[Tinyos-help] TestSerial application not receiving packets from mote

[Kevin Dale]

Hi,

I'm having trouble with the TestSerial application from lesson 4 of
the TinyOS v 2 tutorial.  It appears that messages sent from the mote
over serial USB aren't being received by the host application.  Here's
the invocation and resulting output after 3 minutes or so:

$ java TestSerial -comm serial at COM3:telos
serial at COM3:115200: resynchronising
Sending packet 0
Sending packet 1
Sending packet 2
Sending packet 3
Sending packet 4
Sending packet 5
Sending packet 6

I have a Moteiv Telos (rev A) mote, and I'm running windows XP.  And
I've had no problems running the demo applications in the first 3
lessons of the tutorial.  Is it possible that the FTDI drivers are not
installed correctly, or that something is missing from my
javax.comm.properties file?  Or is the problem elsewhere?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Best,

Kevin
