Wireless Technology to Control and Monitor Anything from Anywhere™ SYNAPSE Network Evaluation Kit EK2500 Synapse proudly offers the EK2500 – the easiest way to experience the full power of our RF Engine™ hardware, SNAP® network firmware, and Portal® desktop software. Just power up the evaluation hardware and immediately you’ll get a sense of the speed and simplicity of SNAP networking. Right out of the box, the devices are communicating in a full mesh network. Install the included Synapse Portal software on your Windows PC (2K, XP, Vista), MAC or Linux and you’ll begin to experience the true power of an end-to-end integrated system. More than just a diagnostic or commissioning tool, Portal is a complete wireless application development environment. You have everything you need to create and wirelessly deploy your embedded application. Hardware SNAP Nodes: 2 Demo Boards 1 SN171-ProtoBoard 1 SN132-Demo Node EK2500 SNAP Nodes come pre-loaded with SNAP, including a sample application ready-to-run out of the box, in a full mesh network. Software The evaluation kit includes Portal, Synapse’s revolutionary wireless application development environment. This easy-to-use graphical interface provides everything you need for end-to-end control of your SNAP network. • SNAP - Instant-ON mesh network stack. • Complete end-to-end solution, hardware and software – device to desktop. • Everything you need to interactively prototype your application. • Portal Software – wireless application development environment. • Instructive example scripts demonstrate the power of SNAP. • Interactively control and monitor all nodes on the network. • Step-by-step User’s Guide. • Modify device behavior (embedded scripts) wirelessly. • Includes all required cables, power supplies and connectors. • Design, test, verify and deploy your application in record time. Portal includes a variety of sample applications demonstrating the power of Synapse’s embedded Python engine, SNAPpy™. Available with AES-128 encryption for secure applications. 430-0113.01C Wireless Technology to Control and Monitor Anything from Anywhere™ SYNAPSE Network Evaluation Kit EK2500 Portal This easy-to-use graphical user interface gives you access to control and monitoring functions that deliver complete network visibility and management. With Portal®, you will see wireless devices graphically and control them individually or collectively, monitor activities, keep event logs, run scripts, and much more. SNAP SNAP® is Synapse’s revolutionary wireless mesh networking firmware. Representing a leap-forward in embedded intelligence, SNAP is built on a foundation of peer-to-peer networking and free-form RPC calls. The result is the first system in its class supporting the capability to interactively develop custom applications using a modern, dynamic programming language. Develop your application wirelessly, in minutes, right before your eyes. SNAP Nodes The EK2500 kit includes 2 SNAP Demo Nodes and an SN171 - ProtoBoard that will provide a complete network and evaluation platform right out-of-the-box. Electrical specifications can be verified and examined under application specific conditions. And your own sensors or actuators can be connected to the SN171 ProtoBoard to evaluate realtime application performance. SNAP Demonstration Boards Want to see a SNAP network in action right away? These boards have the onboard peripherals to demonstrate powerful monitoring and control capabilities right out of the box. You can control external electrical devices with the powerrelay, display link-quality or other parameters on the 7-segment LEDs, wake up with a button-press…. Several of Portal’s sample scripts make specific use of these boards. Modify one of the sample scripts to make your own application and demonstrate for yourself the power of SNAP! SN171 SNAP Node ProtoBoard With terminal blocks exposing all RF Engine pins, a jumper-selectable RS232 port, LEDs, and pushbutton, the ProtoBoard is a playground for your wireless imagination. A low-power device with so much digital and analog capability that’s programmable in a modern high-level scripting language makes the ProtoBoard pretty unique. Doing all this with full-mesh wireless networking is truly amazing! RF Engines So that you can fully evaluate the performance of Synapse RF Engines, we include three configurations: • Internal “F” antenna • Internal “F” antenna with transmit power amplifier • External (SMA) antenna with transmit power amplifier Our primary objective at Synapse is to move our customers from concept to wireless network deployment as quickly as possible. With the Synapse Network Evaluation Kit, you can experience it for yourself!
