[Tinyos-help] ACK query

Hi,

   A newb question: ACKs are on by default in TOSSIM, assuming the radio
stack is the default(TR 1000). So to check if an ACK was received or not, I
check the msg->ack field in the event sendDone(). Now my query is, is it the
sendDone() event of the SendMsg or Send interface. This is because in the
definition of the Send interface, the sendDone() event is always supposed to
return SUCCESS.
   As far as MICAz motes are concerned, I wanted to know how I could enable
MDMCTRL0.auto_ack along with adr_decode and autocrc. Is it possible through
the SmartRF Studio Interface? Also what is the difference between doing this
as compared to using MacControl.enableAck() in terms of reliability,etc?


Thanks and regards,
Bharat.
