I've been trying to configure the analog-digital converter on a telosB  
mote so that it can read from an external, third-party sensor.  I'm  
trying to use the AdcReadStream modules to do this, but I have no idea  
how to set up the configuration structure (the one that's passed to  
the module when the ADC needs to know how to configure itself).  None  
of the TinyOS documentation has helped me much, probably because I  
don't know enough about the motes to know what the various parameters  
correspond to.

The sensor (Decagon's 5TE model) sends a serial stream of ASCII  
characters (6-15 bytes long).  The stream is 1200 baud asynchronous  
with 8 data bits, no parity, and one stop bit; the voltage levels are  
0-3.6V and logic levels are active low.

The configuration doesn't provide for all of this data, and it  
requires much more that's not specified for the sensor (including what  
appear to be 3 types of clock?).  If someone could give me a  
configuration that might work for this project, or a pointer to  
less-technical documentation, I'd really appreciate it.
