hello all,
  i am very new to tinyos and i need to get some fundamental knowledge. Sorry my question may seem like that of a novice, but i need help. i just installed tiny OS, but i would like to know how i can port it to an Atmega128 microprocessor. what i'm i expected to get as output if succesful. What features do i see in the output, can i make any changes to observe any kind of differences in my alterations.
  thanks, help the soul that searches for knowledge.

Hi all,

I want to implement RTS-CTS and so i want my programs to use SMAC instead of the normal MAC ( I guess its BMAC ) which most of the programs use. Any idea how should i wire all the components and use SMAC with my programs ????

Thanks in advance,
Bhushan

hi All,
I'm using simpleTime component with Time and TimeUtils interfaces. Is it
possible to measure time intervals less then 30ms? Under this time
difference I can get no measures.

thank you

Subject: [Tinyos-help] Re: question on simple_transmit from
Rfm_model.c
To: tinyos-help at millennium.berkeley.edu
Message-ID:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

For example, let's say we have 2 motes. Mote 0 is transmitting 0s all the
time, so transmitting[5] = 0, radio_active[0] = 0, and radio_active[1] = 0.

While mote 0 is transmitting 0s, the TOSH_rfm_rx_bit() in
TOS_SIGNAL_HANDLER(SIG_OUTPUT_COMPARE2B, ()) of mote 1 is called. And
because radio_active[1] == 0, TOSH_rfm_rx_bit() returns 0. After 12 bits, it
signal ChannelMon.idleDetect() to show the channel is free. But actually
mote 0 is using the channel and transmitting 0s.

Why is it so? Any help is appreciated.


Regards,
Haibin

Hi all,

We have problem with our MIB510, and I think it is not matter of syntax in 
writing the command in the bash shell. We will appreciate if somebody has 
suggestions.



We have a MICA mote kit (the professional one) consisting of a programmer 
MIB510 and some motes (mica2 and mica2dot). We use an usb-to-serial bridge 
or RS232 cable to connect the pc to the programmer.

We have done all the staff needed in order to start uploading applications 
to the motes and using "mote-view" to test a network and it's ok.

We uploaded some applications to the motes and used "mote-view" to take and 
display the data, and all worked fine.
Afterwards, We tried to upload another application to a mica2 without 
changing any settings, by simply typing 'make mica2 install' (in the cygwin 
bash shell) and after successful compilation there was a message like:
------------------------------------
'admin at adhok /opt/tinyos-1.x/contrib/xbow/apps/cnttoledsandrfm

--------------------------------


The programmer with one mica2 as a base station, however, still works. We 
can take data from the programmer with a mica2 attached to it programmed 
with TOSbase application.
So, the serial connection at least in one direction from programmer to PC 
still works.

We tried any syntax and everything we could imagine, but the programmer is 
still not responding.

We suppose some hardware problem. If somebody has experienced with such 
problem we will appreciate any shared information.
Thank you all,

Hi,

Are you using COM4 (/dev/ttyS3) with MoteView,too? (The installer seems
to try using that). Is your bash command complete? The correct command
should be

$ make mica2 reinstall,0 mib510,/dev/ttyS3

Another thing is, some motes are quite reluctant to accept programming,
many times I must give the reinstall command ten times and finally it
can connect. Try with another mote, if you haven't already done that.

Regards,

Harri

Hello,

I want to use TPSN protocol for my project. I downloaded the code from 
your site and tried implementing it on tinyos 1.1.15 (for tossim). I got 
the following error:
