Running the STM32W-RFCKIT RF control kit

In the STM32W-RFCKIT RF control kit, the Simple MAC talk application is preprogrammed
on both kit boards.
The Simple MAC talk demonstration application is a simple application that demonstrates
point-to-point IEEE 802.15.4 wireless communications using the STM32W108xx MCU.
It allows basic RF control of the USB dongle LEDs by pushing the application board's
buttons. Further, it can be used as a wireless RS-232 cable replacement. For example, all
data received on the serial port will be sent wirelessly to the other board and all the data
received wirelessly will be sent to the serial port.

Installing the STM32W-RFCKIT RF control kit software tree

To install the specific kit software and documentation tree, download the related installer file
from the STM32W 32-bit RF microcontroller webpages, then start the installation process
on your destination folder.

Building and download the Simple MAC talk demonstration application

The Simple MAC talk demonstration application runs on all STM32W-RFCKIT RF control kit
boards.
Using the prebuilt talk binary image
To download and run the prebuilt talk binary image on the kit's board, use the
stm32w_flasher utility with the prebuilt talk.s37 binary file. For information on how to use the
stm32w_flasher utility, refer to
Using the talk IAR project
An IAR workspace is also provided for building the Simple MAC talk demonstration
application.
Follow these steps to build the talk demonstration application image talk.s37.
1. Open the IAR toolset.
2. From the File, Open, Workspace menu, open the talk.eww IAR project.
3. From the Project menu, select Rebuild All. A binary file talk.s37 is built in the specific
demonstration application directory under the selected installation path.
For the talk application, two workspaces are provided:
1. STM32W108 used to build a binary image with no IAP bootloader support.
2. STM32W108-btl used to build a binary image supporting the IAP bootloader (file
iap_bootloader.s37 in the prebuilt folder).
