Sensei Node Cookbook
This document includes instructions how to install and to run the SENSEI's tmotes software.

Introduction
SENSEI's telosb node software is an applications that brings IPv6 network connectivity on telosb motes. When programmed with SENSEI software nodes can interact on the network like a COaP compliant webserver. Mote's resources can be reached from the web using a normal browser. Interaction with mote's resources is achieved using normal HTTP requests with GET, PUT and POST methods.
Installation steps: Ubuntu 10.04
Setup TinyOS
To install the software on telosb motes need a tinyOS 2.1 working copy see: http://www.tinyos.net for informations on tinyOS installation.
Add the following line to /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://tinyos.stanford.edu/tinyos/dists/ubuntu lucid main
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install tinyos-2.1.1 sudo apt-get install subversion
Set up your .bashrc variables to enable tinyos compilation toolchain:
# add the following line at the end of the file source /opt/tinyos-2.1.1/tinyos.sh
To use tinyOS's java utilities you need sun java6: enable PARTNER repository: menu->system->administration->Software sources
install java6
sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk # setting sun-java as default java provider sudo update-alternatives --set java /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java sudo update-alternatives --set javac /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/javac sudo update-alternatives --set javac /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/java # sudo tos-install-jni
Install SENSEI software
To test the software you will need 3 things:
- one or many nodes equipped with node-tinyos software
- a program called "gateway" that needs to be running on a local machine
- a bridge program that connects your sensei node with your local machine using another mote compiled with BaseStation? App
TODO: insert picture here?
You can checkout a copy of this software at:
$ svn --username [username] co https://svn-batch.grid.pub.ro/svn/Sensei-WP5/ [The above command if ask for some security certificate exchange; Accept it [yes]] [otherwise it prompt for the password for svn access] Enter your password.
Compile and install the bridge
# you have to be root to do this $sudo -i $apt-get install build-essential automake $cd /opt/tinyos-2.1.1/support/sdk/c/sf/ $./bootstrap $./configure $make $cd /opt/tinyos-2.1.1/support/sdk/c/6lowpan/serial_tun/ $make $exit
now you should have a working copy of "serial_tun"
Compile SENSEI gateway
The steps to compile the gateway are quite straightforward
# move to gateway folder $cd gateway/ $sudo apt-get install g++ libssl-dev libxml2-dev # Install socket++ library gateway$ cd lib/Socket-2.3.7 gateway/lib/Sockets-2.3.7$ make clean gateway/lib/Sockets-2.3.7$ make gateway/lib/Sockets-2.3.7$ sudo make install # compile the gateway gateway/lib/Sockets-2.3.7$ cd ../../ gateway$ make
Usage:
Launch the bridge
To test the software you have to equip a node with BaseStation? App that can be found in:
Sensei-WP5$ cd node-tinyos/BaseStation Sensei-WP5/node-tinyos/BaseStation$ make telosb install.0 bsl,/dev/ttyUSB0
Now you can create the Bridge
$ sudo /opt/tinyos-2.1.1/support/sdk/c/6lowpan/serial_tun/serial_tun /dev/ttyUSB0 telosb
Start the Gateway
To start the SENSEI gateway you have to:
Sensei-WP5$ cd gateway # start the gateway Sensei-WP5/gateway$ ./bin/sensei-gateway
Compile SENSEI tinyOS-node
To compile and install the node App:
Sensei-WP5$ cd node-tinyos/node Sensei-WP5/node-tinyos/node$ make install.NODE_ADDRESS bsl,NODE_USB_DEVICE
