To see this debug console, connect the included DB-9M to DB-9F cable to the RS-232 port of the Sedona dev board. At the PC end, connect this cable to either the included FTDI “USB to RS-232” adapter, or if a standard DB-9 serial port is available, directly to that COM port.
Use a terminal emulation program (e.g. Hyperterminal) on your PC to monitor this console output at the appropriate COM port, using the following parameters:
Baud rate: 115200
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: None
By default, the SED-M0x
module directs diagnostic output to the serial port on the Dev Board, with initial output similar as shown in Figure 14 below.
This may be useful if an app was loaded that uses a different Panid than normally used, as it displays the Panid in use on
startup (for example, “Scanning for PAN 0xdb00 on chan<s>: 0x7fff800
”).
If the default “console debug output to RS-232 port” behavior is not desired, say to allow use of the RS-232 port in development,
you can install a “firmware archive” to change this, using the “flasher” utility in Jennic Serial Port Tool. After doing this, the dev board starts up in “console debug mode” only with a pushbutton switch combination (hold SW1 and
press Reset SW5).
