Introduction:

The SC14DECTIPBS is an internet enabled DECT base station which connects TCP/IP basedapplications (i.e. cloud applications) to a DECT ULE network of Wireless Sensor Modules (WSMDATA).Typically an application will consist of several nodes connected to a single SC14DECTIPBS basestation. The SC14WSMDATA module can be used to create sensor and actuator nodes. See Figure 1. In the remainder of this document, the SC14WSMDATA nodes will be referred to as the portable part(PP) and the SC14DECTIPBS as fixed part (FP).

The SC14DECTIPBS is a reference design. It uses Dialog SC452 VOIP SoC as a host processor to aSC14CVMDECT.

5. Software development on SC14DECTIPBS

The Virtual Machine contains the SC14DECTIPBS source code and all the tools required to programthe platform. There are three basic steps in developing the SW on the SC14DECTIPBS. For moredetails, please refer to the SC14DECTIPBS SW Manual. The steps are:

1. Compiling and debugging the code on the PC.The Eclipse environment provides extensive debug options to debug a program (breakpoints,stepping, watching variables, ). The program communicates with the SC14DECTIPBS radiomodule directly over Ethernet.

2. Compiling the code for the SC14DECTIPBS target and run it from the target RAM.The target provides print statement debugging capabilities. This step is used to verify theprogram is working as expected on the target. Upon reset the board loses the RAM content sothe program will be lost.

3. Create the linux image and update the FLASH.This step creates a FLASH image for the SC14DECTIPBS (much like the hard drive contents ofa PC) and stores it in the board. This step is taken when step 2 has shown that the programworks and stores the program to FLASH meaning the program will not be lost upon reset. Asstep 3 takes considerably longer than step 2 usually a program is first developed in RAM andafterwards stored to FLASH.


1.

First connect the Ethernet connector(top red square).



2.

Check if the board functions correctly. Inorder to access the boards on your localnetwork only LED D4 and D2 need to light

up continuously.

3.

From the DVD folder PcTools , doubleclick the DECT-ULE-SetupWizard.exe file

Match the hostname to the number underthe board to find the board IP address.

Since the Virtual Machine environment isnow also installed, the

DECT-ULE-SetupWizard can also beaccessed from Linux.

4.

If not already started, start the VirtualMachine and log in.

Important: username and passwordare:

User : uleuserPassword : uleuser

26/43




10.

The console will prompt to type in the

IPBase board IP address.

Click once in the (white) console area toselect the console and type theSC14DECTIPBS IP address.

(as found by the DECT-ULE-SetupWizard )

Press enter to complete the configuration ofthe SDK.

Important: It is important to configurethe correct IP. If not done, the

programming tools in the Eclipse SDK will notwork. Once configured, the IP does not need tobe re-configured if the board IP does not change.The last board IP is stored in a configuration file

so closing and (re)opening the SDK will notchange the board IP configuration.

19.

The Virtual Machine and SC14DECTIPBSare successfully set up for SW

development.


27/43




6. Compile/debug/run the application on the PC

In order to speed up the development process the whole ule application can be compiled andrun on the virtual machine itself, except a small portion of code which stills runs on the board.This option has the following advantages:

The Eclipse environment provides extensive debug options (breakpoints, stepping,watching variables) to debug the program running on the PC (GDB graphical debugenvironment).

The website can debugged with any common debug tool like Dreamweaver/Firebug, asthe webserver and the host CPU is the virtual machine itself.

There is no need to transfer any files to the board during development process.

Note that the same application will be cross compiled and downloaded to the target later on.What to do! Additional info

1.

First build the Software for the PCarchitecture by clicking the dropdown

button next to the hammer and selectingDebug_PCBUILD.

Check if the build is successful. If theconsole shows finished building target

the build was successful.


28/43




2.

In order to connect the radio module on theSC14DECTIPBS to the Eclipse SDK a stub

(small program) must be downloaded to theboard. This stub connects the radio moduleto the SDK over the Ethernet network.

Press the drop down button next to the RunExternal Tools button and select

Run Dect Bridge.

3.

Verify in the console area that the DectBridge stub has started correctly.

4.

If the stub has downloaded correctly, pressthe drop down button next to the Debug

button.

Select ULE_RefDebugAPP

5.

Running the ULE_RefDebugAPP willautomatically open the debug environment.

Start the application by pushing theResume button.

For more information on debugging withEclipse tools, please see the

SC14DECTIPBS SW manual and the(extensive) information on Eclipse on the

internet.


29/43




Note: Since the ULE application isrunning on the Virtual Machine the

web interface and demo page is now activein the Virtual Machine (using libmicrohttpd).In the default user application port 8020 isused in the VM. Open a browser and go tohttp://localhost :8020 orhttp://127.0.0.1 :8020 . For more tips on howto work on the demo page please see theSC14DECTIPBS SW manual.

Warning: As an added feature thePC_BUILD version uses simulated sensors,a way to test IPBASE behavior with sensorsthat do not exist yet or are underdevelopmnet. This feature doesnt inteferewith operation of normal sensors which arealso active in parallel. Uncomment functionULE_Sensor_Simulate in main_app.c todisable this feature.

6.

When finished debugging, terminate theapplication by pressing the Terminate

button.

Go back to the C/C++ view by closing thedebug view. Right Click the Debug view

(top right of your screen) and selectClose.

Important: Make sure the debugapplication is not running anymore beforecontinuing. Running applications maydisturb follow up steps.

30/43




7.

Optionally, you can debug natively the uleapplication clicking the debug button andusing the Eclipse GDB debug tool.

8.

Finally one very useful to use for debuggingwebsite code is the Firefox plugin Firebug.This tools enable the inspection ofgenerated html code, add the ability tobreakpoint in JavaScript code and inspectJavaScript variables as well as intrnalJSON exchange activity.

9.

The application has now been verified tofunction properly by testing the functionality

on the PC.
http://getfirebug.com/http://getfirebug.com/http://getfirebug.com/


31/43




7. Cross compiling the application and run from RAM

This step is used to verify the program is working as expected on the target. When theapplication is run from the RAM on the SC14DECTIPBS, the application output will be printedto the console. Upon reset the board loses the RAM content so the program will be lost.


1.

First cross-compile the Software for theSC14DECTIPBS target architecture by

clicking the dropdown button next to thehammer and selecting

Release_CROSSCOMPILE.

Check if the build is successful. If theconsole shows Copy to TFTP server

and no apparent errors show the build wassuccessful.

2.

In order to run the application it must bedownloaded to the target and executed.

This is done by executing an expect script,which logs in to the board using Telnet,

then downloads the latest application fromthe Virtual Machine built in TFTP server (towhich it was copied after compilation) and

executes it.

To invoke this script, go to the dropdownbutton next to the External Tools button and

select:Run ule_app


32/43




3.

The console now shows the script loggingin on the board, downloading the

application from the Virtual Machine TFTPserver and executing it.

The application response will show in theconsole area.

Warning: Application menu is notaccessible with this method. Eclipse usestelnet to kick off the ule application in theboard. Eclipse will only receive the outputfrom the application but will not be able to

send any keystrokes to it.

4.

The application is now cross compiled forthe SC14DECTIPBS target and has been

tested on the actual device.


33/43




8. Upgrading the SC14DECTIPBS FLASH image

.This step creates a FLASH image for the SC14DECTIPBS (much like the hard drive contents ofa PC) and stores it in the board. This step is taken when the application has been debuggedand verified. Upgrading the SC14DECTIPBS FLASH image stores the program to FLASHmeaning the program will not be lost upon reset.


1.

Updating the SC14DECTIPBS image.

After the application has been successfullymodified and debugged it is time to updatethe image in the board so that the changes

are made permanent. Build the entireimage (= application + Operating System +file system + ) by clicking the dropdown

button next to the Compile button andselect:

BUILD BOARD IMAGE

Note: compiling an image may takea while.

Check if the build is successful. If theconsole shows

cp linux- 2.6.x/vmlinuz /ser/tftp and noapparent errors show the build was

successful.


34/43




2.

In order to update the SC14DECTIPBSimage in the FLASH it must be downloaded

to the target and stored. This is done byexecuting an expect script, which logs in tothe board using Telnet. The script thendownloads the image from the Virtual

Machine built in TFTP server and stores itto the FLASH (after erasing the FLASH).

To invoke this script, go to the dropdownbutton next to the External Tools button and

select:Update flash

Important: Make sure this process isnot disturbed by for instance disconnectingthe ethernet, power cycling the board orresetting the board. This will corrupt theflash and make the image difficult torestore.

3.

The console now shows the script loggingin on the board, downloading the imagefrom the Virtual Machine TFTP server,

erasing the FLASH and storing the newimage.

Once the update is successful, the boardwill be reset in order to activate the new

image.

4.

The ULE application (including the website,file system, OS and so on) have been

stored to FLASH successfully. Changes tothe application or website will be retained

after resetting the board.


35/43




9. Where to change the code

.This section provides a few pointers where to change the Software in order to change functionality ofthe SC14DECTIPBS. Please see the SC14DECTIPBS SW manual for a more detailed description ofthe SW architecture.


1.

The boards internal website can bemodified by changing the contents of thewebsite directory (index.html). Refer to SWmanual for a more thorough description ofavailable functionality.

Note: the FLASH space on theboard is limited, so the websiteshould not exceed 500kB or so.

2.

The main_app.c file can be modified to: Register new function callbacks for

new sensor types Change the main output to the

console when starting theapplication


36/43




3.

The sensor_handlers.c file contains thecallback functions for the sensors

(callbacks are registered in main_app.c ).

4.

The ule_simulate.c contains simulationsensors when just running on the PC.Modify this file to simulate sensor deviceswhen running in the PC environment.

Note that the PC application is alwaysconnected to the boards Radio Module, butsimulated sensors provide easy debuggingcapabilities.


37/43




5.

The userhtmlHandler.c file contains thecode for incoming connections on the IPside. Use this to bypass ULE app defaultJSON interface.

Change this code to add specific linksbetween your ULE application and clientson the IP side.

6.

The webrequest_handler.c is specificallydesigned to store application rules on theSC14DECTIPBS.

Basically it stores rules such as whendevice w sends message x , the baseshould send message y to device z to a filein the FLASH and uses that to processincoming events from the ULE networkdevices.


38/43




10. Connecting Serial Port

This section describes how to connect the serial port interface to development machine. Thisinterface can be used for extra debug capabilities and system recovery in case of flashcorruption.

There are two methods which can be used to access the IP base serial port. The first is byhyperTRM from the windows machine and the other is by using minicom in the virtual machine. Minicom ispreconfigured in the VM and is adviced to use this option as part of all-in-one development process.


1.

Connect a IPBASE to your PC with a USBto TTL converter cable.

The black cable of the FTDI cableshould be connected to the

connector pin marked as black.

2.If you are connecting the IPBASE to yourcomputer for the first time, the hardware

drivers need to be installed before you can

proceed.

3.

On the virtual machine Device Menu, selectUSB Device and then the FTDI device.


39/43




4.

On the virtual machine, click on the Rootterminal (uleuser is the password) and thetype ./serial_terminal.sh. This will open

minico, a program used to send and receivecharacters from the UART.

5. Alternatively you can use Windows

HyperTerminal to access IPBASE COMport.

6.

Open menu File and select NewConnection

Give the new connection a name and clickon OK . The Connect To window appears

7.

Select the that represents theUSB connecter, to which the USB-to-Serial

cable is currently connected.Click on OK to continue.

Note : If the mapping between andUSB port is not clear, check the devicemanager.

On Windows XP go to the Control Panel ,item System .

Under tab Hardware click on DeviceManager .

Go to the item Ports (COM & LPT) .

Check which COM port is the USB SerialPort


40/43




8.

Enter the following settings in the COM

properties windows.Bits per second: 115200Data bits: 8Parity: NoneStop bits: 1Flow control: None

9. The IPBASE is now connected with serialport.


41/43




11. Restoring the SC14DECTIPBS

This section describes what to do if the SC14DECTIPBS is not responding anymore. Most likelythe FLASH upgrade process has been disrupted or the FLASH has been corrupted otherwise.Although this is not very likely to happen, the following steps can be used to restore functionalityon the SC14DECTIPBS.


1.

Follow chapter 10 to connect the board aserial cable.

The black cable of the FTDI cableshould be connected to the

connector pin marked as black.

2.

The Virtual Machine should be running. Ithas a built in TFTP server that is hosting

the Linux binary.

Find the IP address of the Virtual Machineby typing ifconfig. Note that in this

3.

Stop the autoboot by pressing any key in

the serial terminal within three seconds.

4.

Program the following settings:

setenv serverip 10.0.3.190This setting defines the IP addressof the Virtual Machine (where theTFTP server recides).

setenv ipaddr 10.0.3.10

The SC14DECTIPBS board needsan IP address to communicate(10.0.3.10 in this example, pleasecontact your system administratorwhich address is available).

setenv netmask 255.255.0.0Set the netmask appropriately.Usually two subnets are sufficient.

saveenvStore the settings with the saveenvcommand.

5.

After programming the correct settings the

Linux image can be restored using thefollowing command:

upgrade vmlinuz a00000 20000

6. Reset the SC14DECTIPBS after theupgrade is done and the board is restored.
