Hi all, funnily enough, now it seems to work. I guess after playing with the USB connections and stuff may jam them up a bit after a while. I tried again after a fresh restart and everything works.
So, like I commented yesterday, I wanted to develop some kind of SerialForwarder for multiple motes connected to the computer per USB. I have been giving it some thought and I can't seem to find a way of doing it. I guess it might work for listening to the motes, but not for sending to them for the computer. For example, if we have two appications, say, one which listens to the motes, which periodically send a status message to it, and another which allows us to turn the leds on and off from the command line in the computer. If the listening application has all ports open to listen to all motes, and the led control application wants to send a command to a mote, it can't open a connection itself to that mote because it'd break the already existing connection that the listening program has with that mote. The best solution that I have thought of consists on writing a USBCom class which would handle all connections (basically create Phoenix and MoteIF objects based on the motes connected to the computer -- at first manually, but it'd be pretty interesting if it could be done automatically afterwards, a bit based on the idea David Moss commented some days ago), and integrate all independent applications into one program, a kind of shell which would allow the user to control all of them through commands, eg. "listen for status messages", "turn the red led on mote 5 on", etc... What do you think of this? Is it too complicated? Does anyone have a simpler/better suggestion to work on this? Any positive and negative comments will be greatly appreciated :) Thank you, - Jose. _______________________________________________ Tinyos-help mailing list Tinyos-help@Millennium.Berkeley.EDU https://mail.millennium.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tinyos-help
