The

 abstracts the serial API of SmartMesh devices into a set of functions your application can call.

• To issue to a command to a device over its serial API, your application calls the corresponding function. The

   handles formatting serial frames and HDLC framing, as well as matching commands and responses.

• Notifications received from the device result in a callback function being called. The

   handles parsing the serial notification frames and sending a serial API acknowledgement to the device when necessary.

The 

 is designed with the following constraints in mind:

• It is written in pure C. In particular, no hardware-specific code is present in the 

  , allowing it to be used as-is in any C-based platforms. To use the 

   on your platform, you have to implement a handful of functions (see Porting).

• It is not tied to any operating system. The 

   only deals with formatting and parsing serial frames. It can be used as-is in single threaded environments (see for example the Arduino Example Applications section). If you are operating in a multi-threaded environment (e.g. you are using a Real-Time Operating System), you can use locking functions (see the Porting section).

That repository contains the following directories:

• the sm_clib/ directory contains the library itself, as a collection of headers (.h) and source code files (.c):

  • main modules:
    
    

    • dn_ipmg.c implements the SmartMesh IP Manager serial API.

    • dn_ipmt.c implements the SmartMesh IP Mote serial API.

    • dn_whmt.c implements the SmartMesh WirelessHART Mote serial API.

  • helper modules:

    • dn_serial_mg.c implements low-level serial formatting for communicating with the SmartMesh IP Manager.

    • dn_serial_mt.c implements low-level serial formatting for communicating with the SmartMesh IP Mote and SmartMesh WirelessHART mote.

    • dn_hdlc.c implements HDLC framing over a serial connection, following RFC1662.

  • header files for porting:

    • dn_endianness.h contains the prototypes of the functions you need to implement to support different endianness.

    • dn_lock.h contains the prototypes of the functions you need to implement to support a multi-threaded environment.

    • dn_uart.h contains the prototypes of the functions you need to allow the

       to communicate over your (micro-)processor's serial port.

• the examples/ directory contains sample applications which use the

  . These examples are built for the Arduino Due.

  • The arduino/Libraries/ directory contains the libraries used by the sample applications.

  • The arduino/MoteBlink/ directory contains the MoteBlink sample application.

  • The arduino/Triangle2manager/ directory contains the Triangle2manager sample application.
