"Pinging" a device is a general networking term. When issuing a ping command, your computer sends an “echo” packet to the computer you specify, and waits for a reply. This allows you to (1) verify that the device is present in the network and (2) measure the latency for the packet to go back and forth. The same functionality is implemented in SmartMesh IP.

  • On the SmartMesh IP Manager, enter the following commands to list all the mote ids
