yes it's the case, when I stop the coordinator, the LED blinking
Then check that CS_UID parameter is different on all devices. |

CS_UID = 0x4LL for Zigbit
CS_UID = 0x2LL for Raven End-Device
CS_UID = 0x0LL for coordinator |

I have clear all test and download a new bitcloud package to restart from scratch.
now it's working !
the LED is "Off" when the module joining network but my module appearing in wsndemo.
Alexru, thanks a lot for your help !!

| Hey guys! I`ve got a question. I have a network 1 coordinator and 1 end-device. And if i set end-device to the sleep mode how can I wake it up? I use serial net to manage my network. Duty cycle on end device sleep/active what I put into by command at+wpwr is 6000,0 what means it`s always active until i enter command wsleep and it is in sleep mode by 10 minutes. Can I wake it up before this 10 minutes I mean Can I wake it up by using any ping from coordinator or other dates from coordinator or in other way?? Anyone knows how to measure wake-up time using scope or other stuff? Thanks in advance. |

No, that's the point of sleeping. Bur you can wake up device by asserting DTR pin.

Depends on what you need it for. One way is to measure power consumption. |

| Thank You Alex for Your help. Now I decided to test a DTR line. Normally I have PCB where I use only TX and RX of RS232. It is enough only to send a command and managing of nodes. Now I connect in addition line from dtr ft232 to pin 37 of my atzb-24-a2 but it doesn`t work. Do I need other lines of rs232 to make dtr working right?? Dtr is active low according to serialnet reference manual and is setting by at&d1 command and i set that. I`ve tried just to connect pin 37 of module to ground to force wake-up after sleeping node but it doesn`t wake up. How it should looks like? Any ideas?? Regards Lukas |

| Connecting only DTR pin should be enough. Can you post complete list of command you enter on both devices? |

my settings
Coordinator
ATX
at +GSN=1
at+WPANID=1620
at+WCHMASK=00000800
at+WROLE=0
at+WSRC=0
at+WJOIN
at+WAUTONET=1
End device
atx
at +GSN=2
at+WPANID=1620
at+WCHMASK=00000800
at+WROLE=2
at+WSRC=2
at+wpwr= 6000,0 (10 minutes sleep if put at+wsleep, normally always active)
at&d1
at+WAUTONET=1
at+WJOIN
And when network is established i make on enddevice sleep mode using a command at+wsleep and I can`t wake it up even when I connect dtr pin to ground or VCC. |

One thing I see is that you need to have the same settings for +wpwr on both C and ED (see manual for explanations). But this is not connected to a problem at hand.
I'll check this and write back. |

| Other thing is that I connect with my module using a ft232rl there is a line like dtr so should I connect directly dtr from ft232 to pin of my atmel 37?? Sometimes it is properly to connect Capacitor to eliminate a constant-voltage component like here http://electronics-diy.com/electronic_s ... php?id=923 What do You think? But anyway I was testing pin 37 by connecting that directly to ground and VCC. |

I can't make it work either, maybe something is wrong there, I've never used this feature nor I've ever seen how it works.
Contact avr@atmel.com, they might know better. |

| Now in my case it works but only manually, connecting a pin 37 to ground.( earlier it was just not visible, break- not connected pin with pad on board) but dtr still doesn`t work. I will try to get information from atmel. If i get know sth i would inform You as well. Thank You Alex. |

So does it work or does not?
I've spoken to a FAE and he confirmed that DTR wakeup works. I was checking it on ZigBit mounted on MeshBean and there is an error on the board that prevents it from working. But it should work on a standalone ZigBit module. |

Hi,
I have some problems, I think is something wrong with my application which is uploaded to the modules. I made myself boards with leds,sliders and USB<->RS232 converter.I uploaded blink sample application with added in configurationfile CS_UID ones 0x1ll and second 0x2ll. And modules don't talk together-> they blink asynchronous.Should I do something more? I don't know what to do now. I tried with many configurations
->changed device type , short adres scholastic and different static also in ConfigServer.h.
Anyone knows what I do wrong?
Regards,
Qbo
*EDIT
I won't go further with my own application if I won't be sure if is everything ok with my hardware. |

Well, Blink sample application does exactly what name says, it blinks without starting a network 
Try other applications, they actually do something useful with RF-part. |

| In the begging I though it is something wrong with RF and I checked on scope CPU_CLOCK and its is 8MHz like in configuration file. I tried it compile the files with IAR also. Let me add that layout of the board don't have ground plane on top and bottom under antennas. Now I understand that CS_UID isn't a reason because there is no network at all. I can't check if they really transmit on analyzer because it's DSSS modulation. Could you tell me if there is any reason why this application don't work? |

| Again, Blink does not transmit because it should not. It is written to blink LEDs. Take LowPower application, for example. |

Aha, I understood from BitCloud documentation that they should blink synchronously with certain period.. I lost week trying launch this I will now start with low power application.
Thanks Alex for help!
