Other Parts Discussed in Thread: Z-STACK, CC2520, MSP430F5437A

In the Z-Stack User's Guide-CC2520 (SWRU165) I read:

"Every ZigBee device requires a unique 64-bit IEEE Address. Z-Stack uses the following three-level hierarchy to determine the IEEE address."

1.- Read from Z-Stack NV memory.

2.-Look-up from MSP430

3.-Create a "temporary" using random number generation

How can I select it?

Dears,

It is the easiest way to choose reading IEEE address from NV.

Hi friends,
In MSP430F5437A+CC2520 experimental board, how to find the MAC address of the device?

It gives 0D:10:58:D6:08:A5:00:00, when power on.
It will changed to 52:D6:01:00:08:A5:00:00 when reset the board. (it keeps this same value until power off)

Hi KEERTHI,

You have to look for zmain_ext_addr() function in Zmain.c file.

Then, you'll see how the MAC Address is generated:

1.- Read from Z-Stack NV memory.

2.-Look-up from MSP430

3.-Create a "temporary" using random number generation
