[Tinyos-help] Is transmitted packet size fixed or variable?

Hi list. I've taken a look at tep111 and tep126, but there's something which isn't clear to me from the teps. Are the packets transmitted over radio a fixed length or variable (based on requested payload length)? eg, if you leave TOSH_DATA_LENGTH at 28, but send a payload of 2 bytes, will the ot

Anyone know why the default payload size for a TOSMsg in tinyos is set to 29 bytes? -Brian ___ Tinyos-help mailing list Tinyos-help@millennium.berkeley.edu https://www.millennium.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tinyos-help

Good to hear. I was hoping there wasn't some problem with the newest version of vmware or something. Kevin On Sun, Mar 30, 2008 at 9:44 PM, ST <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Kevin, > Yes, it's working now, sorry my bad, I mixed them up. > > > > On Sun, Mar 30, 2008 at 1:11 PM, Kevin Klues <

[Tinyos-help] Problem with using HplMsp430interrupt interface.

Hi, I am using tinyos-2.x and tmote sky hardware. On tmote sky hardware port 60, port 61, port 62 and port 63 of MSP430 are available as GPIO. I want to use interrupt interface for GPIO ports 60, 61, 62 and 63. But problem is that these ports are not available in HplMsp430interrupt interface.

[Tinyos-help] Interpreting POWER dbg messages in TOSSIM

I have the following output when I run a simualtion in TOSSIM with POWER dbg mode enabled. What are the units of power? Is it the energy consumed at that particular instance? or is it the energy consumed until that point in the simulation? 0: POWER: Mote 0 RADIO_STATE TX at 3937200 1: POWER: Mote

Re: [Tinyos-help] Resource.reserve returns EBUSY forever after some time

Thanks for that info, I should change my code. Since I'm in an early state of development, my code currently just simulates shutting down by not reading the adc and not paying attention to the radio. Something seems to be going on when I don't read the ADC, because my sensors are very sensitive

So there are two different sets of instructions for doing this. one of them has you download the xubntos installation image and install that manually into a vmware server. The other allows you to downlaod the precongifured vmware image and run it using vmware player. It looks like you may have s

No ideas about the downloadable VM from my side, sorry. I didn't even notice that it is there ;-) But you might want to try to create your own virtual machine for VMware player (e.g., use easyvmx.com), and afterwards inside install from the live CD image (as this is based on Ubuntu, it also feat

[Tinyos-help] Verifying power down mode on a telos mote

Hi, I am just wondering is there any other way of verifying that a mote has entered a power down state e.g. LPM3, other than measuring the current across the power terminals? I was trying to light up the 3 LEDs, then try enter LPM3 by entering a low power state and see if the LEDs turn off. T

Hi, When you run the Listen tool, you get the hex numbers, right? Seems to be working then. The listen tool prints simply the message contents (as hex numbers). So apparently you receive messages from the mote. For more information check the tutorial: http://docs.tinyos.net/index.php/Mote-PC_

Again, I can only talk about Boomerang sources . Boomerang lowpower works upon the principle of synchronised global time known to all motes in the network. All synchronised motes then go to sleep and wake up at the same time (duty cycle). All messages are sent/received within this duty cycle. M
