WINC1500 AP Scan Example for SAM4S XPlained Pro Documentation

Introduction

This example demonstrates the use of the WINC1500 with the SAM Xplained Pro board to scan for access point.
It uses the following hardware:

• the SAM Xplained Pro.
• the WINC1500 on EXT1.

Main Files

• main.c : Initialize the WINC1500 and scan AP until defined AP is founded.

Usage

1. Configure below code in the main.h for AP to be connected.

   *    #define MAIN_WLAN_SSID         "DEMO_AP"
   *    #define MAIN_WLAN_AUTH         M2M_WIFI_SEC_WPA_PSK
   *    #define MAIN_WLAN_PSK          "12345678"
   * 

2. Build the program and download it into the board.
3. On the computer, open and configure a terminal application as the follows.

   *    Baud Rate : 115200
   *    Data : 8bit
   *    Parity bit : none
   *    Stop bit : 1bit
   *    Flow control : none
   * 

4. Start the application.
5. In the terminal window, the following text should appear:

   *    -- WINC1500 AP scan example --
   *    -- SAMD21_XPLAINED_PRO --
   *    -- Compiled: xxx xx xxxx xx:xx:xx --
   *
   *    [1] SSID:DEMO_AP1
   *    [2] SSID:DEMO_AP2
   *    [3] SSID:DEMO_AP
   *    Found DEMO_AP
   *    Wi-Fi connected
   *    Wi-Fi IP is xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
   *
