The E10 contains a full-blown, internal Synapse RF100 SNAP Engine.
Figure 4-4: E10 Internal View
This SNAP Engine can be accessed over the air (for instance, via Portal) just like any other
node in your SNAP network.
This SNAP engine runs standard SNAP firmware and can therefore be uploaded with a
SNAPpy script.
The SNAP Connect software running on the E10's Linux processor uses this internal SNAP
Engine as a bridge to reach the rest of your network (similar to how Portal uses its own
bridge node).
You are not required to put a SNAPpy script into this SNAP Engine, but be aware that you
can.
Note:
If you do put a script into the SNAP Engine, be sure to maintain the Packet Serial
connection on the second UART (UART1 AKA DS_UART1) so that the Linux processor
continues to have access to the SNAP Network.
