Hi
Use the formula on pg 28 of this document.
also u have declared data in MyMsg to be an array of size 18 ie it runs from 0 to 17 and u r using
data[18] is it right just check that.

Hi all!I searched in the archieves and found some of the topics that disscuss about power range however I still have problem with it.in the CC1000ControlM at the line:// Set default parameter values
// POWER 0dbm
gCurrentParameters[0xb] = ((8 << CC1K_PA_HIGHPOWER) | (0 << CC1K_PA_LOWPOWER));
call HPLChipcon.write(CC1K_PA_POW, gCurrentParameters[0xb]);I guess I can make a change to power range here so I make change :gCurrentParameters[0xb] = 1; //I want to change to the minimum power range
call HPLChipcon.write(CC1K_PA_POW, gCurrentParameters[0xb]);After that I recompile my program and run it. However It seems that my change does not go in to effect (the range is still large).Can you tell me the correct way to make the change to the power range?I have one more question about signal strength.I made the change at the TOS_Base, I try to read the signal strength from TOS_Msgevent TOS_MsgPtr RadioReceive.receive(TOS_MsgPtr Msg) {cmd= (struct MyMsg *)Msg->data;temp1 = (int8_t) (((Msg->strength)>>8) & 0xF);//take 8 MSBcmd->data[17] = temp1;//put in to packet at data[17]
temp2 = (int8_t) ((8<<(Msg->strength)) & 0xF);//take 8 LSB
cmd->data[18] = temp2;//put in ton packet at data[18]..........................................Here is MyMsg structure:typedef struct MyMsg {
uint16_t seqno;
int8_t action;
uint16_t source;
uint8_t hop_count;
uint16_t destaddr;
int8_t data[18];
} MyMsg;After that, I use Listen program to read signal strength value, however all the times these values are always 0 or 1 (convert to decimal number). Can anyone tell me is this a correct way to receive signal strength? If correct, how can convert this value to dBm?many thanks!Tran!
