By default all nodes (except coordinators) are set up to check once every
minute whether any neighbours on the same PAN are present, or whether they
are orphaned. If no neighbours have been found after a couple of minutes, the
unit will leave the (deserted) PAN and try to join into a new one once every
minute.
This initial network setup can take a few minutes, especially with no serial
access to remote nodes, but once the network is set up it will remain set even
after power cycles.
New nodes joining will cause a prompt ‘NEWNODE: <EUI64>’
side, where <EUI64> is the unique 64-bit identifier of the device joining in, and
display the JPAN message locally as described above.
To learn more about setting up and maintaining a PAN please refer to the AT
Command Dictionary.
4 Configuring Buttons for your set-up
After setting up the network, press the button labelled ‘Configure’ which will
issue a command to scan the network causing all the nodes in the network to
report in. You will see that on discovery of a remote device its serial number is
added to the device list window. In addition to this, the configure functionality
will build additional buttons to play a tune on a remote board (‘Ident Node x’).
By looking at the actual commands behind these new buttons it is quite easy to
understand how the AT-Command interface operates. Also you can easily
discover the principle of mesh networking: simply move a Development Board
out of range and then add a Development Board between the local node and
the one which is out of range and you will find that the network has healed the
broken link and all three nodes are accessible again.
With a Development Board and a USB stick you can send messages between
two PCs using the Broadcast or Unicast buttons and by experimenting with
those buttons you will quickly get an understanding on how to integrate the
ETRX357 into your application.
The Telegesis Terminal Application also allows you to create custom command
buttons for your individual application, just click on Commands / Add
command button…
