To use Mamba, you need two Mamba shields and two Arduino uno.
Arduino IDE can be downloaded from: http://arduino.cc/en/Main/Software. In this guide, we are going to use IDE 22.
The serial terminal software X-CTU can be downloaded from: http://www.linksprite.com/pub/software/setup_xctu_5100.exe
Please download the sample code from: https://github.com/linksprite/mamba
Please remove:
arduino-0022\hardware\arduino\cores\arduino\WInterrupts.c
In arduino IDE, open mamba_arduino\mamba_arduino.pde and compile the code:
Open X-CTU, we will see two Unos with their COM ports.
Load the code to two unos through the IDE by selecting correct COM ports.
After this step, the LED RDY on the mamba shield will turn on, which means the powerline communication chip is initialized and ready.
