Hello, I am new to hardware programming and wanted to try out ZigBee and DASH-7 protocols so that I can learn more. Following are the details of the hardware and the software I have:
HARDWARE:
CC430 Wireless Development Tool ( EM430F6137RF900 )
MSP430 USB Debugging Interface ( MSP-FET430UIF )
SOFTWARE:
Code Composer Studio v4 Core Edition
IAR Embedded Workbench (Kickstart) 5.4
SmartRF Studio 7
SimpliciTI (what is it used for? I am still unclear.)
The ZigBee software stack:
From SourceForge.com: http://freaklabs.org/index.php/FreakZ-Open-Source-Zigbee-Stack.html
OpenTag software stack:
http://www.dash7.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=130&Itemid=193
My project is to use one of these stacks at a time and send some data from one module to another (there are two of them). My questions are:
1. What files do I need to implement a simple Rx-Tx system using one of these protocols?? [radio, commands]
2. How do I actually send data from Tx to Rx? I mean, do I need to interface any additional peripherals like a keyboard or something?
I am sorry if my questions seem very basic. I am completely new to this. Any help will be VERY much appreciated.
Thanks!
