Sensor Node<br />
<strong>Crossbow</strong>’s sensor nodes provide proven<br />
wireless technology and a comprehensive<br />
sensor suite in a fully integrated,<br />
battery-operated unit with indoor<br />
packaging. The integrated sensor board<br />
uses energy-efficient digital sensors for<br />
extended battery life and performance<br />
including a dual-axis accelerometer,<br />
barometric pressure, ambient light,<br />
and relative humidity and temperature<br />
sensors.<br />
The nodes integrate a processor/radio<br />
board and antenna that are powered by<br />
two AA batteries. The SN24040 node<br />
provides a direct sequence spread spectrum<br />
radio (DSSS) supporting the 2.4<br />
GHz global ISM band. The SN9040 node<br />
includes a frequency shift key radio (FSK)<br />
supporting the 868/916 MHz<br />
frequency band.<br />
The sensor nodes come preprogrammed<br />
and configured with <strong>Crossbow</strong>’s reliable,<br />
ad-hoc, low-power mesh networking<br />
software (XMesh). This provides<br />
plug-and-play network scalability for<br />
<strong>Crossbow</strong>’s wireless sensor network<br />
Starter and Professional Kits.<br />
The MoteView application for<br />
Windows-based PCs provides an<br />
intuitive graphical user interface to<br />
visualize the sensor data received from<br />
the sensor node and manage the<br />
wireless sensor network. MoteView<br />
is available for free download from<br />
<strong>Crossbow</strong>’s web site.<br />
Advanced Users<br />
The sensor node’s processor/radio<br />
boards are fully programmable and<br />
supported by <strong>Crossbow</strong>’s MoteWorks <br />
software platform. MoteWorks<br />
enables the development of custom<br />
sensor applications that are optimized<br />
for low-power, battery operated,<br />
ad-hoc mesh networks.<br />
Over-the-air-programming (OTAP)<br />
allows the sensor nodes to be<br />
updated with new firmware and<br />
applications without having to open<br />
the package or connect a<br />
programming cable. Over-the-airprogramming<br />
provides for low-cost<br />
maintenance during deployment,<br />
especially for sensor nodes that are<br />
placed in remote locations.<br />
* FCC/CE certified for 2.4 GHz. Certification pending for 868/916 MHz.<br />
