ez430-rf2500 SimpliciTI Simple Peer-to-Peer sample application not working

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SIMPLICITI, CC430F5137

Hi, I'm using SimpliciTI with CCSv4 on ez430-rf2500. I tried running the Simple Peer-to-Peer sample following the instructions in SimpliciTI Sample Application User's Guide, but it didn't work. Are the talker (LinkTo) and listener (LinkListen) supposed to have the same or different addresses? I tried setting both addresses to {0x78, 0x56, 0x34, 0x12}, then one with {0x78, 0x56, 0x34, 0x12} and the other with {0x87, 0x56, 0x34, 0x12} and vice versa but it still doesn't work. I push the button on the listener, then I push it on the talker, but then the talker's LEDs just keep blinking.

  • Hi,

    Did you manage to solve this problem in the end? I'm having the same issue.

    Thanks.

  • What issues are you running into?  What is observed on the LEDs when you run the application on the 2 devices?

    The Simple-Peer-To-Peer example is actually featured in the documentation found in the SimpliciTI installation directory at <SIMPLICITI_INSTALL_DIR>\Documents\SimpliciTI Sample Application User's Guide.pdf in terms of the step by step instructions of importing the example into Code Composer Studio in Section 2.3.2.

    There are 2 things you need to ensure.  1) Both devices MUST have an unique address.  2) One of the devices needs to be programmed with the LinkTo Project configuration and the other device needs to be programmed with the LinkListen project configuration.

    I have just gone through these steps and the application is working as advertised.  The steps once the devices are running the program are detailed in Section 3.1.

  • Thanks for your reply. Since I posted I changed the ID more (I'm sure I did change at least one digit before), rebuilt and then it worked.

    But again thanks for you interest.

     

  • Hey Sidelil,

     

    To what have you changed the address, please could you please post it. I tried a lot and it didn't work.

     

    regards,

    I have the same problem with you and I cannot find what is wrong with the codes.

    I am using the CC430F5137 and CCS v5.3.
