Example Application: Oscilloscope

  1. Node Configuration
  2. Code Generation
  3. Updating Makefile
  4. Build
  5. Run

 

  1. Node Configuration

#include "gen/cOscilloscope_TinyOSModule.h"
#include "gen/cOscilloscope_Main.h"

   cOscilloscope_Main *m = new cOscilloscope_Main(this,main,"Main",getIndex());
   m->StdControl_init();
   m->StdControl_start();
 
  1. Code Generation

NesCT is going to build all the classes in gen directory. Replace "cp" with "copy" and slash (/) with backslash (\) for windows operating system at the following instructions.



[root@sinan tictoc]# cd components/
[root@sinan components]# cp Oscilloscope.nc ../Application.nc
[root@sinan components]# cd ..
[root@sinan tictoc]# ./nesct.exe Application.nc

done.

  1. Updating Makefile

  Type makemake.bat/makemake.sh to create new Makefile for Win32/Linux.
  1. Build

Type "make" build the binary.


[root@sinan tictoc]# make
g++ -c -g -fpermissive -fPIC -DWITH_NETBUILDER -w -DTOSNODES=1000 -DLINUX -DPLATFORM_OMNETPP -I./include -I/root/projects/tinyos-1.x/tos/interfaces -I./include_tos -I/opt/omnetpp-3.2/include simstart.cc
g++ tictoc1_n.o debug.o simstart.o tinyos.o tinyosmain.o tossim.o txc1.o -g -L/opt/omnetpp-3.2/lib -lenvir -lcmdenv -lsim_std -lnedxml -lxml2 -ldl -lstdc++ -lpthread -o tictoc
echo>.tstamp

  1. Run

Edit omnetpp.ini file and change wait-for-sf to true. After enabling this option, the simulation will wait 10 seconds before starting to allow sf to connect.

Start SerialForwarder by running ./bin/sf_sim . For windows, you may need to enter the contents of the file yourself in a console windows (cygwin). The exceptions will be lost once we start the simulator.

[root@sinan tictoc]# ./bin/sf_sim
Listening to tossim-serial
SF enabled, 0 clients, 0 packets read, 0 packets written getenv JNI library not found. Env.getenv will not work
(please consult installation directions in
tinyos-1.x/tools/java/net/tinyos/util/Env.INSTALL)
Platform avrmote
Opening tossim-serial source
Connecting to Tossim event port at localhost:10585
Listening for client connections on port 9001
SF enabled, 0 clients, 0 packets read, 0 packets written java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused

Start Oscilloscope GUI from another window.
[root@sinan ~]# java net.tinyos.oscope.oscilloscope

 

A preferable run directory is bin for windows. Copy tictoc.exe to your bin directory and execute it to run the simulation. The simulation screen should like this.
 

[root@sinan tictoc]# cp tictoc ./bin
[root@sinan tictoc]# cd bin

Let's enable all debug options for demonstration purposes. Use "export" keyword for linux and "set" keyword for windows to change environment variable. You should see an output similar to this in TK window.

See the following output in Oscilloscope window.
