NeoMesh 2 Click

NeoMesh 2 Click is a compact add-on board with a low-power, long-range transceiver, ideal for Mesh wireless networking. This board features the NC2400, a wireless Mesh network module from NeoCortec. With an additional antenna that MikroE offers connected to the module’s u.Fl connector, you can create a fully functional wireless Mesh network node that will work in the Sub-GHz frequency band of 2.4GHz. The module has a generic application layer that can be configured to suit applications.

Click library

  • Author : Stefan Filipovic
  • Date : Sep 2023.
  • Type : UART type

Software Support

We provide a library for the NeoMesh 2 Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.

Package can be downloaded/installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Library Description

This library contains API for NeoMesh 2 Click driver.

Standard key functions :

  • neomesh2_cfg_setup Config Object Initialization function.
void neomesh2_cfg_setup ( neomesh2_cfg_t *cfg );
  • neomesh2_init Initialization function.
err_t neomesh2_init ( neomesh2_t *ctx, neomesh2_cfg_t *cfg );

Example key functions :

  • neomesh2_send_aapi_frame This function sends a desired AAPI frame by using UART serial interface.
err_t neomesh2_send_aapi_frame ( neomesh2_t *ctx, neomesh2_aapi_frame_t *frame );
  • neomesh2_read_aapi_frame This function reads an AAPI frame by using UART serial interface.
err_t neomesh2_read_aapi_frame ( neomesh2_t *ctx, neomesh2_aapi_frame_t *frame );
  • neomesh2_send_sapi_frame This function sends a desired SAPI frame by using UART serial interface.
err_t neomesh2_send_sapi_frame ( neomesh2_t *ctx, neomesh2_sapi_frame_t *frame );

Example Description

This example demonstrates the use of NeoMesh 2 Click board by showing the communication between the two Click boards.

The demo application is composed of two sections :

Application Init

Initializes the driver and configures the Click board for the selected application mode.

void application_init ( void )
{
    log_cfg_t log_cfg;  /**< Logger config object. */
    neomesh2_cfg_t neomesh2_cfg;  /**< Click config object. */

    /** 
     * Logger initialization.
     * Default baud rate: 115200
     * Default log level: LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG
     * @note If USB_UART_RX and USB_UART_TX 
     * are defined as HAL_PIN_NC, you will 
     * need to define them manually for log to work. 
     * See @b LOG_MAP_USB_UART macro definition for detailed explanation.

Application Task

One Click board should be set to originator mode and the others to receiver 1 or 2. If the SINGLE_RECEIVER_MODE is enabled, the originator device sends a desired message to RECEIVER_1 node and waits for an acknowledge response, otherwise it sends the same message to both RECEIVER_1 and RECEIVER_2 nodes. The receiver devices reads and parses all incoming AAPI frames and displays them on the USB UART.

}

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Other Mikroe Libraries used in the example:

  • MikroSDK.Board
  • MikroSDK.Log
  • Click.NeoMesh2

Additional notes and informations

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART Click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. UART terminal is available in all MikroElektronika compilers.
