Demo setup

To set up the demo, one STM3210C-EVAL board (modified as described in Section 2.1) with

a ZigBee adapter is necessary, a set of STEVAL-IHP001V3s, a PC with Ethernet

connectivity, and an Ethernet switch (or hub) with standard Ethernet cable; if an Ethernet

switch (or hub) is not available it is possible to use a crossed Ethernet cable. The adapter is

not provided in the package but the Gerber files are available for downloading together with

the firmware package. By using the browser of the PC it is possible to monitor and control

each smartplug of the HAN simply writing the IP address of the board (shown in the board

display) in the address bar. It is possible to do the same from any computer connected to the

Internet configuring the PC as the Internet gateway, providing it has an Internet connection,

of course, with a public IP address; unfortunately, not all Internet providers assign public IP

by default.

Go step-by-step:

1.

Turn on the STM3210C-EVAL board with daughterboard

2.

Set the PC network with static IP address
