[Tinyos-help] Communicating with motes with Serial Port

2005-12-06 Thread Prasanna Ballal

all things are possible...haw. Assuming you can attach wires to the Rx, Tx, and Gnd contacts on the mote you should be able to connect them to some other logic level serial device -- remember to cross them over Rx to Tx. That said, _real_ RS232 works at +/-3v but the logic levels from the motes

MAX232 / HIN232 are the RS232 line driver ICs. They are fairly easy to set up. Have a look at their data sheets. Simon Michael Schippling wrote: all things are possible...haw. Assuming you can attach wires to the Rx, Tx, and Gnd contacts on the mote you should be able to connect them to
