How to debug cc2650 using CCS?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2531, CC2650, CC2531EMK, LAUNCHXL-CC2650, CC2538

I'm running web demo on cc2650, and running 6lbr on linux host and cc2531 as slip radio.

I'm not sure if my cc2650 is sending packets. Is there any way I can make sure that I'm receiving packets via cc2531 usb dongle?

You can setup sniffer to check it. Please refer to sunmaysky.blogspot.tw/.../how-to-setup-contiki-sniffer-for.html

This was my backup plan.
But there is no way I can debug using CCS?

No, there's no Contiki CCS project available for now.

Hey,
I tried this steps as mentioned in the blog () , but cc2531 usb dongle is not coming as /dev/tty.usbmodem1421
instead it is coming as ttyACM0.

I don't know why it enumerated CC2531EMK as ttyACM0. Can you download Contiki_Sniffer_CC2531EMK.hex to your CC2531EMK to test again?

I did. No change.

Run out of idea why it doesn't be enumerated correctly. Do you have LAUNCHXL-CC2650 or CC2538DK to act as sniffer?

I'm using cc2531 usb dongle to act as sniffer.

Have you tried it?
Are you getting it enumerated as required?

Guru 735695 points

Of course I did it. SunMaySky blog is written by me.

Wow! great.
so is there a solution to my problem?

Guru 735695 points

I don't know why your CC2531EMK doesn't work so I suggest you to use CC2650 or CC2538 as sniffer. Do you have LAUNCHXL-CC2650 or CC2538DK.
