A new search field will appear "Texas Instruments XDS110 USB Debug Probe" will be selected by default, if not search for it and select it, then click "3" "Start". This will take you to the next menu. There are 4 fields that can be chosen from: * Program * Settings & Utilities * Memory * Standalone Command Line **Flashing Firmware:** 1. Select the "Settings & Utilities" field, locate the "Program Load" drop down, then click the bubble for "All Unprotected Sectors". By default this is set to "Necessary Sectors Only" and must be changed. Now scroll down to the "Manual Erase" drop down, ensure "Erase entire flash" is selected. 1. Select the "Program" field, then the search field "Flash Image(s)", click "Brouse", navigate to where Simplelink SDK has been installed. Navigate further to the folder containing the co-processor firmware and select the **coprocessor_cc13xx_lp.hex**: {{{ $SDK_TRUNK/simplelink_cc13x0_sdk_1_40_00_10/examples/rtos/CC1350_LAUNCHXL/ti154stack/hexfiles/coprocessor_cc13xx_lp.hex #Note this is the hexfiles directory }}} 1. Attach the GW16122 you wish to be the Collector to your USB > mPCI-e adapter, attach this to your host machine's USB port, then click "Load Image". 1. Disconnect the Collector GW16122, remove it from the USB > mPCI-e adapter and replace it with the GW16122 that will act as a sensor. 1. In the search field under "Flash Image(s)" navigate to the folder containing the sensor firmware and select **sensor_default.hex**: {{{ $SDK_TRUNK/simplelink_cc13x0_sdk_1_40_00_10/examples/rtos/CC1350_LAUNCHXL/ti154stack/hexfiles/default/sensor_default.hex #Note this is a subdirectory of hexfiles }}} 1. Be sure "All Unprotected Sectors" and "Erase entire flash" settings from step one are still selected, click "Load Image", when the message "[SUCCESS] Program Load completed successfully." is displayed and the flashing procedure is complete, disconnect the GW16122 from the desktop workstation USB. === Install GW16122 collector on SBC then launch webUI gateway === 1. Attach antenna to "SUB 1GHz" port of the GW16122 that is programmed with "co-processor" firmware, now install GW16122 on Gateworks SBC in a slot with USB signaling. 1. Power the Gateworks SBC, verify GW16122 is present with lsusb. **Example:** {{{#!bash root@bionic-newport:~# lsusb Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0451:bef3 Texas Instruments, Inc. #This is the GW16122 Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0424:5744 Standard Microsystems Corp.

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub }}} 3. "ifconfig" record localhost ip. Be sure this IP is on the same subnet as your desktop workstation. **Example:** {{{#!bash root@bionic-newport:~# ifconfig eth0: flags=4163 mtu 1500 inet 172.24.24.193 netmask 255.240.0.0 broadcast 172.24.255.255 # In this example 172.24.24.193 is the IP address of the localhost. inet6 fe80::2d0:12ff:feda:f3fa prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20 ether 00:d0:12:da:f3:fa txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 5038 bytes 490843 (490.8 KB) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 173 bytes 16799 (16.7 KB) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 lo: flags=73 mtu 65536 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 scopeid 0x10 loop txqueuelen 1000 (Local Loopback) RX packets 36 bytes 4392 (4.3 KB) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 36 bytes 4392 (4.3 KB) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 }}} 4. Navigate to then launch the gateway, it will be silent and in the background: {{{#!bash cd ~/ti/ti154stack_linux_x64_2_08_00_04/example/gateway/ nodejs gateway.js 1>/dev/null & }}} * If this is successful you will see a PID. 5. Navigate to then launch host_collector: {{{#!bash cd ~/ti/ti154stack_linux_x64_2_08_00_04/example/collector ./host_collector collector.cfg }}} 6. Uppon running host_collector a file nv-simulation.bin is created, be sure to delete this file at the end of every session. **It is critical this file is not present when launching host_collector.** {{{#!bash rm nv-simulation.bin #if this file is present no errors will display but sub 1 GHz connection will not complete }}} === Collector WebUI === Open Brouser on desktop workstation, navigate to the IP address of your Gateworks SBC (recorded in previous steps), append the port :1310 and enter this into the address bar. Using the IP from the example the address bar will contain "http://172.24.24.193:1310/". In the "Network Information" field click the "Open" button next to the text "Network close for New Devices", when sucessful this will change to "Network open for New Devices" === Power ON sensor, final steps === Attach antenna to "SUB 1GHz" port of the GW16122 that will act as "Sensor". Connect the GW16122 "sensor" to the USB of your desktop workstation to power it on. The sensor should connect imedately to the collector, this is indicated by the red LED D2 iluminating. If this LED does not iluminate see "Troubleshooting" section. Using the WebUI check that a "Sensor Node" is present. Under "RSSI" click the "ToggleLED" box, this will cause LED D1 and D2 on the Collector to turn on brifly. This is verification that all the steps have been followed correctly, and RSSI signals can be sent and recieved. === Troubleshooting === * Be sure GW16122 boards have an antenna installed * Be sure the collector network is an open network so that the sensors can be joined. By default, the network is closed and no sensors can join * Use "systemctl |grep running -i" or "systemctl |grep modem -i" to verify !ModemManager is not running. * Be sure that the Gateworks board and collector are all setup and turned on and the WebGUI is live with the host_collector program running on the Gateworks board. After this, then try re-programming the sensor firmware, then powering it off and back on. * On the Gateworks board nv-simulation.bin has been deleted. This file will erase all previously connected sensor entries. * When flashing "Erase all unprotected sectors" and "Erase entire flash" have been selected. === What's Next? === This example showcases a network setup between a sensor and collector, with the Gateworks SBC acting as a co-processor. Future development will be accomplished through understanding all the Ti source code contained in the !SimpleLink SDK and TI 15.4 Stack. Custom applications can be created using all of the TI provided software.

This could cause mechanical conflicts depending on the baseboard used. == Texas Instruments CC1350 Reference Design == For more information see the [http://www.ti.com/product/CC1350 TI ​CC1350 Product Page]. == RF Network / Infrastructure == The GW16122 / CC1350 operates on its own network. It does not rely on towers/networks installed by 3rd party companies (!LoRa, Sigfox, Verizon, AT&T, etc). The entire network infrastructure is under control by the user. This includes sensors/nodes, collector(s), antennas and more. == Network Architecture == The default is a star-based topology system where there is one central collector (The GW16122 on a Gateworks SBC) that listens to all the sensors / nodes that are around it. == Sensor Limits == Number of connected users: * Support for 50 nodes in network is for the MAC-!CoProcessor configuration, where the network employs full MAC level security (AES-128). The Security table can take up all available RAM considering 500 bytes packets so some trade off are possible if the max packet size that must be supported by the application is smaller and the network size can go bigger (probably not reach 1K nodes). The network can scale up to much more nodes if for instance the security is removed at MAC level and deployed at application level (the code is hosted on Linux). The actual network size would be in that case more limited by the traffic profile (ie how frequently data is exchanged). == Range Testing == Gateworks did basic range testing with the GW16122 using a 2dBi Omni Antenna on the 915Mhz band. A successful link was acquired at 4500ft/1.4km over water. Note both the transmitter and receiver were only 1m off the ground so much better performance would be expected if the antennas were mounted higher to clear the Fresnel zones. Using a directional antennas, range can be increased further with links easily greater then >10Km. Additionally, there is different modes and tuning that can be done in software to increase the range, such as LRM (long range mode). More range information may be found on the [https://e2e.ti.com/support/ TI E2E Forums] and on the TI documentation listed in the references on this page.

The example lab documentation to get started can be found at the [http://dev.ti.com/tirex/content/simplelink_academy_cc13x0sdk_1_12_01_16/modules/154-stack_01_sensor_collector/154-stack_01_sensor_collector.html ​TI 15.4-Stack Project Zero] page. Further documentation can be found in the [http://dev.ti.com/tirex/content/simplelink_cc13x0_sdk_1_40_00_10/docs/ti154stack/ti154stack-users-guide/ti154stack/index.html ​TI 15.4 User's Guide]. === Texas Instruments Code Composer Studio === Code Composer Studio (CCS) is an IDE based on Eclipse and includes various libraries and software packages required to develop on many TI MCU's, including the CC1350 which is the primary component of the GW16122. Below are some various notes on using CCS. See the [http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/CCSv6_Getting_Started_Guide ​Getting Started wiki] and the [http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Category:Code_Composer_Studio_v7 ​Main CCS wiki] for more information. ==== Resource Center ==== Click Menu item View -> Resource Explorer Expand software and view !SimpleLink CC13x0 SDK as well as Ti-RTOS for CC2650 Drill down to the area you would like to explore Find an example, then click the download button to download to desktop Then click the import to IDE to import the project ==== Building a Project ==== Once the project is imported, right click on the project title in the explorer window and click 'Build Project' and let it compile. You can also click the debug button to build the project and run it on the connected target. Once it is complete, a binaries folder will be created under the project. Most TI tools will use the .out file that is produced there to program with. Alternatively you can build projects via command line and avoid the entire IDE if you so desire. See the official TI wiki on [http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Projects_-_Command_Line_Build/Create ​Command Line Build/Create] for more information. A couple of additional notes when building via command line: Note that the executable for Linux CCS installations is named "eclipse" and not "eclipsec" Run with "-ccs.help" to see full list of options Use full path names for all command line arguments (environment variables useful here) === General Notes === * The XDS110 USB debugger referenced by material related to the CC1350 or in CCS is equivalent to the !TiVa chip that's on the GW16122 * Make sure the GW16122 is properly into the miniPcie->USB adapter board otherwise it will come up as a usb device but fail to be recognized by the code composer software. You can check if its connected properly by opening the {{{.ccxml}}} file under the projects targetConfigs folder and hitting the "test connection" button. If multiple boards are connected at once you will * need to specify them by serial number. * The US frequency allows for a total of 129 channels to choose from, defined in {{{CONFIG_CHANNEL_MASK}}} You can prevent conflicts of sensor networks by either limiting the channels enabled on each collector/sensor, or by setting the PAN-ID to match on the devices belonging to each * network. * Beware of adding too many channels to your channel mask, for example, adding all of them took well over 20 minutes to complete the channel selection cycle and bring up the network. * Line of sight is extremely significant. Depending on the material, a few obstacles can drastically reduce your maximum range. * General RF information and specific information regarding antenna choice and performance can be found in this [http://www.ti.com/lit/an/swra161b/swra161b.pdf ​app note]. === UART RX/TX Example === At a high level, this example allows for you to type from a keyboard to an open UART on each side and the data will be sent to the other side. One single project is designed to do TX and RX (one firmware file). Download the pre-compiled firmware here: [http://dev.gateworks.com/gw16122/uart-rx-tx-example-firmware/ uartRxTx_CC1350_LAUNCHXL_TI.out] Using a Windows or Linux desktop/laptop PC, flash this firmware to the GW16122. Connect the GW16122 to the desired system where you will then open the UART communication. This example exposes 2 serial ports to the host that the GW16122 is connected to. * Linux Example * /dev/ttyACM0 (use this first UART) * /dev/ttyACM1 * Windows Example * COM6 (use this first UART) * COM8 Open the serial port /dev/ttyACM0 on the host using a terminal program of your choice, such as screen / picocom or Putty using 115200 baud rate and turn on local echo. You can type the data you want to send, but ***must*** press the 'Enter' key to actually send the data. Type a message on the console on the TX side, like so: {{{ hi, hello world! }}} The other end will print the received data with a string like so: {{{ rx data: hi, hello world! }}} This example code uses the following LEDs on the GW16122: * LED D1 toggles green when it sends * LED D2 toggles red when it receives The RF is at 500 kbps by default but can be adjusted in the source code. == Programming the CC1350 == The CC1350 of the GW16122 can be programmed a number of ways depending on your host machine. Gateworks has tested both Windows (SmartRF Flash Programmer v2) and Linux (Uniflash) tools but specific instructions will be provided from the Linux perspective. However, the [wiki:#HostProgrammingSoftware Windows Software] may be easier and more reliable to use. You will need to have installed the software detailed in the [wiki:expansion/gw16122#SetUp Set Up] section in order to continue. The Uniflash tool is linux compatible and has both a gui and command line interface. The gui program has an autodetect feature and is somewhat easier to use but the command line tool has the same functionality and is better suited for repeated tasks with constant configurations. * Note that there doesn't appear to be a way to update the firmware on a running ARM based target. All of the methods we used to program the !TiVa and CC1350 MCU's from a x86 host are not compatible with an ARM based system. This means that users will not be able to update firmware on running boards. === GUI Approach === 1. Connect a single GW16122 to the host machine (desktop/laptop) via mini-PCIe to USB adapter. 1. Open the "Uniflash" application through a gui file manager from the uniflash_4.2 install directory, or via command line: {{{#!bash ./uniflash_4.2/node-webkit/nw }}} 1. Select target device of CC1350F128 1. Select connection of Texas Instruments XDS110 USB Debug Probe 1. Click the "Start" button In the Program tab, select the firmware file you wish to load. This is typically a .out file created via a Code Composer Studio Project and can be found in your workspace directory (default {{{~/workspace_v7/}}}) 1. Click the "Load Image" and "Verify Image" buttons and see the text console output on the bottom of the window for a green success message It should also be mentioned that you can program your GW16122 directly from the Code Composer Studio IDE by creating a proper target configuration and then selecting "Debug". Most of the TI example projects will detail this procedure. At this point you may want to power cycle your device. === Command Line Approach === 1. Navigate to your uniflash install directory {{{#!bash cd uniflash_4.2 }}} 1. Run the installer providing a configuration and .out file as arguments, for example: {{{#!bash ./dslite.sh --config=CC1350F128.ccxml ~/workspace_v7/collector_cc1350lp/collector_cc1350lp/collector_cc1350lp.out }}} The {{{CC1350F128.ccxml}}} file can be created via the uniflash gui or Code Composer Studio IDE. The contents of the file are provided in the collapsible text below for convenience.

For the GW16122 this is done via a mini-PCIe to USB converter such as our GW16115. You will need to have installed the software detailed in the [wiki:expansion/gw16122#SetUp Set Up] section in order to continue. Since the !TiVa MCU functions as an XDS110 debug probe for the GW16122, you can use the default firmware included in the Code Composer Studio installation directory. To flash the bootloader and/or firmware via '''USB''': 1. Navigate to your Code Composer installation directory 1. Enter the XDS110 folder in ccs {{{#!bash cd ccsv7/ccs_base/common/uscif/xds110/ }}} 1. Connect a single GW16122 to your host machine via USB port. If more than one are connected the {{{xdsfu}}} program will operate on the first device it finds. {{{#!bash xdsdfu -e }}} If no device is found, check your connections and cables, if no usb device enumerates you will need to flash your firmware via JTAG. 1. Once a device is enumerated, flash the default XDS110 bootloader and firmware {{{#!bash xdsdfu -m xdsdfu -b bootloader.bin -r xdsdfu -m xdsdfu -f firmware.bin -r }}} Alternatively, to flash the bootloader and/or firmware via '''JTAG''': 1. Connect an external XDS110 debug probe to your host machine via USB, and to the GW16122 via 10-pin JTAG connector (designator J4) 1. Run the Uniflash gui application 1. Select target device of {{{TiVa > TM4C1294NCPDT}}} 1. Select connection of {{{XDS110 Debug Probe}}} 1. Click "Start" 1. Select the {{{boot_loader.bin}}} and {{{firmware.bin}}} files from the {{{ccsv7/ccs_base/common/uscif/xds110/}}} directory (click the plus sign to flash multiple files) and enter load addresses of {{{0x0000}}} and {{{0x4000}}} respectively 1. Click "Load Image" If you run into trouble using uniflash to load both the bootloader and firmware, just flash the bootloader and use the above USB method to flash the firmware. A properly flashed !TiVa MCU should now enumerate as a XDS110 debug probe which is required to program the connected CC1350. {{{#!bash # lsusb entry: Bus XXX Device XXX: ID 0451:bef3 Texas Instruments, Inc. # xdsdfu -e entry: VID: 0x0451 PID: 0xbef3 Device Name: XDS110 Embed with CMSIS-DAP Version: 2.3.0.9 Manufacturer: Texas Instruments }}} More information can be found on the {{{xdsdfu}}} tool via the {{{ReadMe.txt}}} in the same directory.
