It is written entirely in Python, using the SmartMe= sh SDK, and is open source. This means that you can reuse/modify/adapt any = part of DustLink without restriction (see the license in the DustLink sourc= e code).

In the System menu, navigate to the =E2=80=9CManagers=E2=80=9D page. Thi= s page contains a form in which you specify the serial port(s) of your mana= ger(s).
In the Add form, enter the API port of your manager, e.g. COM7. This port appears in the =E2=80=9CManager Connections=E2=80=9D table.<=

After 10s, make sure the state has transitioned from =E2=80=9Cinactive= =E2=80=9D to =E2=80=9Cactive=E2=80=9D.

isAP
is true only for the manager.assignedBw
is the bandwidth assigned by the manager. It is=
normal for the manager to have no bandwidth assigned for itself.DustLink continuously gathers information about the network by sending s= erial commands to the manager. Every hour, it analyzes all this information= and runs a number of tests. Those tests can either pass or fail. You can s= tart the test manually.
Click the "Run tests now" to force the tests to run.
Ask your instructor for an overview of what the tests do.
