Mesh Enabled Architecture

Geo-Location Reference Guide
Overview

The Mesh Sensor Monitor (MSM) application provides an interface that allows a user/operator to send or receive data from a remote wireless sensor node within a Mesh Enabled Architecture (MEA™) network. Sensor devices can be connected to the MEA wireless device via an RS-232 or an RS-485 interface. Mesh Sensor Monitor is designed as a debug tool for sensor network development, sensor/network integration, or third party development of sensor management applications. A Mesh Sensor API is available for third party development of custom sensor management applications.

Although MSM is used as the means for communicating directly with remote sensor devices, the MeshManager™ suite of Element Management software applications must be used to configure the serial interface on the MEA hardware (MWR6300/WSM6300). Configurable parameters include baud rate, packetization parameters (time interval, sync character, number of characters), GPIO configuration (input/output) and server IP address (the IP address of the host executing the MSM application).
