[Tinyos-help] How to know if mote is connected to serial port

[Guillem Corominas]

Well, I meant the mote to know if it was connected,
not the computer, so in the nesC program loaded into the mote,
it would be nice if I could use a statment similar to:

if (is_connected_to_serial())
     act as a collector;
else
     act as a sender;

instead of what I saw in the tutorial:

if (MOTEID == 1)
     act as a collector;
else
     act as a sender;


if I could do something like that, any mote could be the collector.
thanks,

guillem
