4 Building the Setup
The following components are required.
- CC3220 LaunchPad flashed with the OOB package, and correctly set jumpers. See Figure 9 when powering from the USB.
- Mobile or tablet device with the SimpleLink Wi-Fi Starter Pro application installed. Alternatively, any mobile, tablet, or PC running a web browser can be used.
- Internet connection is required for the OTA procedure, because the software package is retrieved from the cloud.
- PC connected to the CC3220 LaunchPad if a terminal emulator is desired (it enables better visibility of the device state and debugging capabilities). In this setup, the PC powers the LaunchPad
- Local AP
To power up the CC3220 LaunchPad, connect it to the PC or any USB power supply. Out of the box, the CC3220 LaunchPad already contains the application, so there is no need to flash it, therefore the instructions in Section 5 are not required.
