Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2538, CC2530, Z-STACK

My coordinator, cc2538, is not able to start the zigbee network. I can see on ubiqua that there are no packets of link status with 0x0000 address.

And when I power on end devices, no device join network happens.

What can be the possible issues?

What’s your device?

cc2538 as coordinator, sample switch

0 YiKai Chen over 8 years ago in reply to Akhi G

Guru 735695 points

I see no problem on your coordinator according to your sniffer log. I am asking what Zigbee end device that you try to join CC2538 coordinator.

I am trying to connect cc2530, sample light configured as router.

Can you tell me what portion of stack handles this functionality?

0 YiKai Chen over 8 years ago in reply to Akhi G

Guru 735695 points

It's ZDApp_NwkDescListProcessing in ZDApp.c.

0 Akhi G over 8 years ago in reply to YiKai Chen

Genius 3410 points

Ok. How can you say that my sniffer log is all correct?
But there should be some association, acknowledgement, joining packets. But i can't see any of these. Also, when I am trying to send end device bind req, it also can't be seen in the log

0 YiKai Chen over 8 years ago in reply to Akhi G

Guru 735695 points

I see the beacon frame of coordinator enables permit joins and there is router and end device capacity so I said there is no problem on your coordinator. There problem is that why your router doesn't send association request to move forward.

Genius 3410 points

Many a times, I have seen that my router sends end device bind req to coordinator. The coordinator accepts it and send response. But after it, the beacons of transport key, etc starts seeing. And when I again sends req, it sends route req instead of bind req. Why ?

Guru 735695 points

Can you attach sniffer log to show me your descriptions?

0 Akhi G over 8 years ago in reply to YiKai Chen

Genius 3410 points

Can you suggest me which of these compiler options should be enabled by default on coordinator side, sample switch cc2538.
I am binding the end devices and coordinator using end device bind req. And, binding table is getting maintained by default.

MT_ZDO_CB_FUNC
MT_SYS_KEY_MANAGEMENT
ZDO_API_BASIC
MT_ZDO_CB_FUNC
INCLUDE_REVISION_INFORMATION

0 YiKai Chen over 8 years ago in reply to Akhi G

Guru 735695 points

You don't have to define anything to enable end device binding. It is supported by default.

0 Akhi G over 8 years ago in reply to Akhi G

Genius 3410 points

ZTOOL_P1
MT_TASK
MT_APP_FUNC
MT_SYS_FUNC
MT_ZDO_FUNC
Do these compiler flags have any impact upon binding if enabled or disabled?

0 YiKai Chen over 8 years ago in reply to Akhi G

Guru 735695 points

No, I don't see any impact.

0 Akhi G over 8 years ago in reply to YiKai Chen

Genius 3410 points

Then why are the defined in compiler option? For which functionality?

0 YiKai Chen over 8 years ago in reply to Akhi G

Guru 735695 points

They are defined if your use those MT related functions.

0 Akhi G over 8 years ago in reply to YiKai Chen

Genius 3410 points

captures8.rarDo MT related functions have any relation with sending these network association req, end device bind req, binding table, device announce.

I am attaching the new log.

First I powered on coordinator, after some time, end device, and then I powered off the end device.

0 YiKai Chen over 8 years ago in reply to Akhi G

Guru 735695 points

There is only beacon requests on your sniffer log which means there is no coordinator nearby.

0 Akhi G over 8 years ago in reply to YiKai Chen

Genius 3410 points

There is coordinaotr, Link Status if of coordinator. 0x0000 source address.

0 YiKai Chen over 8 years ago in reply to Akhi G

Guru 735695 points

I see it but this one deosn't respond to your device beacon requests and I don't know why.

0 Akhi G over 8 years ago in reply to YiKai Chen

Genius 3410 points

From where in the code, it receives these beacons and responds?

0 YiKai Chen over 8 years ago in reply to Akhi G

Guru 735695 points

It's in Z-Stack Library and application programmer.

0 Akhi G over 8 years ago in reply to YiKai Chen

Genius 3410 points

can you tell me file name and function name?

0 Akhi G over 8 years ago in reply to YiKai Chen

Genius 3410 points

So the problem is in the coordinator??

0 YiKai Chen over 8 years ago in reply to Akhi G

Guru 735695 points

There is no file name or function name available for application programmer. Yes, the problem is on coordinator according to your latest sniffer. Do you change anything in Z-Stack when you test this with your coordinator?

0 Akhi G over 8 years ago in reply to YiKai Chen

Genius 3410 points

Can you check this log?

It is sending route request instead of end device bind req.captures9.rar

0 YiKai Chen over 8 years ago in reply to Akhi G

Guru 735695 points

The route request is for 0x30FD which is not joined coordinator correctly and I see there is nothing to do with end device bind req.

0 Akhi G over 8 years ago in reply to YiKai Chen

Genius 3410 points

Why does the route req is sent? I am not sending it. I am just sending end device bind req to the coordinator from the router.

0 YiKai Chen over 8 years ago in reply to Akhi G

Guru 735695 points

If there’s any message want to be sent and there is no routing path for the node, it will send route request to find the node.

0 Akhi G over 8 years ago in reply to YiKai Chen

Genius 3410 points

It means my coordinator is able to detect any router or end device' beacons??

0 YiKai Chen over 8 years ago in reply to Akhi G

Guru 735695 points

I couldn’t understand your question. If you test default example from Z-Stack, do you still see this issue?

0 Akhi G over 8 years ago in reply to YiKai Chen

Genius 3410 points

No, default zstack is working correct. In my coordinator code, cc2538, sample switch, there is some issue.

Actually, in compiler options, mt_zdo_fun and others were disabled by us. But when I enabled them again, the behaviour is this

0 YiKai Chen over 8 years ago in reply to Akhi G

Guru 735695 points

So, what modifications do you do to your coordinator?

0 Akhi G over 8 years ago in reply to YiKai Chen

Genius 3410 points

2376.captures10.rarEverything is working fine now. Problem wa in hardware.

When I am sending zdo mngmnt bind req from ztool, in response I am getting Not supported.

Can you check log?

0 YiKai Chen over 8 years ago in reply to Akhi G

Guru 735695 points

Your source endpoint and destination endpoint are 0 in sniffer log. You should use correct source endpoint and destination endpoint. Also, you don't give cluster ID that you want to do binding.

0 Akhi G over 8 years ago in reply to YiKai Chen

Genius 3410 points

Thankyou, I also did not enable compiler flags.
