WSN Training: MoteWorks Installation 2 February 2007

Installing MoteWorksInsert MoteWorks CDROM into PC and have your license key

ready

Double click on MoteWorks_2.0.D.exe

Accept the License agreement and enter your MoteWorks

license key.

Choose “Full Installation,” check all boxes and then

“Next.”

Accept installation of all utilities and extras (Programmer’s

Notepad, TortoiseCVS, PuTTY, WinMerge, etc.)

Notes1. MoteWorks Installer will

upgrade your existing Cygwin installation prior to installing the various MoteWorks packages

2. You must be the original root user to add or remove old Cygwin and other TinyOS RPM packages.

3. Log on with administrator privileges

4. Time to complete: 30 minutes for most Pentium III and faster systems

5. Do not restart until total installation is complete

MIB510 Usage and Programming Notes

Connect to PC using a straight-through DB9 male to DB9 female serial cable

For PCs without a serial port to a USB-to-Serial converter Recommended manufacturer: Keyspan If this is you, install the USB-to-serial driver now

Notes USB to serial converters are dependent on PC model and

Windows operating system Some USB to DB9 serial port adapters cannot run at 115

kbaud If you MIB510 seems to work intermittently, remove and

reinsert the USB-to-serial cable from your PC



USB drivers The drivers (from FTDI) are in the WSN Training CD under

/MIB520_Utilities MIB520 users: Install the drivers now

The MIB520 USB drivers creates two sequentially numbered virtual COM ports COM<#> is for programming and downloading code in the Mote COM<#+1> is for PC to MIB520 data communications such as

when running MoteView Write the two COM ports assigned by your system: _____ and _____.

Note: Cygwin does not accept COM port numbers greater than 16 If any COM port is 17 or higher, use the FTClean in the WSN

Training CD under /MIB520_Utilities/FTClean



Two ways to interface to the MIB600 Over a LAN with a standard Ethernet cable Direction connection to your PC with a cross-over

Ethernet cable

Use the Lantronix’s DeviceInstaller to determine and/or configure the MIB600s IP address

A label with the unit’s MAC address is on the MIB600 board

Install Lantronix’s DeviceInstaller in MoteWorks CDROM under /Misc/Lantronix Device Installer

MIB600 Users: Use the DeviceInstaller now to determine your IP Address

Write your MIB600s IP Address here: _______________________


Compile and Installing Firmware to a MoteObjectives:

Build (“compile”) and install your first MoteWorks application

Verify your MoteWorks compiler tools and programming environment

A first look at the hardware

If you have not installed in the default destination and drive, please see the last slide in this presentation

If you have not installed in the default destination and drive, please see the last slide in this presentation


Lab – Materials Needed

1. Mote (“MPR4x0” or “MPR2400”) One MICA2, MICAz with batteries installed

2. Mote Interface Board (“MIB”) One of MIB510, MIB520, or MIB600 All associated cabling for data and power IP or COM port settings determined Appropriate drivers installed (if needed)

3. Your PC with MoteWorks installed


Lab 1: Step 1—Setup Gateway and Mote

Connect your MIB to your PC with the appropriate cabling. Check that the MIB is powered.

Attach a MICA2 or MICAz to the MIB’s 51-pin connector• If the MIB510 is powered, switch the MICA’s power

switch to off• If using a MIB520, power is supplied from PC USB port. • Make sure that the red PWR LED is on and green PWR

LED is not blinking.


Step 1a -- Attaching Mote to MIB510 Board

Turn Mote’s power switch to OFF it is has batteries

Cables• Power • Wired Comms


Step 1b -- Attaching Mote to MIB520 Board

Connect the MIB520 to a USB portInstall the MICA2 (or MICAz) Mote on the MIB520

Set the Mote power switch to OFF if the Mote has batteries

MICAz Mote

USB cable – power and communication


Step 1c -- Attaching Mote to MIB600 Board

Connect the MIB600 to an Ethernet hub or crossover cable Determine/set the IP address with Lantronix’s DeviceInstaller

Power the MIB with the 5 V power supply Set the Mote power switch to OFF if the Mote has batteries Set the POE switch on the MIB to the “5V” position

Install a MICA2 (or MICAz) Mote on the MIB600

MICAz Mote

Ethernet cable to LAN or hub

5 VDC wall power supply (POE switch to “5V”)


Lab 1: Step 2 -- Compile

Open Cygwin windowNavigate to the Blink directory by typing

cd /opt/MoteWorks/apps/general/Blink


Lab: Step 3 -- Install Firmware into a Mote

Flash your Mote make command via Cygwin:

make <platform> re|install,<n> <programmer>,<com# or IP_Addr>

mica2, ormicaz, ormica2dot

mib510, ormib520, oreprb (=mib600)

,COM# where # = COM port where your MIB510 is attached or the lower of the two virtual COM ports assigned by the MIB520 USB driver

What should you see? Check that the red LED on the Mote is blinking about once per second. That’s it!

If you’ve already compile the code then use reinstall to save time

The “,<n>” says, “make this node’s address be n.”

,IP_Addr as determined or assigned by using the Lantronix’s DeviceInstaller software
