Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2538

Hi all,

I am working on CC2538 end device.

/*******This is given in f8wconfig.cfg file for pre processing*******/

-DRFD_RCVC_ALWAYS_ON=FALSE

/*******************************************************************/

/**********This is given in stack part********************************/

void ZDConfig_UpdatePowerDescriptor( void )
{

if ( ZSTACK_END_DEVICE_BUILD )
{
if ( zgPollRate )
ZDO_Config_Power_Descriptor.PowerMode = NODECURPWR_RCVR_AUTO;
else
ZDO_Config_Power_Descriptor.PowerMode = NODECURPWR_RCVR_STIM;

ZDO_Config_Power_Descriptor.AvailablePowerSources = NODEAVAILPWR_RECHARGE;
ZDO_Config_Power_Descriptor.CurrentPowerSource = NODEAVAILPWR_RECHARGE;
ZDO_Config_Power_Descriptor.CurrentPowerSourceLevel = NODEPOWER_LEVEL_66;
}

/*********************************************************************************/

so please tell me that RFD_RCVC_ALWAYS_ON(used in f8wconfig.cfg) and NODECURPWR_RCVR_AUTO(used in stack) are same or different.

or how they are related

Thanks

You can refer to section 2.3.2.4.1 Current Power Mode Field in home.deib.polimi.it/.../ZigBeeSpec.pdf.

Hi Y.Chen,

How to make the receiver continuously on during run time .

I tried the following lines.But it is not working
1. ZDO_Config_Power_Descriptor.PowerMode= NODEPWR_CONTINIOUS;
2. ZMacSetReq( ZMacRxOnIdle, &RxOnIdle );

As per your suggestion i have gone through the pdf you sent previously but in that they have only given the details of node descriptor.They are not describing whether it will make the receiver continuously on or not.

Thanks

To make receiver always on, you should set -DRFD_RCVC_ALWAYS_ON=TRUE in f8wconfig.cfg.

As I know, you can not do it in application.

What is not working?

Hi Y.Chen,

Actually i am implementing match descriptor binding which requires receiver continiously on .So i want to change the receiver settings during runtime. I tried using NLME_SetPollRate(10) so that receiver comes up every 10msec .But not worked.

Thanks

If you set device to RX always on, can it receive Match request?

0 AMIT KUMAR13 over 10 years ago in reply to YiKai Chen

Hi Y.Chen,

Yes,If i set the RX always on it can receive the match request.

Thanks

Try to use NLME_SetPollRate(100) but there is no guarantee for ZED to receive broadcast messages.
