EZ430-RF2500 dev kit - ED won't connect to AP

Nicolae Costescu

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SIMPLICITI

I bought the dev kit w/the 2 boards. Out of the box, only the AP would report it's temp. I reflashed w/the images I found on some FAQ, still no good. I could swap roles of the boards, same results. I built the example in Code Composer, and was able to debug the AP and the ED, and the ED just never joins. It doesn't matter which board is the ED, the system doesn't work. I always get temp from the AP, and the ED never joins. Any ideas are welcome.

Thanks

The usual issue is that one often forgets to ensure the address for both the AP and ED are unique. This should be found in one of the configuration files that are parsed by the project which are used as pre-compile flags (#define).

What is the software that you are using? Have you downloaded the latest SimpliciTI software from its product folder?

Or are you using the Wireless Sensor Demo from the eZ430-RF2500 product folder?

Thanks for replying, I got the boards out one more time and it just started working with no changes made by me, I have no idea why. Range is very limited, maybe 10 meters, but at least it's working now.

Thanks
