MReX-PCB User Guide V1.02
Introduction
This user guide describes configuration and use of the WTE M eX-PCB. This PCB allows simple
integration into a system and incorporates the M eX-460 Module. For command use and detailed
operation, consult the M eX-460 User Manual. Not shown is the antenna connection. This may be
an SMA connector fitted to the red M eX-460 module (with antenna) or a 16cm wire (one quarter
the wavelength of the frequency of operation).

Programming the MReX Module
The Programming Header contains a 5V (VCC) pin which can be used to power the M eX Module
for loading configuration or uploading new firmware.
Do NOT apply vol age o his pin if ba eries are fi ed.
Note: Serial connection is 3.3V TTL. The M eX-P OG USB to serial adaptor can be provided
for serial interfacing.
Inputs

LEDs utputs
Connecting the LEDs using Open Drain (bypassing PCB resistors)
The LED outputs are open drain/collectors suitable for sinking a maximum of 50mA. The example
is being used to drive an LED from an external supply. Should the output be presented to potential
ESD conditions (such as any terminal screw or external connection), ESD devices should be fitted.
If the output is to be used to control a small relay, it is essential that a flyback diode is fitted across
the coil of the relay.
Only the Cathode connections of the LEDS are shown here. They are connected to an open drain
output. As shown in the simplified schematic above, it is the users responsibility to select a resistor
that suits the application, and then connect to a suitable power source that has a common GND.

LED/Piezo Resistor Configuration
The following resistor configuration information describes how to modify the M eX-PCB if LEDs
are to be used powered directly from the fitted AAA battery pack, or how to fit a piezo sounder (and
required components).
1 is used to limit current through the green LED/Piezo. Typical LED value resistor value from
220 to 470 . When a piezo sounder is fitted 1 = 47 .
2 is used by the piezo to improve audio response (1K typically). The resistor fitted should ideally
be selected to produced the greatest audio output.
3 is used to limit current through the ed LED. Typical LED value resistor value from 220 to
470 .
When the command * X_ENABLE=0 is sent to the M eX (disabling the receiver), the green LED
operation changes so that instead of flashing once a second, this output is modulated, so that when
connected to a piezo sounder, a beep will be heard prior to input activated transmissions.
