RemoTITM CC2530 Development Kit - Quick Start Guide
STEP 1 – Download and Install the RemoTI Software
This Quick Start Guide provides instructions for software installation,
configuration and the procedure to run the out-of-the-box
ZigBee RF4CE remote control demo
The RemoTITM development kit components are pre-programmed
with the appropriate sample applications
The demo requires a PC tool and driver that are included in
The RemoTITM software installer. To register and download, go
to http://focus.ti.com/docs/toolsw/folders/print/remoti.html and
download RemoTI-CC2530DK-<version>.exe (SWRC131)
Install the software by following the install instructions. The default
Installation directory is C:\Texas Instruments\RemoTI-CC2530DK-<version>\...
STEP 2 – Connect the Target Board to the PC
Plug the CC2530EM into the target board EM connector and connect the
antenna
Connect the mini-USB cable to the target board and to an USB port on the PC
Note. The CC2531 USB dongle in this kit can be used instead of the target
board. See Section 4.2 in the Target Emulator User’s Guide (SWRU202) for
instructions. The remainder of this Quick Start Guide provides the instructions
for the target board
STEP 3 – Associate the Target Board with an USB Driver
The first time the target board is connected to a PC the new
USB device will be detected
Windows will start the “New Hardware Found Wizard” and try
to associate the device with an USB driver
When prompted, select “Install from a list or specific
location”
On the next screen select the driver located at:
C:\Texas Instruments\RemoTI-CC2530DK<version>\Tools\Driver
The RemoTI Hardware User’s Guide (SWRU211) contains
more information about the driver installation process
After the driver is installed the target module will be
assigned a COM port. To see the COM port number,
open the Windows Control panel – System – Hardware
– Device Manager and check the COM port number
under Ports (COM and LPT). The target board will be
listed as a TUSB3410 Device, (COM69 in this example)

STEP 4 – Start the Target Emulator
Start the TargetEmulator.exe located at: C:\Texas Instruments\RemoTI-CC2530DK-<version>\bin
To connect to the target board go to the Target
menu and select “Start Target Emulator”
and select “Serial Port” as the communication
method selection
Select the COM port for the target board. If you
do not find the COM port, please check the
RemoTI Hardware User’s Guide (SWRU211)
The remote control is pre-programmed to
control Television, Video player/recorder,
Set top box and Media center PC device
types. The target emulator must be instantiated
with a matching device type to enable pairing
between the remote control and the target
emulator
The RemoTI Controller Simulation Window will
now be displayed
STEP 5 – Pairing the Remote Control and the Target Board
Insert batteries into the remote control
The final step is to pair the remote control and the target board. To pair the devices,
press in any order the Pair button on the PC emulator and the Pair (Zoom) button on
the remote control within 30 seconds
After successful pairing the target emulator will display the number of Paired
controllers and the pairing message is displayed in the message window
STEP 6 – Using the Remote Control and Next Steps
A key press on the remote control will flash the corresponding key in the RemoTI Controller Simulation window. The
message will also be displayed in the log window of the target emulator.
Note that in normal operation, the TV/DVD/STB/AUX buttons will not send data over-the-air, The “Frz” button is use to
start the advanced test mode and should not be used in normal operation. See section 4.1.1 and 4.5 of the RemoTI
Sample Application User’s Guide (SWRU201) for more information about these functions
Further information and next steps:
1. Install the IAR Embedded Workbench at www.iar.com/ew8051
2. Follow the RemoTI Sample Application User’s Guide to get started with the development environment
3. Install the CC debugger, please follow the quick start guide included with the CCdebugger
4. The RemoTI Resource Guide (available on the start menu of the RemoTI installation) is a consolidated starting
point for documentation, reference designs, support information etc.
5. Check frequently for updates and new application notes at
