Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2531
I was originally using cc2531 dongle as a slip radio but I was running into stability issues so I wanted to switch to something that was currently present in the repo and supported. However in switching to the srf06-2650 I'm running into a problem. It seems to recognize the device is on /dev/ttyUSB0 but isn't able to actually communicate.
6lbr doesn't advance past "INFO: BR-RDC: Fetching MAC address"
Set-up info:
BBB running debian for 6lbr
srf06-2650EM used for slip radio
ft232 usb-serial connection between
