Using Contiki UDP client to send ON/OFF command to remote UDP server to toggle LED on CC13xx/CC26xx.

The following steps show you how to revise Contiki UDP client/server examples to allow you send UART ON/OFF command to UDP client, UDP client sends ON/OFF command over the air to UDP server, and UDP server toggles red LED. The following tests are done using two LAUNCHXL-CC1310.

1. Revise the following red lines in udp-client.c
...
#include "net/ip/uip-udp-packet.h"
#include "sys/ctimer.h"
#include "dev/leds.h"
#ifdef WITH_COMPOWER

static void
send_packet(void *ptr)

#endif /* SERVER_REPLY */

  seq_id++;
  PRINTF("CMD:%s send to %d SEQ_ID:%d\n",cmd,
         server_ipaddr.u8[sizeof(server_ipaddr.u8) - 1], seq_id);
  sprintf(buf, "%s from the client SEQ_ID:%d ",cmd, seq_id);  uip_udp_packet_sendto(client_conn, buf, strlen(buf),
                        &server_ipaddr, UIP_HTONS(UDP_SERVER_PORT));
}

#endif

  etimer_set(&periodic, SEND_INTERVAL);
  while(1) {

2. Build udp-client.bin by "make TARGET=srf06-cc26xx BOARD=launchpad/cc1310 udp-client.bin" and download udp-client.bin to one LAUNCHXL-CC1310.


3. Revise the following red lines in udp-server.c
...
#define DEBUG DEBUG_PRINT
#include "net/ip/uip-debug.h"
#include "dev/leds.h"

#define UIP_IP_BUF   ((struct uip_ip_hdr *)&uip_buf[UIP_LLH_LEN])
...
/*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
static void
tcpip_handler(void)
{
  char *appdata;

  if(uip_newdata()) {
    appdata = (char *)uip_appdata;
    appdata[uip_datalen()] = 0;
    PRINTF("DATA recv '%s' from ", appdata);
    if(appdata[0]==0x4F && appdata[1]==0x4E ){
        leds_on(LEDS_RED);
    }
    if(appdata[0]==0x4F && appdata[1]==0x46 && appdata[2]==0x46){
        leds_off(LEDS_RED);
    }   
    PRINTF("%d",
           UIP_IP_BUF->srcipaddr.u8[sizeof(UIP_IP_BUF->srcipaddr.u8) - 1]);
    PRINTF("\n");
#if SERVER_REPLY
    PRINTF("DATA sending reply\n");
    uip_ipaddr_copy(&server_conn->ripaddr, &UIP_IP_BUF->srcipaddr);
    uip_udp_packet_send(server_conn, "Reply", sizeof("Reply"));
    uip_create_unspecified(&server_conn->ripaddr);
#endif
  }
}
/*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
...


4. Build udp-server.bin by "make TARGET=srf06-cc26xx BOARD=launchpad/cc1310 udp-server.bin" and download udp-server.bin to another LAUNCHXL-CC1310.

5. Start UDP server on one LAUNCHXL-CC1310 running udp-server.bin and start UDP client on another LAUNCHXL-CC1310 running udp-client.bin.

  

6. You can enter "ON" and "CTRL+Enter" to send ON command with end character "0x0A" to COM port of LAUNCHXL-CC1310 running UDP client and you will see red led is turned ON on another LAUNCHXL-CC1310 running UDP server.

7. You can enter "OFF" and "CTRL+Enter" to send OFF command with end character "0x0A" to COM port of LAUNCHXL-CC1310 running UDP client and you will see red led is turned OFF on another LAUNCHXL-CC1310 running UDP server.
