Warning:
Some customers may want Linx radio frequency (“RF”)
products to control machinery or devices remotely, including machinery
or devices that can cause death, bodily injuries, and/or property
damage if improperly or inadvertently triggered, particularly in industrial
settings or other applications implicating life-safety concerns (“Life and
Property Safety Situations”).
NO OEM LINX REMOTE CONTROL OR FUNCTION MODULE
SHOULD EVER BE USED IN LIFE AND PROPERTY SAFETY
SITUATIONS.
No OEM Linx Remote Control or Function Module
should be modified for Life and Property Safety Situations. Such
modification cannot provide sufficient safety and will void the product’s
regulatory certification and warranty.
Customers may use our (non-Function) Modules, Antenna and
Connectors as part of other systems in Life Safety Situations, but
only with necessary and industry appropriate redundancies and
in compliance with applicable safety standards, including without
limitation, ANSI and NFPA standards. It is solely the responsibility
of any Linx customer who uses one or more of these products to
incorporate appropriate redundancies and safety standards for the Life
and Property Safety Situation application.
Do not use this or any Linx product to trigger an action directly
from the data line or RSSI lines without a protocol or encoder/
decoder to validate the data.
Without validation, any signal from
another unrelated transmitter in the environment received by the module
could inadvertently trigger the action.
All RF products are susceptible to RF interference that can prevent
communication.
RF products without frequency agility or hopping
implemented are more subject to interference. This module does not
have a frequency hopping protocol built in.
Do not use any Linx product over the limits in this data guide.
Excessive voltage or extended operation at the maximum voltage could
cause product failure. Exceeding the reflow temperature profile could
cause product failure which is not immediately evident.
Do not make any physical or electrical modifications to any Linx
product.
This will void the warranty and regulatory and UL certifications
and may cause product failure which is not immediately evident.

Introduction
The Linx HumDT
TM
Series Remote Control Transceiver modules offer
a simple, efficient and cost-effective method of adding remote control
capabilities to any product. The Master Development System provides a
designer with all the tools necessary to correctly and legally incorporate the
module into an end product. The boards serve several important functions:
•
Rapid Module Evaluation: The boards allow the performance of the
Linx HumDT™ Series modules to be evaluated quickly in a user’s
environment. The development boards can be used to evaluate the
range performance of the modules.
•
Application Development: A prototyping board allows the development
of custom circuits directly on the board. All signal lines are available on
headers for easy access.
•
Software Development: A programming dock with a PC interface allows
development and testing of custom software applications for control of
the module.
•
Design Benchmark: The boards provide a known benchmark against
which the performance of a custom design may be judged.
The Master Development System includes 2 Carrier Boards, 2
Programming Dock Boards, 2 Prototype Boards 4 HumDT™ Series
transceivers*, antennas, batteries and full documentation.
* One part is soldered to each Carrier Board

Initial Setup
There are several boards that are included with the Development System.
The Carrier Boards have a HumDT
TM
Series transceiver on a daughter
board with headers. These boards snap into sockets on the other boards,
enabling the modules to be easily moved among the test boards.
There are two Programming Docks that have a socket for a Carrier
Board and a USB interface for connection to a PC. This is used with the
demonstration software included with the kit to configure the module
through its Command Data Interface.
There are two Prototype Boards that have a socket for a Carrier Board, a
USB interface and a large area of plated through holes that can be used to
develop custom circuitry. The board can be powered either from the USB
connection or an external battery.

Warning:
Installing or removing a Carrier Board while power is
applied could cause permanent damage to the module. Either turn
off power to the board or unplug the USB cable before installing or
removing a Carrier Board
The development software supports Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 8.1;
OS X 10.6 ‘Snow Leopard’ or later (including Lion, Mountain Lion, and
Mavericks); any version of Linux with Java 1.6 or later.

Note:
The Prototype board uses a USB to UART chip to connect the
module to the PC. This chip is powered from the 5V on the USB cable.
It has an input line that detects the voltage on Vcc and sets the UART
voltage levels to match as soon as power is applied to the chip.
It is important that the power switch (SW3) be set appropriately before
the USB cable is plugged in. If an external power supply is used and the
switch is off when the cable is plugged in, then the UART output voltage
may not be set correctly and could result in communication failures.
Set the switch to BAT when using an external supply or to USB to use
the USB bus to power the module. Then plug in the USB cable.
