Introduction
This Quick Start Guide provides instructions to use Zilog’s Wireless Zdots® Single Board
Computer (SBC) with the Demo project
WLANDemo.zdsproj. WLANDemo.zdsproj is a
sample project in which the communication of a PC to a web page is wireless, it is run by
Zdots SBC. The
WLANDemo.zdsproj is used along with standard Zilog TCP/IP (ZTP)
software suite. This Demo project can only be used on Wireless Zdots SBC. Do not use
this Demo project on Zilog’s eZ80Acclaim!
®
development kit. This project can also be
used as the starting point for your application development.

Zdots
®
SBC behaves as a complete wireless station.

1. To support FLASH and COPY_TO_RAM configuration on Wireless
Zdots SBC (due to new external SPANSION Flash) ZDS II Flash driver
configuration file must be modified. Replace the
FlashDevice.xml
file in the
...\ZDSII_eZ80Acclaim!_4.x.x\config folder with
the file given in the WLANDemo folder. In the Project Settings
Debugger;
eZ80F91_WiFi_Flash must be selected for FLASH and
COPY_TO_RAM configurations. After replacing the
FlashDevice.xml file close all ZDS II instances and reopen again.
2. By default the
wlan_conf.c file contains WLAN parameters set to
zero. In this case, you can configure these parameters through shell
and connect to a BSS (AP).
3. If the WLAN parameters in
wlan_conf.c are valid (that is, not initial-
ized to NULL), the Demo connects to the specified BSS (AP) without
the user interaction.
4. In FLASH and COPY_TO_RAM configurations the SSID and WEP key
can be set through the
configwlan shell command. For more details,
refer to Zilog TCP/IP Software Suite Programmer’s Guide (RM0041).
5. The Zdots
®
WLAN solution cannot be configured to work as an Access
Point.
Web Server Demonstration
Follow the steps below to use the features of WLAN Demo:
1. When you run the WLAN Demo application Zdots SBC accesses the BSS with the
specified SSID and displays the network parameters such as IP address and a login
prompt on the HyperTerminal. You can type
help on the prompt to know other
command line applications.
2. Use
ping command from any PC in the same BSS/ESS as Zdots SBC running ZTP.
Ping command can be used from Zdots SBC shell to other PC also.
3. Open an Internet Explorer from a PC/laptop where the router is connected and browse
the eZ80
®
WLAN Zdots SBC with the IP specified on the Hyper Terminal. In this
demo the given IP address is 192.168.1.102. See Figure 8.
IP Address may vary. Please verify this value on IP addr on the
hyperterminal.
