Telos-b

By manual we learned how to design an application to read data from a telos-b, WSN module. The application was designed in java and we also had to add some extensions.

The telos-b modules can send different types of information. Some types are temperature and humidity. Our extension made a difference between these different types of information.

A second extension we made was the selection of the COM-port. In the original program you had to change the COM-port where the TinyOS module was connected with by hand in the code. Hard-coding is never a good solution, definitely to the enduser.

A problem we encountered during tests was the scanning of motes we didn't want to scan. This gave us the idea for our last extension, a filter to select different Mote-ID's.
