Give an adress mc13213

Nicolas_martel — Tue, 16 Dec 2008 20:37:17 GMT

Hello,

I try to communicate between 1 ncb(coordinator) and 1 srb(router). I want to use direct adress (16bits) for that.

I define that in beekit :

#define for property: mDefaultNwkShortAddress_c => 0x1111 for the ncb.

and that

#define for property: mDefaultNwkShortAddress_c =>0x2222 for the srb.

I write that in codewarrior (ncb):

adress[0] = 0x22;

adress[1] = 0x22;

/* set up address information */
addrInfo.dstAddrMode = gZbAddrMode16Bit_c;
Copy2Bytes(addrInfo.dstAddr.aNwkAddr, adress);

addrInfo.dstEndPoint = 0x02;
addrInfo.srcEndPoint = 0x02;
addrInfo.txOptions = gApsTxOptionNone_c;
addrInfo.radiusCounter = afDefaultRadius_c;

/* set up cluster */
Copy2Bytes(addrInfo.aClusterId, appDataCluster);

Why It don't work, I don't receive data in the srb.

Do you help me please?

Nicolas

Is it possible to send direct data from a coordinator to a router (coordinator --> router) with short adressing mode?
If yes, how do I configure the end-device?

Hi _Nicolas,

There is not really something called a router in 802.15.4. there is coordinators(Full function devices) and end devices(Reduced function devices) So a router is a Coordinator

So in order to setup two FFD devices you just need to do what the coordinator application examples does, setup the destination address and make sure the Indirect option is not set:

mpPacket->msgData.dataReq.txOptions = gTxOptsAck_c | gTxOptsIndirect_c;

(remove the gTxOptsIndirect_c)

BR,
