TeCo Particle Router Core (XBridge) sensor node. More...

TeCo Particle Router Core (XBridge) sensor node.

The rcore_xbridge driver controls the TeCo Particle Router Core sensor node, using the XBridge. The SSimp Full board is supported.

Compile-time dependencies

• none

Provides

• wsn

Requires

• none

Configuration requests

• PLAYER_WSN_REQ_POWER (to be implemented)
• PLAYER_WSN_REQ_DATATYPE
• PLAYER_WSN_REQ_DATAFREQ (to be implemented)

Configuration file options

• port (integer)
  • Default: 5555
  • TCP port to which the XBridge data gets broadcasted.
• node (integer tupple)
  • These are the calibration values for -1G/+1G for the ADXL210 accelerometer sensor (see the appropriate data sheet on how to obtain it). Each sepparate board MUST be calibrated! Only usable when requesting data in converted metric units mode.
  • The tuple means: [node_id group_id calibration_negative_1g_x_axis calibration_positive_1g_x_axis calibration_negative_1g_y_axis calibration_positive_1g_y_axis calibration_negative_1g_z_axis calibration_positive_1g_z_axis ]
• converted (integer)
  • Default: 1. Possible values: 0, 1, 2. (0=RAW, 1=m/s^2, 2=G)
  • Fill the data buffer with converted engineering units (1,2) or RAW (0) values.
• readppacket (integer)
  • Default: 8.
  • How many readings does the Particle send in one packet? (using multiple readings per packet, will increase the sample rate). Note: Use 0 as a special value for enabling the standard TeCo SSIMP mode (multiple tuples).

Example

driver
(
  name "rcore_xbridge"
  provides ["wsn:0"]
  port 5555
  # Calibrate node 0 from group 125 (default) with X={419,532} and Y={440,552}
  node [0 125 419 532 440 552 0 0]
  # Calibrate node 2 from group 125 (default) with X={447,557} and Y={410,520}
  node [2 125 447 557 410 520 0 0]
  # Use converted engineering units (G)
  converted 2
