I don't think connecting both USB ends of two telosb motes makes sense, since the FTDI chip is working only when connected to a proper USB host (Such as PC usb port, but not another TelosB mote).

Also the USB on TelosB is connected to UART 1.

If its your only option to use UART1, then you may hardwire two TelosB's UART1 by solderin wires directly into the FTDI chip on TelosB (See the datasheet).

Other wise you could use UART0 that is on the 10pin header expansion.

Hello all,

I am trying to establish communication between two TelosB motes not via the radio but using the UART.

At first I burned the TestSerial Code in both the motes and connected their USB ports via a USB Female to Female cable. 
However it did not lead to communication and blinking of the Leds which happens normally while using the Java TestSerial Code.

So, i further tried to use the UART 0 using the connectors on the mote. I made the required changes in the PlatformSerialC.nc file to use the UART0 port.
But this too did not lead to communication between the motes.

My aim is to interface an Underwater Acoustic modem (SAM 1 from Desert Star) to the mote's Serial port through which it can be controlled.

Can anyone please advise me on this matter and help in establishing serial communication between TelosB motes.

Thank you in advance.
