f8wcfg.cfg @ ZNP Mini IAR

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2530, Z-STACK

Hi,

How do I locate the f8wcfg.cfg file for ZNP Mini in IAR? COuldnt find, and hence put this query - though small. Thnx!!!

  • Hi,

    Under tools.

  • Hi Igor,

    First of all, thank you for the reply.

    Second: I have the following tree in IAR:

    I dont see anything called tools anywhere in that tree. I then downloaded ZStack and searched ZStack-CC2530-2.5.1a\Projects\zstack\ZNP\CC253x and searched for tools and saw some tools folder but couldnt locate the file - which was the reason I put the post since I was already told that it is under tools :D Sorry for this small time question, but I am not sure which tools, since there seems to be no tools in that tree - i went through each node and a new zstack download.

    Can you please let me know how to exactly get to f8wcfg.cfg so that I can trace the entire path - in case Iam missing something.

  • Ok, let's try to reproduce the steps I did to find f8wcfg.cfg.

    1. Opened IAR
    2. File->open->workspace
    3. Followed this path: 
      "C:\Program Files (x86)\Texas Instruments\ZStack-CC2530-2.5.0\Projects\zstack\ZNP\CC253x"
       and selected the "znp.eww" file.
    4. In workspace sub-window I chose CC2530-Debug (worked for CC2530 - prodHex too)
    5. Expanded the Tools folder. 


    You can also find this file by following this path:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Texas Instruments\ZStack-CC2530-2.5.0\Projects\zstack\Tools\CC2530DB
    (of course the installation path may be different but the Projects\zstack\Tools\CC2530DB remains
    the same)
  • Hi Igor,

    1.As seen in the snap attached, Iam using Simple Applcations.eww which has the path :

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Texas Instruments\CC2530 ZNP Mini Kit\ZNP examples\IAR\Simple Applications.eww"

    I am not sure how ZStack path which you have mentioned is involved in that - I checked for the file in the above path.

    2.I downloaded ZStack and tracked the znp.eww, double clicked on that for it to open (as mentioned in the steps) and strangely, nothing opens up in IAR!!!

    I understand that the problems for step 2 should be solved by me - if there are issues in that - but how do I fix scenario for 1 regarding Simple Applications.eww for znp mini, since that is what Iam working with.

    Neverthless, thanks for that precise explanation, appreciate that. Can you please check the simple Application.eww and let me know if you can find that file.

    Sorry, missed that one. Could you please point me to where I can download this

    project so I can investigate it a little further.

    Strange... what is the version of IAR you are using?

  • http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Tutorial_on_the_Examples >> download @ line 3.

    IAR 5.40.7, had downloaded last year, though Iam working with CC by translating some IAR codes to CC due to size limit. So, Iam not actually using IAR.

    Thanks a lot for your effort Igor!!!

  • Ok, now I got it, I thought you are working directly with CC devices, now I see that it's something else.

    The IAR version you have is not for 8051 like devices, therefore you can't open projects related to 

    Z-stack for CC253x (You need IAR v8.10 to open it).

    Now for the configuration file, I think that the example project from wiki, is the application side, which

    carries out commands to ZNP (CC253x) and getting info from ZNP device, so I think that it's not the

    right place to put ZigBee configuration file (which is after all used by IAR compiler to set several ZiGbee

    related constants during compilation).
