MDEK1001 Kit User Manual Module Development & Evaluation Kit for the DWM1001
The MDEK1001 is a development and evaluation kit that allows the user to evaluate the Decawave’sDWM1001 module.
MDEK1001 stands for Module Development& Evaluation Kit for the Decawave DWM1001.
■The DWM1000 module and RTLS:
The DWM1001 is a module product natively supporting the Positioning and Networking Stack (PANS) firmware.
The DWM1001 used with PANS allows system developers to quickly implement an RTLS to suit their particular end application, or add RTLS capability to an existing system.
The module may be configured to behave as an “anchor” one of the fixed nodes in the system or a “tag” one of the mobile located nodes in the system.
The module configuration may be achieved either via Bluetooth using the companion application (Decawave DRTLS Manager) or via an SPI or UART connection from an external host.The module incorporates Decawave’s DW1000 UWB transceiver which the module’s on-board firmware drives to implement the network of anchor nodes and perform the two-way ranging exchanges with the tag nodes enabling each tag to compute its own location.
The module also incorporates the Nordic Semiconductor NRF52832 IC providing the Bluetooth connectivity used for configuration and the microprocessor that runs the firmware which drives the DW1000 and provides the RTLS enabling functionality. A more complete description of this may be found in DWM1001 System Overview.
The module is typically mounted on a PCB, such as the DWM1001-DEV product. The MDEK1001 enables system developers evaluate the product and/or begin their system development before embarking on their own designs.
■Main Features of the MDEK1001
●Out-of-the-box wireless Real-Time Location System(RTLS), including anchors and tags (and gateway support)without designing any hardware or writing a single line of code
●Quick and easy installation and setup
●12RTLS units (DWM1001-DEV) configurable as anchors or tags
●Configure and control the module via APIs via UART/SPI/Bluetooth
●Modify the module firmware to customise your application
●Configuration & location application for tablets/smartphones (Android 6.0 or 7.0)
●Configuration & location web client through network gateway
■Analytics
Note: The Android application (Decawave DRTLS Manager) reports application crash diagnostics back to Decawave (and design partner) in order to improve future versions
