Forum Post: RE: SimpliciTI newbie questions

Hi,

[quote user="Hithesh"]

1. Are there any examples of simpliciTI star topology. I think this is called AP ?

I am looking for example where one AP connects to 2 or more EDs.

Yes, you can download the SimpliciTI software package, and for every platform, there is an example project called "AP as data hub". Or if you have the low cost eZ430-Rf2500, this might be also one other example: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/EZ430-RF2500#Sensor_Monitor_Demo

2. In the temp sensor example, the ED sends temp data to AP. I want to do the opposite- send a byte from AP to ED.

This looks simple from what I have read in simpliciti docs - just use the function SMPL_SEND()

[/quote]

Yes, basically once the ED and AP are linked, you can send and receive messages to/from other nodes by using SMPL_Send() and SMPL_Receive(),

3. I am not clear on how to send data to multiple EDs from one AP. How are the addresses assigned?

Manually? Any app note about pairing devices?

Maybe this wiki can help you understanding the basic concept of the device linking: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/SimpliciTI_FAQ#How_can_i_send_address_a_message_to_a_certain_device.3F_The_SMPL_Send.28.29_function_seems_to_not_have_any_parameter_for_device_addressing
