[Tinyos-help] RE: Range micaz motes

[Michael Collett]

Hi,

If you have MoteVeiew (which comes with xbow developer kits) then this has a facility for programming motes. Part of the GUI for this includes options to set the transmission power (as well as radio band). You make the application beforehand, then select the .exe file from your build directory.

I've not verified that choosing different bands/powers actually works, but it could be worth a shot.

Mike

Yeh, i did the right one. The only strange thing in my program is that i work under contrib/rincon directory (i'm using the flash applications), and then in the makefile i force the compiler to compile the MakeXbowlocal file under contrib/xbow.
Is it may be a source of errors?
 
cheers

	There are separate MakeXbowlocal defines for mica2,z...
	You did set the right one, right?
	
	Otherwise you could disconnect the antennas,
	or make really inefficient ones.
