5.2.1 Test Procedure

This section covers the step-by-step procedure to run the Hybrid RF/PLC test.

1. Start the PLC only node as mini-DC (Steps 1 to 5 in Section 5.2.2).
2. Start the RF only node in a standalone mode. (or use SmartRF studio to capture the RF packet RX.)
3. Once the Hybrid RF/PLC node is joined to the PLC network, an indication will show up in the mini-DC pop-up window (Step 6 in Section 5.2.2).
4. Check the simultaneous transmissions from Hybrid RF/PLC node on the GUI for the PLC(Step 7 in Section 5.2.2 for PLC). The RF only node can monitor the packet reception via the CCS debug window or SmartRF studio.
