Hi forum,
I'm trying to write an application on the ATZB-900-B0 zigbee unit. This unit contains an ATmega1281 MCU and AT86RF212 transceiver.
We are using the Secure_Remote_Control example from the MAC v2.7.1 software package to try and get the unit to send something.
However, the unmodified example application doesn't even return from the tal_init() function. On closer inspection, the application is locked in this while loop in tal.c on line 386:
>> while (!tal_awake_end_flag);
The application we are using is provided with the MAC v2.7.1 software:
MAC_v_2_7_1\Applications\STB_Examples\Secure_Remote_Control\AT86RF212_ATMEGA1281_RCB_5_3_SENS_TERM_BOARD
The fuses are set to 0xFF9D62.
Could someone please give us a pointer in the right direction, we can't figure out why this is going wrong.
Kindest regards,
Jorn |

| I'm pretty sure that RCB and ZigBit-900 have different pins assigned for the transceiver. |

Thanks for the pointer, what a stupid mistake of us assuming we could use the files from the RCB board.
Does an example application exist for this ZigBit-900 unit?
If not. I think we can modify the RCB board files to work with the Zigbee unit. However we would then need the internal pin connection from the MCU to the transceiver, is this available?
Kindest regards,
Jorn |

| There is no support for ZigBits in MAC (AFAIK), but modifications should be simple enough. Here is the scematic http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6121480/ATZB_24_A2_sch.jpg. |
