CCS/CC1310: Which collector is chosen by the sensor during association

Part Number: CC1310

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hey guys,

in the sensor/collector non beacon 15.4stack example. If the sensor is sending a beacon request, and there are two or more collectors, they will all answer with a beacon. Is the sensor now associating with the first beacon it receives or is it evaluating which of the beacons has the best RSSI value and based on this connects with this collector?

kind regards

  • Hello,

    There should not be 2 collectors at the same channel since the collector should not be bale to initialize in the same channel as another one since it listens for an open channel before it actually starts the channel. If you purposely have two collectors in the same channel (it is also possible) the sensor will go with the first collector that responds to the beacon request, since the sensor has no knowledge of the other one. 

    You can add additional logic to do what you want to do, it is possible. 

    Regards,

  • One further thing I am trying to do. How can I prevent a collector from responding to a beacon request?

    I dont want the collector to respond to a sensor if it is full, but where in the code should I do this?
