se.sics.cooja.plugins.Visualizer = \
|
|
|
|
|
<b>Visualizer</b> \
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The visualizer shows the positions of simulated motes as viewed from above (XY-plane). \
|
|
|
|
|
It is possible to zoom (CRTL+Mouse drag) and pan (Shift+Mouse drag) the current view. \
|
|
|
|
|
Mouse right-click a mote or unoccupied space for a popup menu with more options. \
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The visualizer supports "visualizer skins". \
|
|
|
|
|
Each skin provides some specific information, such as ongoing simulated radio traffic, or the IP addresses of motes. \
|
|
|
|
|
Multiple skins can be active at the same time. \
|
|
|
|
|
Click the upper "Select visualizer skin" button to select or deselect skins. \
|
|
|
|
|
<p><b>Useful skins</b> \
|
|
|
|
|
<br>Mote IDs: prints the unique mote IDs inside motes. \
|
|
|
|
|
<br>Log output: prints the last printf message above motes. \
|
|
|
|
|
<br>Radio traffic: displays inter-mote radio communication. \
|
|
|
|
|
<br>Radio environment (UDGM): enables configurating the UDGM radio medium. \
|
|
|
|
|
<p><b>Tip</b><br> \
|
|
|
|
|
Right-click visualizer to show the popup menu, and click "Hide window decorations".

se.sics.cooja.plugins.LogListener = \
|
|
|
|
|
<b>Log Listener</b>\
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Listens to log output from all simulated motes. \
|
|
|
|
|
Right-click the main area for a popup menu with more options. \
|
|
|
|
|
<p>You may filter shown logs by entering regular expressions in the bottom text field. \
|
|
|
|
|
Filtering is performed on both the Mote and the Data columns.\

se.sics.cooja.plugins.TimeLine = \
|
|
|
|
|
<b>Timeline</b>\
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The timeline arranges historical simulation events into a graphical timeline. \
|
|
|
|
|
The timeline can for example be used to overview the behavior of complex power-saving MAC protocols.\
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Events appear as colored rectangles in the timeline. For more information about a particular event, hover the mouse above it.\
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The checkboxes in the left pane control what event types are shown in the timeline. \
|
|
|
|
|
Currently, four event types are supported (see below). Note that the control pane can be hidden to save space. \
|
|
|
|
|
<p>All simulated motes are by default added to the timeline, however, any unwanted motes can be removed by mouse clicking the node ID (left).\
|
|
|
|
|
<p>To display a vertical time marker on the timeline, press and hold the mouse on the time ruler (top).\
|
|
|
|
|
<p>For more options, such as zooming and saving raw data to file, right-click the mouse for a popup menu.\
|
|
|
|
|
<p><b>Radio RX/TX</b>\
|
|
|
|
|
<br>Shows radio connection events. Transmissions are painted blue, receptions are green, and interfered radios are red.\
|
|
|
|
|
<p><b>Radio ON/OFF</b>\
|
|
|
|
|
<br>Shows whether the mote radio is on or off. Turned on radios are indicated with gray color.\
|
|
|
|
|
<p><b>LEDs</b>\
|
|
|
|
|
<br>Shows LED state: red, green, and blue. (Assumes all mote types have exactly three LEDs.)\
|
|
|
|
|
<p><b>Watchpoints</b>\
|
|
|
|
|
<br>Shows triggered watchpoints, currently only supported by MSPSim-based motes. To add watchpoints, use the Msp Code Watcher plugin.

se.sics.cooja.plugins.SimControl = \
|
|
|
|
|
<b>Control Panel</b>\
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Use the control panel to start and stop the current simulation. \
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Note that toggling simulation execution is also possible by the keyboard shortcut <i>Ctrl+S</i>. \
|
|
|
|
|
<p><i>Step millisecond</i> executes all events within the next simulated millisecond. \
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The execution speed can be controlled via the bottom slider. \
|
|
|
|
|
If the slider value is non-zero, sleep events are scheduled in the simulation loop. \
|
|
|
|
|
<p>By setting the slider to <i>Real time</i>, the execution speed is limited to at maximum real time. \
|
|
|
|
|
The <i>Real time</i> slider value is to the right of <i>No simulation delay</i>: select the slider button and use to keyboard to navigate here. \
|
|
|
|
|
<p><i>Run until</i> can be used to configure a time (in milliseconds) where the simulation will automatically pause.
