[Tinyos-help] Radio problem when XSensorMTS400

2006-03-03 Thread Jonny.Ma
Hello everyone, I got radio problem when use the XSensorMTS400. I can only get data from mote by plugging the mote to mib510 in UART. But it doesn't work when I test with one TOSBase in mib510 and the other mote send data by radio. And I check the frequency carefully. There is no problem. I run

[Tinyos-help] Integrate new sensor with Serial Output to micaZ mote

Hi all, I would like to ask all of you about questions related to integrating new type of sensors into micaZ mote platform. This new type of sensors provides a serial data output. So is it possible to connect this sensor to micaZ mote for taking data, pre-process and send to the PC for

2006-03-03 Thread Harri Siirtola
Hi Aung, You can connect it into UART 1. The only drawback is, the tx/rx pins are also used for external flash access and there's no built-in arbitration. So you should take care of that if using your sensor and flash in the same application. Regards, Harri At 07:38 PM 3/3/2006

Hi Hannes, All, Thanks for that. I have already tried that and it works to some extent. The problem is that the node will only pick up the odd packet where the crc is not correct (although this shows that it will pick up a failed crc). The other times it just doesn't seem to pick up

Hi I am working on the MICA2 motes on the topic of localization. I had two questions1. In nesC, how do i change the power of the radio. Tha manual says that appropriate values need to be written to register 0x0B. Do i need to use assembly? 2. Can I program the mote to transmit at a particular

Hi Andrew, I am looking to use the serial port to talk with another device. What I was thinking was that I could cut the UART1RX and UART1TX lines before they go to the I/O buffer and reroute them from the MSP430. The only problem is that I am not sure that the bsl does not send signals over
