RAEMesh2 User Manual Doc.No: Originator: kren Page 6 of 38Data: 2014-3-18 4. Firmware The module is pre-loaded with the bootloader, which supports serial bootloading of firmware update. The module contains RAEMesh application and comply with the RAE System’s RCS protocol. The module also hasbuilt-in RAEMesh Module Command Interface(RMCI). This documentation is focused on the instruction on RMCI interface. The RMCI command interface allows customer to easily access to low level mesh functionality without pain to develop the firmware. The module can be configured to a GTW to hook up to a getaway or just a stand alone regular full function node or a Sleepy reduce function node. Make sure to configure the module to right mode before using. 1) Quick Start UART Via the TXD1 and RXD1 pins the command interpreter can be accessed. The RCM can buffer up to 128 bytes of incoming data in a software FIFO buffer and uses XON/XOFF flow control. See the datasheet of the Atmel ATmega1281 for more information about the build-in UART. Connect Pin5 (TXD1) and Pin7 (RXD1) to the customer board. Use the following settings for serial port.RTR and STD: 19200bps, 8N1. GTW: 38400bps, 8N1. Data Packet RCM will transmit any data in the { }, all data in the {} will be transparently sent out without radio’s interpretation. The maximum data packet is 90 bytes including {}.The data in the {} can be any characters including ‘{‘ ‘}’ ’[‘ ’]’ . The interval between 2 data packets must be >200ms for RTR and GTW.The interval between 2 data packets must be >1s for STD. Wakeup If the radio is set to STD mode, the Wakeup pin Pin19 (PE7) is used to make the radio asleep and wakeup. A constant high on this pin will let the radio go to the sleep mode and a low level signal on this pin will wake-up the radio. The Radio sleep mode is the power save mode so the power consumption can be very low. (<40uA) The Wakeup pin must be held up to 10ms before sending a data packet. Power Ground: Pin1, Pin2 and Pin4. VCC: Pin39, Pin40. 3.0V or 3.3V Radio consumes less than 100mW in normal RX/TX mode. Radio consumes 600mW at TX and 100mW at RX for High power module Heartbeat Connect Pin12 to a LED for heartbeat indicator.

This is always ‘[‘ (0x5B) 1 Length Total length of packet + 0x20, include ‘[‘ and ‘]’. 2 Command Code 0x20 ~ 0xFF. Excluding:0x5A~0x5F and 0x7A~0x7F. 0xF0~0xFF are reserved for common commands. Even for packet sent from SDTE or RDTE to RCM. Odd for packet response from RCM to SDTE or RDTE. 3 Command Data Hex … … N+3 EOP Radio protocol end of packet.. This is always ‘]’(0x5D) The minimum length for one packet is 4 bytes long. The Length is 0x20 based. E.g. the total length of a packet without command data is 4, the Length byte is 0x20 + 4 = 0x24. The SDTE or RDTE always initiate the communication with Radio module (RRCM, SRCM). Radio Module responses to the command it received. The Command Code for packet sent from SDTE or RDTE to Radio module is even, the response from Radio module to SDTE or RDTE is 1 higher than the command code. Command Data can be empty. No command for 0x5A~0x5F and 0x7A~0x7F. A Section 0xF0~0xFF is reserved for common commands such as help, Version etc. Caution: the maximum packet length from SOP to EOP is 64 bytes. Notes:1. All commands response in 50ms2. Check RCM’s information when turn on the radio. Command: 5B 24 60 5D. 3. Wait at least 5s for RCM to finish the initialization after power on. 4. Check the network status of the STD before sending the data for first time. Command: 5B 24 20 5D. 5. It is recommend to add 1s interval between 2 data packets for STD. Check 0x5b 24 27 5d for sending acknowledge with successfully. There is no ACK for transmission failed. 6. For STD, if there is no network, the RCM will automatically wake up every 10 minute to search for a new network. It can be interrupted any time. RCM will keep in asleep if it has joined a network.

For Internal Use Only 5. Bootloader Bootloader is a stand-alone utility consisting of two parts: embedded bootstrap code that should be loaded to the flash memory of a supported MCU and the PC based application that sends data to the embedded bootstrap over serial link. Embedded bootstrap code uses the received data to program the internal flash memory of the MCU. A simple communication protocol is used to ensure proper programming. RAEMeshII have two types of bootloader, one is from Atmel, the other is from REC. When we buy Atmel Zigbit module, it have been programmed Atmel Bootloader in its boot section, it use Motorola S-record (SREC) format files as source images for serial bootloader PC part. ZigBitFwUpgrade.exe or RadioSmart.exe can be PC Utility for upgrade. RAELoader is compliance with 904-E800-310 RAELoader Communication Protocol.doc. RFP format files are supported as source images for the serial bootloader PC part. RAEProgrammer4000.exe can be PC Utility for upgrade. Serial Bootloader is supported on a set of Atmel microcontrollers as shown below Table. MCU Bootloader Modem Type Remark ATmaga1281 Atmel Bootloader RM2400A RM900 Use AVRUsb to embed loader. RAELoader AT91SAM7X256 RAELoader RM900A Use Jlink to embed loader 1) How to distinguish When a RAEMeshII modem is in our hand, how can we distinguish what bootloder they have? This section will teach you. Caution: if module type is RM2400A or RM900, we need use following section to distinguish; if module type is RM900A, all of them use RAELoader_Sam7x, jump to section 2 “How to embed”. a) Just have bootloader If this modem just have bootloader in its boot flash memory and its application flash memory is empty, we should reset modem to distinguish whether it print startup message. When this modem have RAELoader, reset may cause modem toggle LED1 and print startup message as below:
For Internal Use Only If there is not any phenomenon on LED1 and USART after reset modem, this modem embed Atmel bootloader.b) Bootloader and application mixed If modem have bootloader and application in corresponding flash memory, using above method is useless. We can use SET_BOOTLOADER(0x5B 24 56 5D) to distinguish. First, send SET_BOOTLOADER through USART port to modem. Then, if modem reset and print startup menu of application as below, this modem embed Atmel bootloader. If modem print startup menu of RAELoader as below and toggle LED1 very quickly, this modem embed RAELoader.
For Internal Use Only 2) How to embed RAELoader_ATMega1281 If you want to embed bootloader into RM900 or RM2400A which use ATMega1281 as mcu, no matter Atmel bootloader or RAELoader, you should prepare corresponding tool. Software: AVRUSB V2.0.2.231 Hardware: AVRUSB Programmer and RAEMeshII Dev board. Then, operate step by step as below, a) Make sure the correct hardware selected b) Make sure the AVRUSB connected to dev board and board is power on, click “Reset”. If a green label is at bottom of AVRUSB framework, go to next step.
For Internal Use Only c) Erase target MCU d) Read out current fuse setting. If you want to embed Atmel bootloader, please go to Step e). If you want to embed RAELoader, please go to Step f).
For Internal Use Only e) Check the following setting, it’s used for Atmel bootloader
For Internal Use Only f) Check the following settings and make sure as same as showed. Caution: RAELoader ATmega1281’s Boot Block Size should be 4096 bytes.
For Internal Use Only g) Write back Fuse setting if any changes made, make sure program successfully. If you want to embed Atmel bootloader, please go to Step h). If you want to embed RAELoader, please go to Step i).
For Internal Use Only h) Load ATMEL bootloader hex image. Find corresponding path and load *.hex which should be written into boot flash memory. i) Load RAELoader hex image. Find corresponding path and load *.hex which should be written into flash merory.
For Internal Use Only j) Press Device -> Program -> Flash, load bootloader image successfully.
For Internal Use Only 3) How to embed RAELoader_Sam7x If you want to embed bootloader into RM900A which use AT91SAM7X256 as mcu, you should prepare corresponding tool. Software: SEGGER J-Flash ARM V4.20 Hardware: JLINK ARM Programmer and RAEMeshII Dev board. Then, operate step by step as below, a) open J-Flash ARM and press “Alt + F7”, you will see this window:
For Internal Use Only b) click “CPU” and choose AT91SAM7X256 as device.c) put RM900A on dev board and use JLINK to connect with it. d) click “File” ->”Open data file” to choose RAELoader_Sam7x *.hex file.
For Internal Use Only e) click “Target” -> “Erase chip” to erase all flash memory. f) click “Target” -> “Program” to downloader RAELoader hex file into mcu.
For Internal Use Only g) click “Target” -> “Start application” to make mcu run. h) Then, embed RAELoader_Sam7x is successful, go to Section4. 4) Firmware Upgrade User should use different utility to upgrade RAEMeshII application firmware. a) Using Atmel bootloader to upgrade 1. Select firmware file, *.srec 2. Select correct com port 3. Click “Program”, then Reset RAEMesh2 module in 30 seconds Waiting for program successful.
For Internal Use Only b) Using RAELoader to upgrade 1. Use RMCI command to access RAELoader If modem run app firmware, we can use RMCI command, 0x5b 24 56 5d, to access RAELoader for firmware upgrade. 2. Use jumper to access RAELoader We can use hardware jumper to access RAELoader. First, jump specified pin to ground; second, press reset button on evaluation board to reset modem; then modem access into RAELoader.
For Internal Use Only Now, we have two type of evaluation board, please use following method for loader jumper. Old evaluation board setup, it is the same with how to set ZcoRAE-M3 into bootloader. New evaluation board setup
For Internal Use Only 3. RAELoader Indication RAELoader use LEDs blink and toggle on M3 adapter or evaluation board to tell user the situation of loader. When modem access into RAELoader, one LED, which lable is LED2 on M3 adapter, will blink continuously. If start to upgrade firmware, two LEDs on evaluation board will blink continuously and alternately. 4. Upgrade When modem is in RAELoader, we use RAEProgrammer4000 to upgrade firmware, detail please refer to user guide of RAEProgrammer4000. 5. Quit if modem access into RAELoader using RMCI command, reset or upgrade successfully can make modem out.
