18. Cygwin Setup for an expert
§ 1. Extract NanoQplus source anywhere
§ 2. Export $CYGWIN_HOME in your profile
- Example : bash shell, cygwin is installed on c:cygwin
• Add the following line in .bash_profile
¢ export $CYGWIN_HOME=/cygdrive/c/cygwin
§ 3-1. Export $NOS_HOME for NanoQplus source directory in your
profile
- Example: bash shell, nos source is in d:nanoqplusnos-2.4.0

19. Connect Sensor Node
§ Connect sensor node to your computer
- Through USB
- Through USB and parallel port(old Nano24)
- Through parallel and serial port (ZigbeX and very old Nano24)
- Through serial port only (old MICAz [MIB510 interface])
§ Windows may request a driver for a sensor node if you
connect it through USB
- Drivers are included in nos2_toolpack_20090312.zip
19
haekim@etri.re.kr

20. USBasp Driver (only for Nano24)

23. Check Parallel Port for Fusing
§ Only for old ZigbeX, old Nano24 sensor nodes
§ My Computer (right click) à Properties à Hardware à
Device Manager
- In this example, lpt1 is the parallel port for fusing
- In case of some of laptop, parallel port is lpt3 even if it is shown as lpt1
on Device Manager.
23
haekim@etri.re.kr

24. Check Serial Port
for UART Comm. and/or Fusing
§ My Computer (right click) à Properties à Hardware à
Device Manager
- In this example, com4 is the serial port for UART comm

25. Run Test Application (1/6)
§ Run cygwin
§ Change directory to test-apps/arch-
test/1_uart_put/
- # cd test-apps/arch-test/1_uart_put/
§ If there is no Makefile in application
directory or Makefile is broken, link it
(again) with $NOS_HOME/Makefile.kconf
- # rm Makefile (if an error is reported.)
- # ln –s $NOS_HOME/Makefile.kconf Makefile
§ Run NanoQplus kernel configuration
- # make menuconfig

small
- Enlarge cygwin window using your mouse.
26
haekim@etri.re.kr

27. Run Test Application (3/6)
§ Select your platform
§ Set Baudrate for UART module
- In this test application, we will use 115200
§ Select modules that you want to use
- In this test application, Basic Functionsà LED module and UART
module
§ Save your kernel configuration
27
haekim@etri.re.kr

28. Run Test Application (4/6)
§ Compile your application
- # make
§ Fusing your application
- # make burn port=[fusing port]
• General
¢ com1, com2, com3, …
• For Nano24 interface2.0
¢ usbasp
• For Nano24 interface1.x or old ZigbeX
¢ lpt1, lpt3
§ Check UART comm port
- Refer page 24.
- You can run “# make motelist” also,
but we do not recommend.
28
haekim@etri.re.kr

29. Run Test Application (5/6)
§ If you use com port for fusing, you may see an error.
- “avrdude” software does not recognize com port over 9.
- You need to change the com port number into 1~9
- My Computer (right click) à Properties à Hardware à Device Manager à
“right click on the device” à Properties
29
haekim@etri.re.kr

30. Run Test Application (6/6)
§ If you use lpt port for fusing, you
may see an error.
- To fix this problem, install “giveio” driver
on your windows
• # install_giveio.bat
• # status_giveio.bat (ß for checking)
- If you see an error again, change the
port number
• lpt1 à lpt3 (refer page 23.)
- or, you need to check Parallel mode of
your computer
• Reboot your computer
• Go setup (normally, press ‘Delete’ key)
• Change Parallel mode into ECP mode
• Save and exit
