5 Wi-Fi Mode Setup
This section describes how to set up the Station and Soft-AP modes that are supported by DA16200.
●Station: a mode that runs the 802.11 STA interface
●Soft-AP: a mode that runs the Software Access Point. The Soft-AP mode does not support full-
fledged commercial level Access Point features. This mode is normally used for Provisioning
NOTE
If the customer/developer starts with a new SFLASH or a full initialized SFLASH, then the "factory" command
should be run on the console after the first boot to initialize the NVRAM drive.
5.1 DA16200 Connecting the Board
This section describes the driver installation procedure, serial port configuration, and all necessary
steps to verify the connection with the PC as well as solutions to any problems that may occur.
On first connection to a host PC with Microsoft Windows as an operating system, the system detects
several devices and automatically installs all necessary drivers. If it is not installed automatically, get
the driver from the following URL: http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/CDM/CDM21224_Setup.zip.
There are two virtual COM ports created by the Windows driver. The first COM port (lower number,
COM35 in this example) provides a UART interface for debugging or Downloading firmware between
the PC and the DA161200. The second (higher number, COM36 in this example) is used for
ATCOMMAND. See Figure 4.
Figure 4: Check COM Ports on Device Manager
5.2 Configure the Serial Port for UART
On a Windows Host, the utility Tera Term is used to fully validate the connection to the DA16200
EVK. Tera Term is a free software terminal emulator (communication program) that supports multiple
communication including serial port connections. Download Tera Term from https://ttssh2.osdn.jp.
Run the teraterm-x.yy.exe executable and follow the installation wizard.

To make sure that the communication between the DA16200 EVK and the host PC is properly
established, the UART connection between the two nodes needs to be verified. For that purpose, do
the following steps:
16. Connect the DA16200 EVK to the PC via USB cable to USB Port.
17. Check if the host discovered two serial ports as shown in Figure 4. The second is connected to
UART (see Section 5.1).
18. Open Tera Term from the Windows Start menu.
19. In the Tera Term: New connection dialog box:
a. Select Serial.
b. Select the COM Port to use.
c. Click OK.

6 DPM Setup
6.1 What is DPM
DPM (Dynamic Power Management) is a synthesis of breakthrough ultra-low-power technologies
that enable extremely low power operation in the DA16200. DPM shuts down every microelement of
the chip that is not in use, which allows a near-zero level of power consumption when not actively
transmitting or receiving data. Such low-power consumption can provide a battery life of one year or
more, depending on the application. DPM also enables ultra-low-power transmission and receive
modes when the SoC needs to be awake to exchange information with other devices. Advanced
algorithms enable to stay asleep until the exact required moment to wake up to transmit or receive.
6.2 Enable DPM Mode
To enable the DPM mode:
1. Do the steps in section 5.1 until step 12: Dynamic Power Management? [Yes/No/Quit].
2. At prompt Dynamic Power Management? [Yes/No/Quit]: type Y.See Figure 16.
a. To use the default DPM factor, DPM factors: Defaults? [Yes/No/Quit], type Y
b. DPM CONFIGURATION CONFIRM [Yes/No/Quit]: type Y
NOTE
TIM wakeup count in 10 dtim is the default value. This means: 10dtim*102.4 = 1,024 ms = 1sec @ DTIM = 1
(in case that AP DTIM = 3, 10dtim is 921.6 ms)
Wake-up from sleep state takes place every second to check for a receive packet.
Figure 16: Setting DPM Factor with Default
c. To use the user-defined DPM factor, DPM factors: Defaults? [Yes/No/Quit], type N. See
Figure 17.
i. DPM Keep Alive Time (0~600000 ms)? [Quit] (Default 30000 ms): press [ENTER]
or type value within the range
ii. DPM User Wakeup Time (0~86400 Sec.)? [Quit] (Default 0 Sec.): press [ENTER]
or type value within the range
iii. DPM TIM Wakeup Count (1~65535 dtim)? [Quit] (Default 10): press [ENTER] or
type value within the range
iv. DPM CONFIGURATION CONFIRM [Yes/No/Quit]: type Y

3. After reboot, DA16200 will enter DPM sleep. The print message >>> Start DPM Power-
Down!!! means that DA16200 has entered DPM Sleep. See Figure 18.
Figure 18: DPM Mode Running after Reboot
NOTE
As soon as the system has entered DPM Sleep (After “>>> Start DPM Power-Down !!!” is printed on
Console), any user input via UART console will not work, because UART interface gets down when DPM
Sleep is entered.
6.3 Hold DPM Mode
As described in the Note above, after entering DPM Sleep, user input is not possible, and this is a
normal phenomenon. To exit this state and start over with setup, do the following:
1. Copy the string dpm hold to the clipboard.
a. For example: open Notepad, type dpm hold, and then copy (Ctrl + C) the command string.
2. Use RTC_PWR_KEY to power off (move to OFF position).
3. Use RTC_PWR_KEY to power on (move to ON position).
4. Before the message >>> Start DPM Power-Down !!! is printed on the console, do the following:
a. With the dpm hold string copied, right-click in the terminal window to paste the string.
b. Immediately press the ENTER key.
c. Once this procedure is done quickly and successfully, the message DPM Sleep Manager
HOLD… is printed. See Figure 19.
d. If the DPM mode does not stop successfully, you may need to retry several times.
5. Run setup again to configure DA16200 in a different mode.

Figure 21 shows a typical test setup environment.
Figure 21: Current Test Environment
7.2 Sleep 1
To measure the Sleep 1 current, use RTC_PWR_KEY to power off (move to OFF position). See
Section 3, number 9. See Figure 22.
7.3 Sleep 2
To measure the Sleep 2 current, the following command is required:
1. Use RTC_PWR_KEY to power on (move to on position). See section 3, number 9.
2. Type command factory to make DA16200 use the default setting.
3. The board will reboot.
4. At prompt, run command sleep 2 time(sec) [/DA16200/SYS.HAL] # sleep 2 time(sec)
○For instance, [/DA16200/SYS.HAL] # sleep 2 10
○It will sleep for a set amount of time (10 seconds), and then reboot and wake
up.
7.4 Sleep 3
1. Do the steps in Section 6.2 until step 3.
○When you run the DA16200 with DPM settings, DA16200 will run DPM Sleep, wake up for
Beacon check and Keep Alive according to the configured DTIM
For example: the current waveform in Figure 22 shows settings DTIM 10 (about 1sec @ AP DTIM=1)
and Keep Alive 30s.
Sleep 3 current means current between RX or between RX and TX.

8 Ping Test
DA16200 has command ping to verify communication test (Ping Test) during DPM mode.
8.1 Test Setup
For a communication test (Ping Test) there are two stations–DA16200 and Laptop–and an Access
Point (AP) required. Both must be connected to the same subnetwork AP. See Figure 23.
DA16200 must be connected to the AP via WI-FI, and the laptop must be connected to the AP with
an Ethernet cable. After configuration, DA16200 will be in DPM Sleep mode (Sleep 3). Then
DA16200 can wake up from sleep mode when unicast packets are sent while remaining in sleep
mode most of the time.
In this test, a Ping application that runs on the laptop acts as a network peer that sends a unicast
packet to DA16200. This is to check if DA16200 in DPM Sleep mode can successfully wake up and
receive the unicast packets in real-time.
Figure 23: Ping Test Environment
1. Run the command window (CMD) as administrator.
2. Type command ipconfig to see what the IP address is of the laptop. See Figure 24.
For example: the laptop's IP is 192.168.0.65, and the Default Gateway IP is 192.168.0.1
Figure 24: Ethernet IP Address Assign
3. Run the DA16200 terminal window and set DA16200 in Station mode (see Section 5.3).
○For example: the assigned IP of DA16200 is 192.168.0.66. See Figure 25
