    CHAPTER INTRODUCTION Silica Rialto Board is useful system to evaluate a basic IEE802.15.4 network using JN5168 wireless module. Rialto board has a single built-in USB dongle. Simply switching serial channel from terminal application to programming software, you can perform two alternate functions: a - Evaluate network with simple serial monitor (using a PC terminal such as HyperTerminal) b - Program Firmware into JN5168 module (using JN-SW-4007-Flash-Programmer v1.8.9)

    Install.zip also include JN-SW-4041-SDK-Toolchain-v.1.1.exe and JN-SW-4065-JN516x-JenNet-IP-SDK-v857.exe to install developement suite. For JN5168 modules programming, you must install FlashGUI programmer from JN-SW-4007 (included in Install.zip). Please, note that JN-UG-3007 refers to Flash GUI programmer version 1.8.4, and JN-SW-4047 contains new release 1.8.9 of Flash GUI programmer. See release note document included in JN-SW-4047 package. The release 1.8.9 must be installed for JN516x modules programming.
