CC2650DK: 6LoWPAN Edge/Border Router

What is your question?

Sorry, I forgot to include the question. Here is the point:

"but I do not have CC2531 USB Dongle and I have both BeagleBone Black and Raspberry Pi 3.

So, I need help in implementing 6LoWPAN edge router with CC2650DK (and BBB and RPi3 if needed). "

Thanks for the answer.

Regarding the written steps there, at which path are they? Is it this: "6lbr-develop\examples\ipv6\slip-radio"?

It's in Contiki source code not 6lbr.

One more question, I moved to this path: "contiki/examples/ipv6/slip-radio"

Then I executed this command: "make TARGET=srf06-cc26xx BOARD=srf06/cc26xx slip-radio.bin"
and this is the result: "make: *** No rule to make target 'slip-radio.bin'. Stop."

Best regards.

What environment do you build slip radio? Do you use InstantContiki?

On Raspberry Pi 3. OS: RASPBIAN JESSIE.

You should download and run InstantContiki in VM Player to build Contiki related things.

I am doing the compilation in instantcontiki, and in contiki folder.

I executed the command: "make TARGET=srf06-cc26xx BOARD=srf06/cc26xx slip-radio.bin"

First, this error came

Then, I copied board.h to slip-radio folder, and gave me this error

I suspect you don't git Contiki source code correctly. Do you use "git clone --recursive github.com/.../contiki" to git Contiki source code?

Yes, I am navigating to the folder in the Instantcontiki which is: "contiki/examples/ipv6/slip-radio"

Now, I will git the source again and try

Yes, please git the source code to test again.

Sorry for replying late.

I cloned the repository and it worked.

I did all steps but still the webpage did not start ([bbbb::100]).

I have a question, should I do configurations in /examples/ipv6/slip-radio/project-conf.h as this example sunmaysky.blogspot.tw/.../contiki-subg-hz-6lowpan-on-cc1350.html or the the configurations are correct and work with SmartRF06 Evaulation Board + CC2650EM-7Id?

Best regards.

Since you use CC2650EM-SmartRF06, you can refer to sunmaysky.blogspot.tw/.../how-to-build-contiki-6lbr-slip-radio-on.html

I changed my RPi to RPi 2.
Regarding "RaspberryPi Software Configuration" in github.com/.../RaspberryPi-Software-Configuration. Should I do all steps or some of them? Note: I am using FT232.

Also, is there specific configuration for FT232?

Best regards

I suppose you should do all steps.

I did all steps many times and still the web did not open!

Now, I am doing troubleshooting, I have 2 questions:

1. what is the RPi version that you used ? RPi 2 or 3?
2. What is the operating system name and version that you used?

1. I use RPi 2.

2. It's 2015-05-05-raspbian-wheezy

1. In "Specific Configuration for USB Slip-Radio motes" part in this link (github.com/.../RaspberryPi-Software-Configuration), the configuration is:

dwc_otg.speed=1 dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 console=serial0,115200 console=tty1 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline fsck.repair=yes rootwait quiet splash plymouth.ignore-serial-consoles

Should I remove "console=serial0,115200 console=tty1" ? or keep them?

2. Also, I did not find " /etc/inittab" file, so where can I find that file?

I am using latest eddition of Raspian.

Best regards.

When I test this on My RPi 2, I follow the steps in sub-1GHz RF Interface in processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Cc26xx_sw_examples . I suggest you to do the same steps.

I did all steps in Sub-1 GhZ for slip radio, and nothing worked!

This is the log file

Any comment?

If you connect CC2650DK to a windows desktop and use teraterm to open the virtual COM port, do you see anything output on teraterm?

No, I do not see anything.

The 6lbr.ip file was not created even!

What's baudrate do you use on teraterm?

These are the settings

If your slip-radio works well on CC2650DK, you should see the following outputs.

I conected both CC2650DK and FT232 to my laptop, I opened TeraTerm and NOTHING appeared on screen.
Does the problem in slip-radio? How to solve it?

Try to use my slip-radio for CC2650DK.

slip-radio-cc2650DK.zip

Nothing changed.
As I said before, I connected both CC2650DK and FT232 to the USB ports in my PC. Is it worng? which one of them should I see?

Just connect CC2650DK to USB port.

Nothing changed.
When I connected the board, the 4 LEDs blinked respectively.
Note: baudrate was set to 115200.

Now we concluded that the problem in the slip radio. How to solve it?

I had tested the binary I attached and see UART output on my teraterm. Can you take a picture on your CC2650DK to show me your connection to desktop.

I connected to my PC. Initially, it did not work, so I press RESET button and worked. Below is the output

Then, I connected to RPi and pressed RESET button, and that what appeared on TeraTerm

This is 6lbr.err

This is 6lbr.log

It looks like slip radio works now. When you connect CC2650DK to your Raspberry Pi, does it emulate ttyUSB0?

Based on 6lbr.log it is working, here is the picture

Can you see 6lbr web page by input URL http:[bbbb::100] in FireFox browser?

This is the output 

I tried to ping6 inet6 addr.

Note: I sucessfully pinged my RPI IPV6 from my PC.

What do you mean you sucessfully pinged my RPI IPV6 from PC?

This is IPV6 of RPI2: fe80::51ba:dd9d:b712:8b15

Try to disable IPv6 on Raspberry Pi and test again.

I did it, nothing is working.

Do you try to do the test with 2015-05-05-raspbian-wheezy running on your Raspberry Pi?

No, I am downloading it. The internet here is slow.

Could you suggest other solutions?

I don't know where the problem is so don't have solution.

I still did not try the version, I will do it after 2 hours.

Anyway, this is my analysis:
1. CC2650DK as Slip-radio: is working
2. FT232: not sure if it is working or not, but when I execute this command "lsusb" it appears as "Future Technology.... ID: 403:6001.
3. Raspberry Pi 2: webpage does not work, I will test your image later.

So, now how can I test FT232?

You can refer to the steps in sunmaysky.blogspot.tw/.../contiki-subg-hz-6lowpan-on-cc1350.html which uses FT232.

I think the problem is in IPV6, I tried to ping6 ipv6.google.com and other addresses, and gave me : "connect: Network is unreachable"

Also, fro RPi I pinged my IPV6 on RPI (ping6 fe80::51ba:dd9d:b712:8b15) and gave me: "connect: Invalid argument"


How can I configure it to work properly.

Note: I am using 2015-05-05-raspbian-wheezy

Can you attach 6lbr.log?
