CC2530: Creating a mesh network

Part Number: CC2530
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: Z-STACK

Hello, I bought five CC2530 modules and a CC Debugger and I want to create a mesh network but I have no idea what do I need to get started. I mean, I dont know how to program the modules to transmit what I want. Ive read a lot about the software that I need like Z-Stack, IAR Embedded Workbench, Flash Programmer, Z-Tool, etc, but I dont know exactly what are they for.

I would like you to tell me what do I need from creating a code to program them to the tools I need to flash them, etc.

Ps. I just want to transmit data in a mesh network. I dont need to use the module peripherals (ADC, I/O ports, comparators, etc.)

  • I would suggest you to download/install Z-Stack 3.0.2 and IAR EW8051 10.20.1. Then, go to Z-Stack Documents folder and find Z-Stack 3.0 Developer's Guide.pdf and Z-Stack 3.0 Sample Application User's Guide.pdf to read them first. Try to follow the guide in Z-Stack 3.0 Sample Application User's Guide.pdf to test SampleLight/SampleSwitch examples first and come back to ask if you have any specific or solid question.
