Lab 09. Join duty cycle
Expected completion time of this lab: 30 min.
Crash-course (given by your instructor)
What is the join duty cycle?
- Switch off all the motes, except the one connected to your computer.
You can set its join duty cycle (between 0 and 255) by entering the following command:
> mset joindc <duty_cycle>
You can read the join duty cycle by entering the following command:
> mget joindc
Fill in the table below. For each measurement:
change the join duty cycle on the mote
switch the mote off
power-cycle the manager
switch the mote on and start a stopwatch
stop the stopwatch when both LEDs are on
Plot the average join time as a function of the join duty cycle:
