The E520.30 PC driven demonstrator kit is for demonstration purpose of the smoke-detector device functionality. It supports
communication between PC and smoke detector based on E520.30 using the E520.30 Interface (3 level interface). The E520.30
device inside the smoke detector has a special firmware to communicate with the PC using the same protocol.
The PC demo software provide smoke detector device control and parameter modification with graphical output.
For demonstration purpose it is necessary to establish a communication between smoke detector and PC using physical se-
quential interface on two wire bus (LN24 and GND).
