  using  a  CR123A 
battery. The EVB is delivered configured for this latter case. See the jumper configuration below for 
both  cases.  It  is  suggested  to  initially  power  up  the  EVB  with  a  3V  power  supply  clipped  to  the 
battery holder to get feedback regarding the current drain. 

The  EVB  can  function  as  a  standalone  demo  device  (Step  1  below)  or  as  a  development  tool  to  be 
interfaced via RS232 to a PC (Step 2 below) or via UART to an external controller (Step 3 below).
