To run the demo, both nodes must be configured to use the same RF transceiver with the same settings and the same wireless protocol. However, both nodes do not have to be the same demo board.
To compile the demo, following working environment must be established:
• PICDEM Z, PIC18 Explorer and 8-bit Wireless Development Kit Configuration: C18 v3.20 or higher
• Explorer 16 Configuration: C30 v3.10 or higher for PIC24 and dsPIC33; C32 v1.02 or higher for PIC32.
Compile and program the demo code into the hardware platform. For more help on how to compile and program projects, please refer to the MPLAB® IDE help available through the help menu of MPLAB IDE (Help->Topics…->MPLAB IDE).
By default, there are three projects provided for each demo. They are for PIC18, PIC24 and PIC32 MCUs respectively. Each demo is initially configured to use MRF24J40 RF transceiver to run MiWi™ P2P stack. With minor configuration modification, user can compile and run the demo on any Microchip RF transceivers, any Microchip proprietary wireless protocols on any supported standard demo boards. This section demonstrates how to migrate the demo among all supported options.
