WICED Smart Quick Start Guide

Run an Application

This section assumes that
and that the heart rate monitor application has successfully been downloaded to the WICED Smart tag.
Before the application can be tested, the power supply for the tag must be selected.

USB Powered Application

During programming, the tag is powered by the USB interface. After programming is complete, the newly
downloaded application automatically runs and no further action is needed. Further attempts to download an
application will fail because the UART port is no longer configured for downloads.
The Reset button must be momentarily pressed to enable downloads again.

Coin Cell Powered Application

To run the application from a CR2032 coin cell:
1. Disconnect the tag from the PC USB interface.
2. Set the position of switches SW4 and SW5 to the VCOIN positions (see
locations):
a. SW4 = Position 3
b. SW5 = Position 1
3. Install a CR2032 coin cell in the battery holder on the bottom of the tag. Ensure that the battery polarity is
correct.

Application Test Example

A number of BLE applications are available for phones and tablets. In this example, the LightBlue iOS
application is used on an Apple iPhone 5.
Download the LightBlue App (from the Apple App Store) to the iOS device and start the application. Ensure that
Central is selected on the bottom taskbar. If the heart rate monitor app is working correctly, the LightBlue App
shows BLE HR Monitor in a box, as shown in the upper-portion of the left-most LightBlue window in the
screenshot in Figure 3. The heart rate monitor application is configured to regularly send dummy heart rate
measurements. To see measurements update in real time: tap BLE HR Monitor > Heart Rate > Heart Rate
Measurement and then tap Start Notify at the bottom of the Details screen.
