Re: [Tinyos-help] downloading code to a new platform
Hi, Do the LEDs work if you write a simple program in assembler? Can you control the LEDs when using assembler directives in NesC code (without timer)? If yes, does it also work with timers? Cheers, Urs Puru schrieb: hi all, we are developing a mote-like (mica2-like) device, which currently only has the mcu and minimum cicuitry to get it started (no external flash, no radio yet). the initial idea is to compile apps using tinyos and copy the corresponding ihex files using icc-avr or such onto the new platform. we are facing problems with this procedure, have tried testing the procedure using Blink, as the LED circuitry is available on the new platform. Have verified the fuse bits, disabled to bootloader and have also written a Blink program in icc-avr which toggles port a bits and in turn does toggle the LEDs. This icc-avr hex file when copied via uisp on a crossbow mica2 toggles the LEDs as well, but the Blink ihex file generated via tinyos copied via icc-avr to the new platform does nothing. any directions on how to proceed or what is the actual load process would be helpful. thanks, - Puru ___ Tinyos-help mailing list Tinyos-help@Millennium.Berkeley.EDU https://mail.millennium.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tinyos-help
Re: [Tinyos-help] downloading code to a new platform
Hi Urs, I wrote a simple program using ICC-AVR, which toggled bits on port A and which in turn blinked the leds and this hex program when copied on the platform worked correctly. infact this hex file copied on the mica2 using uisp also works correctly. i tried with and without the timer. note this is not using assembler directives in NesC, but similar assemble directives with the icc-avr interface. am not sure if tinyos is looking for h/w that is not present on the platform (e.g., flash, radio etc and failing, which i think is unlikely), or if i am some wrong settings or smtg else ... thanks, -- puru On 5/29/07, Urs Hunkeler [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, Do the LEDs work if you write a simple program in assembler?

RE: [Tinyos-help] downloading code to a new platform
I think you should modify the hardware.h file of mica2 platform. Change pin and port assignemnts with your new platform.

Re: [Tinyos-help] downloading code to a new platform
the pin mappings of the new platform (for the limited circuitry and the leds) is identical to the mica2 and hence did not touch hardware.h -- puru On 5/29/07, Firat TARAKTAS [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I think you should modify the hardware.h file of mica2 platform.
