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 have
a frequency hopping protocol built in, but the developer should still be
aware of the risk of interference.
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 HumRCTM Series Remote Control Transceiver modules offer
a simple, efficient and cost-effective method of adding remote control
capabilities to any product. The Basic Evaluation Kit 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 HumRC™ 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.
• Prototype Development: The demo boards serve as a reference design
for the development of prototypes. Spare modules are also included for
use on the first prototype boards.
• Design Benchmark: The boards provide a known benchmark against
which the performance of a custom design may be judged.
The Basic Evaluation Kit includes 2 Carrier Boards, 2 RC Demo Boards, 4
HumRC™ Series transceivers*, antennas, batteries and full documentation.
* One part is soldered to each Carrier Board

Initial Setup
There are two Carrier Boards that are included with the Evaluation Kit. The
Carrier Boards have a HumRCTM Series transceiver on a daughter board
with headers. These boards snap into sockets on the Remote Control
Demo Boards.
There are two Remote Control Demo Boards that are populated differently.
Board A has the buttons on the right column and board B has them on the
left column. These accept the Carrier Boards and are used to demonstrate
the remote control functionality of the HumRCTM Series. They can also be
used for range testing. These boards use hardware configuration, so if any
changes have been made to the modules using software then they may not
operate correctly. A restore to default configuration can be used to reset
the modules.
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

Range Testing
Several complex mathematical models exist for determining path loss in
many environments. These models vary as the transmitter and receiver are
moved from indoor operation to outdoor operation. Although these models
can provide an estimation of range performance in the field, the most
reliable method is to simply perform range tests using the modules in the
intended operational environment.
Range testing can be performed with the Remote Control Demo Boards.
To prepare the board for range testing, simply turn it on by switching the
power switch to the ON position. Pressing a status line button on one
board (the IU) activates an LED on the other board (the RU). The RU then
sends an acknowledgement back to the IU, which turns on the CONFIRM
LED. This indicates good bi-directional RF communications and lets the
user set one board down and walk with the other board.
As the maximum range of the link in the test area is approached, it is not
uncommon for the signal to cut in and out as the radio moves. This is
normal and can result from other interfering sources or fluctuating signal
levels due to multipath effects. This results in cancellation of the transmitted
signal as direct and reflected signals arrive at the receiver at differing times
and phases. The areas in which this occurs are commonly called “nulls”
and simply walking a little farther usually restores the signal. If the signal is
not restored, then the maximum range of the link has been reached.
To achieve maximum range, keep objects such as your hand away from
the antenna and ensure that the antenna on the transmitter has a clear and
unobstructed line-of-sight path to the receiver board. Range performance
is determined by many interdependent factors. If the range you are able to
achieve is significantly less than specified by Linx for the products you are
testing, then there is likely a problem with either the board or the ambient
RF environment in which the board is operating. First, check the battery,
switch positions, and antenna connection. Next, measure the receiver’s
RSSI voltage with the transmitter turned off to determine if ambient
interference is present. High RSSI readings while the transmitter off indicate
there is interference. If this fails to resolve the issue, please contact Linx
technical support.
Using the Remote Control Demo Board
Snap a Carrier Board onto the socket on each Remote Control Demo
Board as shown in Figure 6.
Insert 4 AAA batteries into the holders on the back of each board, connect
antennas and turn on power.
The modules come paired out of the box, but to Pair additional modules,
press the PAIR button on both boards. The MODE_IND LEDs flash to
indicate that the modules are searching for each other and exchanging
addresses. The MODE_IND has a quick flash while searching (100ms on,
900ms off) and a longer flash once Pairing is complete (400ms on, 100ms
off). This process only takes a few seconds. The pairing process takes the
status line input / output directions into account. If these are changed then
the modules should be paired again.
Once complete, pressing a button on one board (the Initiating Unit or IU)
causes an LED to light up on the other board (the Responding Unit or RU).
The RU sends an acknowledgement message to the IU. If the message is
valid, the IU turns on the CONFIRM LED.
Figure 6: Remote Control Demo Board with a Carrier Board
Note: The Remote Control Demo boards are designed for hardware
configuration. If the modules are changed through software configuration
then the boards may not operate as expected. A restore to default
configuration can be used to reset the modules.
Note: To restore the default configuration, push the PAIR button four
times and hold it down on the fifth press. The MODE_IND LED flashes
when it has reset.
