The lessons learned are: 1. I think the cygwin update needed to get to TOS 1.1.11 (?? or at least .14) requires that the Windows /dev/ttySN mechanism be working correctly for UISP. This does not appear to be the case with my USB->Serial adapter as I described in a previous post today. I've used COM3 as the serial port all these years, but /dev/ttyS2 is not found as far as my system is concerned. So caution should be applied to upgrading when using USB... 2. I found that 1.1.10 is needed for micaz. 1.1.7 seemed to work but had a problem with message length over the UART from a micaz. Otherwise .10 had everything I needed and is the last supported version vis Xbow themselves. Also the contrib/xbow directory should be used for app development. This is probably more important for mica2, but the MakeXbowlocal file contains all the nice radio setting compiler flags that you would want. 3. Jeongyeup Paek's advice on using micaz was invaluable and should be permanently posted someplace. Under the title: TOS_Msg Packet format in CC2420 (MicaZ and TelosB) if you need to search for it. Basically ALWAYS use mica2 in your MOTECOM, NOT micaz.... thanks everyone MS _______________________________________________ Tinyos-help mailing list [email protected] https://mail.millennium.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tinyos-helpGreat, nice to hear you got it together. Now you can move on to getting sleep modes working with measurement apps... Just kidding but that's what I'm totally lost with. And I need it bad.Regards, Harri
