RTOS/CC1350: Overrides for CC1350 GHS radio mode

Hi TER,

thanks, I did try that and it crashes on transmit with a non-null packet pointer. It seems to work without overrides but I've not tested it and suspect the performance will be poor. I was planning to try a selection of 1310 overrides, if you could give me an indication of how the chips differ I might be able to work it out.

best,

James

The overrides should be the same for CC1310 and CC1350 meaning that the error you see is most likely not related to the overrides directly.

Could you post the part of the code where you get a crash and the definitions of the variables used in this code. In addition you state that it crash, what is the error message or similar that tells you that it has crashed?

Hi,

sorry for the delay in getting back! This code should illustrate the minimum case in which it does not work as expected. In smartrf_settings.c:

// TI-RTOS RF Mode Object

.cpePatchFxn = &rf_patch_cpe_ghs,

.rfePatchFxn = &rf_patch_rfe_ghs,
};

and in a task:

RF_Params rfParams;
RF_Params_init(&rfParams);

rfHandle = RF_open(&rfObject, &RF_prop, (RF_RadioSetup*)&RF_cmdPropRadioDivSetup, &rfParams);
RF_runCmd(rfHandle, (RF_Op*)&RF_cmdFs, RF_PriorityNormal, NULL, 0);

ratmr_t time;
time = RF_getCurrentTime();


size_t i;
RF_EventMask ret;
for (i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
RF_cmdPropTx_Ping.startTime = time + 1000000;
ret = RF_runCmd(rfHandle, (rfc_radioOp_t*)&RF_cmdPropTx_Ping, RF_PriorityNormal, NULL, 0); // &callback, 0xFFFFFFFF);

PIN_setOutputValue(ledPinHandle, Board_PIN_LED0, !PIN_getOutputValue(Board_PIN_LED0));


}



the LED doesn't come on at all, if using the callback from runCmd the value of the eventmask is 0x10000000, which isn't defined.

It could be a very silly mistake, sometimes very similar configurations work. We are using latest TI-RTOS from an example. Many thanks!!
