ETRX2USB
1 Introduction
The ETRX2USB wireless mesh networking USB Stick is effectively an RS232 to USB bridge
connected to an ETRX2 ZigBee module. This allows connectivity to a computer’s USB port.
The supplied drivers create a virtual COM Port, so that the command line of the ETRX2 can be
accessed via any terminal software application.
When using Windows® 9x/XP/2000 the Telegesis Terminal application can be used as described in
the Development Kit manual.

During USB suspend the current will drop by 25.6mA in all modes.
Please note that the power consumption in various power modes is firmware and usage dependent.

5 ETRX2 I/O Connectivity
The I/Os of the built in ETRX2 are connected as follows:
•
•
•
I/O1 is connected to the LED (drive I/O1 low to sink LED).
I/O2 is the CTS input for the ETRX2. Make sure I/O2 is never defined as an output.
I/O4 is the RTS input for the ETRX2.
Important Note: The lines for hardware handshaking are connected, so even when not using
hardware handshaking I/O2 should never be defined as an output as this would drive against the
incoming CTS signal via a 1kΩ resistor and increase the current consumption.
Note that if you use the command “AT&F” on the USB stick, I/O1 will revert to being an input and
the LED will not light up. To restore its function as a pilot light, use the command “ATS0E=00FA”
(with R2xx firmware) or “ATS17=00FA” (with R3xx) followed by a reset.
6 Firmware upgrades
The firmware which is loaded onto the embedded ETRX2 Module can be upgraded over the air or
via the virtual COM port as described in the Development Kit manual.
Alternatively, access to the SIF programming interface is possible by opening the cover on the side
of the ETRX2USB ZigBee USB stick.

7 Driver Installation and Operation
The drivers provided will generate a virtual COM port allowing easy access to the serial port of the
embedded ETRX2.
To read more about the ETRX2 wireless mesh networking module and its command line interface
please read the corresponding documentation which can be found at www.telegesis.com.
7.1
Windows 9x/XP/2k Driver Installation
The driver package downloadable from the Support Æ Software download page of
www.telegesis.com should be unzipped into a local folder.
When executing the file
‘TgVCPInstaller.exe’ prior to plugging in the ETRX2USB stick an installer will guide you through
the steps required for the driver installation. If prompted that the driver has not passed the
Windows logo test simply press ‘Continue Anyway’.
Figure 1: Found New Hardware Wizard
After insertion of the stick, Windows® will prompt that new hardware has been found. If you have
run the ‘TgVCPInstaller.exe’ Windows will be able to install the driver by automatically as shown in
Figure 2. If you have not run ‘TgVCPInstaller.exe’ you will have to manually point to the directory
into which you have unzipped the driver.

Figure 2: Install software Automatically
Figure 3: Windows Logo Test
Please note that each ETRX2USB has a unique serial number which requires the installation
procedure to be repeated with every new ETRX2USB being attached to the computer. This allows
multiple ETRX2USB sticks to be used on the same computer at any one time.
In order to find out the identity/number of the virtual com port the stick has been assigned to,
please enter the Device Manager under the Windows Computer Management screen (see below)
and click on the Ports (COM and LPT) section where you should find the new virtual COM port. By
double clicking on the entry of the virtual COM port you can also change the number assigned to
the virtual COM port when entering the advanced setup of the device.

Macintosh and Linux drivers
A Virtual Com Port driver kit for Mac and Linux can be obtained by following the link on our website
on the Support Æ Software download page.
In addition, one of our customers has written a Linux driver that will be included in the 2.6.25
kernel. It can be found at www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/gregkh/gregkh-2.6/patches/.
(Note that this is for information only, and this software was developed entirely outside Telegesis.)
8 Custom Firmware Development
If you intend to develop custom firmware to go onto the ETRX2USB you need to contact Ember to
obtain access to their suite of development tools and their stack. The USB stick contains an
ETRX2 module based on the Ember EM250 and a USB-to-serial bridge chip. The ETRX2
communicates via its serial port, so the user’s firmware must use the UART of Serial Controller 1.
The nRTS and nCTS lines are connected to the USB bridge chip. The LED on the USB stick is
driven from ETRX2 pad I/O1, which is EM250 pin GPIO14.
In order to download custom firmware onto the ETRX2, the Ember bootloader can be used or
alternatively the ETRX2USB can be directly connected to the Ember InSight Adapter for
programming and real time debugging.

Customers’ PO’s must state the Ordering/Product Code.
There is no “blank” version of the ETRX2 Module available. All Modules carry both the Ember
Stack and the Telegesis AT style Command Layer. Where customers wish to add their own
firmware they can erase and write it to the flash memory of the Ember EM250.
Please contact Telegesis if you require additional AT style commands or specific integration
assistance.
