2013-06-27 01:06 <w|zzy> wpwrak: Ive used the broadcom WICED platform.
2013-06-27 01:06 <w|zzy> Hardest part was getting a dev board in AU
2013-06-27 01:12 wolfspraul has joined #qi-hardware
2013-06-27 02:10 <wpwrak> w|zzy: and how was the experience ? which module did you use ?
2013-06-27 02:12 <w|zzy> BCMUSI11       : USI 43362-based WICED+ Module (STM32F205 MCU, 8Mbit serial flash) mounted on BCM9WCD1MFI1
2013-06-27 02:12 <w|zzy> Thats the platform i am using. One of the early dev boards..
2013-06-27 02:13 <w|zzy> Its a very easy build environment. The provide everything needed to compiler/upload (and also the source and instructions if you want to compile yourself) so that there are no issues with the build env
2013-06-27 02:13 <w|zzy> Code is pretty neat and easy to follow.
2013-06-27 02:13 <w|zzy> Plenty of neat little examples.
2013-06-27 02:13 <wpwrak> i have an USI board with a WM-N-BM-08. i think it should be very similar to your board then.
2013-06-27 02:14 <wpwrak> (neat code) that sounds encouraging :)
2013-06-27 02:14 <w|zzy> You haven't got the SDK yet?
2013-06-27 02:16 <wpwrak> i have it but haven't done anything with it besides having a very quick look. tried to build something for my board but of course the build didn't even accept my configuration.
2013-06-27 02:17 <w|zzy> The SDK is up to 2.3.1
2013-06-27 02:18 <w|zzy> I dislike how they authorise access to the SDK.. Its cookie based or something silly.
2013-06-27 02:18 <w|zzy> anyway thats not important.
2013-06-27 02:18 <w|zzy> build system is pretty easy
2013-06-27 02:18 <w|zzy> 1sbrb
2013-06-27 02:20 <w|zzy> make demo.temp_control-BCMUSI11 download run
2013-06-27 02:21 <w|zzy> So.. it looks in the Apps folder for the demo folder, then the temp_control folder
2013-06-27 02:21 <w|zzy> and compiles for a BCMUSI11 board
2013-06-27 02:21 <w|zzy> then download and run
2013-06-27 02:22 <wpwrak> i have version 2.3.0. doesn't like that command
2013-06-27 02:22 <w|zzy> hardest part is working out which board you have.
2013-06-27 02:22 <wpwrak> oh wait ... now i see it. it's ./make, not "make". argh.
2013-06-27 02:23 <w|zzy> you have to use make from inside the folder.
2013-06-27 02:26 <wpwrak> my board ought to be BCM9WCDUSI09
2013-06-27 02:28 <wpwrak> (if it's any of them at all)
2013-06-27 02:28 <w|zzy> I should note that my wifes cousin developed half of the SDK.
2013-06-27 02:28 <w|zzy> if you have any queries i can ask.
2013-06-27 02:29 <w|zzy> you can just try
2013-06-27 02:29 <w|zzy> the platforms are in the readme file
2013-06-27 02:30 <wpwrak> seems to work ;)
2013-06-27 02:30 <w|zzy> The appliance demo is pretty good.
2013-06-27 02:30 <wpwrak> now ..to see what it's doing ...
2013-06-27 02:30 <w|zzy> Indeed. You can specify which rtos to use.. or go raw...
2013-06-27 02:31 <wpwrak> seems that it defaults to ThreadX
2013-06-27 02:31 <w|zzy> they bought ThreadX and NetX for people to use with their wireless platform.
2013-06-27 02:31 <w|zzy> Yeah.
2013-06-27 02:32 <w|zzy> I should say they bought a license to cover the use of ThreadX and NetX..
2013-06-27 02:32 <wpwrak> the less closed the better :) so i'll try my luck with freertos.
2013-06-27 02:33 <w|zzy> how to change that is specified in the makefile
2013-06-27 02:33 <wpwrak> but first i need to see if i can get a serial console. i suppose it reports things there ?
2013-06-27 02:33 <w|zzy> Its a fairly nice build system
2013-06-27 02:33 <w|zzy> Yeah
2013-06-27 02:33 <w|zzy> 115200 8N1
2013-06-27 02:33 <wpwrak> yeah, i just have to build the right magic config string
2013-06-27 02:34 <w|zzy> snip/config_mode is pretty cool.
2013-06-27 02:34 <wpwrak> i found the instructions once, i'll find them again :)
2013-06-27 02:36 <w|zzy> make demo.temp_control-BCMUSI11-FreeRTOS-LwIP download run
2013-06-27 02:37 <w|zzy> Also.... Everything gets built in the SDK/build directory.
2013-06-27 02:39 <w|zzy> Also.. There is an image for the wireless chip itself that is store in the chip rom.. It is possible to load that into an eeprom or such.
2013-06-27 02:40 <wpwrak> kewl. wlan scan is running. picks up half the city even without an antenna ;-))
2013-06-27 02:40 <w|zzy> :)
2013-06-27 02:40 <w|zzy> Any ideas what you will use it for?
2013-06-27 02:40 <w|zzy> Does your board have the current IC?
2013-06-27 02:41 <wpwrak> what's the current IC ?
2013-06-27 02:41 <wpwrak> the plan is to use this for a wpan-wlan gateway
2013-06-27 02:45 <wpwrak> demo.temp_control doesn't seem to do anything
2013-06-27 02:45 <wpwrak> or maybe it doesn't like freertos
2013-06-27 02:46 <wpwrak> let's try config_mode
2013-06-27 02:47 <wpwrak> ah, pilot error :)
2013-06-27 02:47 <w|zzy> you have the serial port happening?
2013-06-27 02:47 <wpwrak> i had copied your config string without changing it to my board :)
2013-06-27 02:47 <w|zzy> btw cosm doesn't exist any more.. so it won't work..
2013-06-27 02:47 <w|zzy> compile appliance...
2013-06-27 02:49 <w|zzy> Its more interesting.
2013-06-27 02:49 <w|zzy> xively replaced cosm...
2013-06-27 02:58 <w|zzy> also.. the downside of the current license is you can't publish our share it... I know the developers are pushing to make it more accessible.
2013-06-27 03:02 <wpwrak> yeah, the license is very bad
2013-06-27 03:03 <wpwrak> hmm, running snip.config_mode but it doens't let me associate
2013-06-27 03:06 <wpwrak> ah, now

2013-06-27 03:10 <w|zzy> :-)
2013-06-27 03:13 <wpwrak> kewl. the critter works :)
2013-06-27 03:15 <wpwrak> apparently, the 43362 is a simplified 4330. so perhaps one could get the linux driver to talk to it.
2013-06-27 03:16 <w|zzy> perhaps...
2013-06-27 03:16 <w|zzy> not my domain
2013-06-27 03:18 <wpwrak> but very much mine :)
2013-06-27 03:22 <w|zzy> if you do let me know.. they could hook it in with the picture

2013-06-27 05:35 <wpwrak> i think the next step will be to map the i/os. USI call them just "GPIO_n", "SPI", etc., without mentioning which of the many units of the same kind this refers to
2013-06-27 05:35 <wpwrak> maybe it's somewhere in the sources. at least the U(S)ART should be.

2013-06-27 13:50 <arossdotme> wpwrak: regarding my NN charging problems. it does charge but very very slowly. Though I have had it powder on while charging so it could log the bat voltage and some time powdered off. It's been 2-3days after getting it to red, 3.5v If I remember correctly. its now 3.984
2013-06-27 13:51 <arossdotme> whitequark:
2013-06-27 13:51 <viric> lekernel: reminded me of kickstarter ;) Is kamikaze the older release of openwrt?
2013-06-27 13:51 <viric> ooops bad copypaste
2013-06-27 13:51 <viric> lekernel: reminded me of kickstarter ;) http://xkcd.com/743/
2013-06-27 13:54 <arossdotme> Could any of charging circuit components get fried if they get 6vish? Didn't see any component doc on the wiki. Haven't open up & probed my NN yet btw.

2013-06-27 14:05 <viric> yes, I remember that perfect kickstarter ;)
2013-06-27 14:06 <viric> lekernel: maybe the 2013 frame should include a 3d printer?  :)
