Set the Logical Device type to Coordinator and router dynamically using Z-Stack on CC2538DK

Apply the following steps to SampleLight coordinator project and I can set the Logical Device type to Coordinator and router at run time.

1. Add "uint8 dev_type=0;" as global variable in ZDApp.c.

2. Add the red part in ZDAppDetermineDeviceType.

void ZDAppDetermineDeviceType( void )
{
  if (dev_type==0)
    zgDeviceLogicalType = ZG_DEVICETYPE_COORDINATOR;
  else if(dev_type==1)
    zgDeviceLogicalType = ZG_DEVICETYPE_ROUTER;

  
  if ( zgDeviceLogicalType ==ZG_DEVICETYPE_COORDINATOR )
  {
    devStartMode = MODE_HARD;     // Start as a coordinator
    ZDO_Config_Node_Descriptor.LogicalType = NODETYPE_COORDINATOR;
  }
  else
  ...

3. Revise the red part in ZDAppCheckForHoldKey.

void ZDAppCheckForHoldKey( void )
{
#if (defined HAL_KEY) && (HAL_KEY == TRUE)

  // Get Keypad directly to see if a HOLD is needed
  zdappHoldKeys = HalKeyRead();

  // Hold down the SW_BYPASS_START key (see OnBoard.h)
  // while booting to avoid starting up the device.
  if ( zdappHoldKeys == SW_BYPASS_START )
  {
    // Change the device state to HOLD on start up
    //devState = DEV_HOLD;
    dev_type=1;

  }
#endif // HAL_KEY
}
4. Revise the red part in ZGlobals.h

extern uint8 dev_type;
 
/*********************************************************************
 * MACROS
 */
#if defined( BUILD_ALL_DEVICES ) && !defined( ZSTACK_DEVICE_BUILD )
  #define ZSTACK_DEVICE_BUILD  (DEVICE_BUILD_COORDINATOR | DEVICE_BUILD_ROUTER | DEVICE_BUILD_ENDDEVICE)
#endif

// Setup to work with the existing (old) compile flags
#if 0
#if !defined ( ZSTACK_DEVICE_BUILD )
  #if defined ( ZDO_COORDINATOR )
    #define ZSTACK_DEVICE_BUILD  (DEVICE_BUILD_COORDINATOR)
  #elif defined ( RTR_NWK )
    #define ZSTACK_DEVICE_BUILD  (DEVICE_BUILD_ROUTER)
  #else
    #define ZSTACK_DEVICE_BUILD  (DEVICE_BUILD_ENDDEVICE)
  #endif
#endif
#else
#define ZSTACK_DEVICE_BUILD  (dev_type+1)
#endif

5. Compile the code and download it to CC2538DK. If I turn on CC2538DK without pressing any button, it will become ZC. If I turn on CC2538DK with UP key pressed, it will become ZR.

  1. Hello,
    my cc2538 coordinator is to receive the data from the enddevice.The data needs to sent without pressing the keys from enddevice(it is standalone)
    EX:Helloworld Example message is sent from the enddevice to coordiantor without pressing the keys
