Getting Started with SimpleLink Studio
4.2
Run the Software
The Getting Started with WLAN Station example uses SimpleLink Studio. This example performs the
following functions:
1. Program restores WLAN configuration to factory default
2. Prompts the user for the SSID of an AP
3. Prompts the user for the security type
4. Prompts the user for the password to the AP
5. Attempts to acquire an IP address through DHCP
6. Attempts to reach the internet
NOTE: For full compatibility ensure Visual Studio 2010 is used. Newer versions of Visual Studio will
not work with the device. Visual Studio 2012 works with the "getting started" example, but
gives the error code -2003 for the weather example, and error code -2005 for the email app.
