.TH tos-mviz 1 "Oct 24, 2006" .LO 1 .SH NAME tos-mviz - Launch MViz, the TinyOS network visualizer .SH SYNOPSIS \fBtos-mviz\fR [\fB-comm\fR \fIserial-source\fR] \fImig-class\fR [\fImig-class]... .SH DESCRIPTION \fBtos-mviz\fR launches MViz, the TinyOS network visualizer. MViz is a replacement for the Surge application of earlier TinyOS versions. MViz reads packets from a packet source and displays their data in a GUI. MViz takes the class names of mig-generated Java classes as parameters; it parses these packets and displays their fields. For MViz to be able to understand a mig packet, it must have an \fIorigin\fR field which denotes which node the data is from. Please see TinyOS tutorial 12: MViz, for more detail.
