\section slipintro-intro Introduction
|
|
|
|
This is a brief introduction how to program ESB sensor nodes over
|
|
radio under Windows. It is assumed that you already have the
|
|
environment setup for programming ESB sensor nodes using JTAG cable.
|
|
|
|
\section slipintro-configuring Configuring SLIP under Windows XP
|
|
|
|
This section describes how to setup a SLIP connection under Windows. A
|
|
SLIP connection forwards TCP/IP traffic to/from the sensor nodes and
|
|
lets you communicate with them using standard network tools such as
|
|
\c ping.

\section slipintro-setup Setup ESB for over the air programming
|
|
|
|
-# Make sure you have the latest contiki, contiki-msp430, and
|
|
contiki-esb (older versions of contiki might not work with SLIP under
|
|
Windows)
|
|
-# Install the contiki kernel by running
|
|
\code
|
|
make core.u
|
|
\endcode
|
|
-# Attach the ESB node to the serial port and make sure it is
|
|
turned on. Select your ESB SLIP connection in your 'Network
|
|
Connections' and choose 'Connect' (or double click on it). If
|
|
everything works Windows should say that you have a new connection.
|
|
-# Set the IP address for the node by pinging it (it will claim the
|
|
IP address of the first ping it hears). Note that the slip interface
|
|
has IP address 172.16.0.1 but the node will have the IP address
|
|
172.16.1.1.
|
|
\code
|
|
ping 172.16.1.1
|
|
\endcode
|
|
|
|
If everything works the node should click and reply to the pings.
|
|
|
|
\section slipintro-send Send programs over the air
|
|
|
|
Contiki applications to be installed via radio are compiled somewhat
|
|
different compared to normal applications.
|
|
|
|
Each node needs an IP address for OTA to work. A node id can be
|
|
specified when you upload the contiki kernel to a node and this is
|
|
used to construct an IP address for the node. If you specify 2 as
|
|
node id, the node will have the IP address 172.16.1.2. Each node
|
|
should have its own unique node id.
|
|
|
|
You need to compile a core and upload it onto the nodes. All nodes
|
|
must run the same core. Move to the directory '\c contiki-esb' and
|
|
run
|
|
|
|
\code
|
|
make
|
|
make core.u nodeid=X
|
|
\endcode
|
|
|
|
to upload the core to your nodes. Use the number 1, 2, 3, etc,
|
|
as the node id (\c X) for the nodes. This will give the nodes the IP
|
|
addresses 172.16.1.1, 172.16.1.2, etc.
|
|
|
|
Then you need a program to send the application to connected
|
|
nodes. Compile it by running
|
|
|
|
\code
|
|
make send
|
|
\endcode
|
|
|
|
Make sure you have a node with IP address 172.16.1.1 connected to your
|
|
serial port and have SLIP activated. Then compile and send a
|
|
testprogram by running
|
|
|
|
\code
|
|
make beeper.ce
|
|
./send 172.16.1.1 beeper.ce
|
|
\endcode
