can cc2531/2230 communicate with 2520+MSP430 using simple Zstack.

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2530, CC2531, Z-STACK, CC2520

Can I use same Zstack for both cc2531/2530 and cc2520+msp430 , to make cc2531 as cordinator and 2520 as end device cluster.

 will they communicate since I have read that cc2530/31 works with zigbee pro and more.

 so my doubt is will they communicate and configured. please help me in this matter.

I am using 2531 on Pi board and msp+2520 as end device

  • As I know, latest Z-Stack doesn't support MSP430+CC2520 so I don't think it's a good idea to use MSP430+CC2520 for Zigbee device. CC2530 or CC2531 would be fine.
    • Thanks for quick reply but we are already made our deliverable via MsP430 .

      I have another doubt. We tries what we asked to you and its working fine.

      till now what we did...
      1. we configure zstack 2.5.1.a -> zstack-> generic app  -> configured as cordinator -> generate hex file for cc2530.
      2. same step 1 we did for cc2531 but as end device.
      3. both communicated well.
      4. using zstack 2.5.1 configure ( msp430+cc2520) as end device and tried we device 1 and 2 . till hello world sharing worked between cc2520+msp430 and cc2530 as cordinator . also 2531 as cordinator and cc2520+msp430.

      Now I what i want to develop is rf modem like application that is till now my generic app with cc2531 is not providing any uart/usb support to get that message display on terminal/comm port of the PC it is plugged. more clearly generic app won't give that interface instead it give only LCD. so to develop Rfmodem kind of sharing in step 4 (mentioned) we need inside of registers of cc2531. 

      Question/problem

      can we have any solution in any guide whose snippet code we take and it will work for us.
      since we are adding accelerometer sensors on cc2520+msp430 and making SOC 2531 as cordinator on PI board. our Msp part is over , we are focusing on their connection and then via usb-uart of cc2531 we will take data to the pc or pi board.

      I am working hard to dig the problem but thinking the flow , for this communication I require 
      fifo handing , packet handling , interrupt handling and moreover the example application are working with hardware and manual switches , we have to remove that also.

      so for now how can i just add the snippet code in generic app to get the uart data to pc via 2531 transmitted from 2520+msp+sensor.
