IFSYS-5651 MSP430 Bluetooth Evaluation Kit User Guide
Prior to connecting anything up or powering on the IFSYS-5651 board, ensure the
following procedures have been carried out:
• Configure jumpers as follows:
•
5043CONN jumper is set to EXT (installed on pins 2-3) – this connects the
IFSYS-5043 to the RS232 at P3 instead of MSP430 microcontroller
•
LEDSEL jumper is set to 5043 position (installed on pins 2-3)
•
MODE jumper is set to NORM position (installed on pins 1-2)
• Ensure that you have HCI firmware loaded into the IFSYS-5043 module. For the
firmware download procedure, refer to Section 9.4 - Restoring HCI UART firmware
to IFSYS-5043.
7.2 Serial cable configuration
The RS232 connector at P3 of the IFSYS-5651 board is used by the IFSYS-5043
Bluetooth module to connect to the host. P3 connector is a DB9(Male) connector with the
same pinout as the COM port connector on a PC. When connecting to a PC COM port,
use a null modem (crossed) DB9(Female)-to-DB9(Female) cable.
