hello,

I am trying to run in shimmer3 an older program that I used with shimmer2r
but I having some troubles to install it

first, is there a platform file of shimmer3 to compile on tinyos?
second, can the older programs (blink, basestation, ...) be installed on
shimmer3?
third, when i try to install blink on shimmer3 using the command for
shimmer2r a got the next message "bootstrap loader synchronization error",
is there a difference between version 2r docks and version 3?

Cheers,

Hi Valeria,


Shimmer3 is not currently supported in TinyOS (as far as I'm aware). This
may come in time but I don't know of anybody that is currently working on
this right now. Instead for example code for the shimmer3 take a look here:
https://github.com/ShimmerResearch/shimmer3. Currently there is only a
single example application available (albeit a fairly extensive example)
but more will be available there soon.

Shimmer2r (or shimmer2 or shimmer) images cannot be loaded on the shimmer3.
Or at least, if they are loaded on they won't work. Shimmer3 uses a newer
MSP430 than that used on previous shimmer generations. But then, equally, a
shimmer2 image won't work correctly if loaded on a shimmer2r either.

Your shimmer2r dock should work fine with a shimmer3. But you will need a
different application on the PC side, which you can download from the
shimmersensing.com website.

Mike
