-<h1>2 Quick Start</h1>
+<h1>2 Tools Installation</h1>
+<p>Deluge T2 requires a few Python scripts that not yet included in the
+official <code class=verbatim>tinyos-tools</code> RPM package. On the CVS, the scripts are
+located in <code class=verbatim>tinyos-2.x/tools/tinyos/misc</code>. The steps to install
+them are the following:</p>
+<p>
+</p>
+<pre class=verbatim> % cd $TOSROOT
+ % ./Bootstrap
+ ...
+ % ./configure
+ ...
+ % cd tinyos/misc
+ % make ; make install
+ ...
+</pre><p></p>
+<p>
+By default, the files will be installed in <code class=verbatim>/usr/local/bin</code>. If
+desired, the <code class=verbatim>--prefix</code> parameter from <code class=verbatim>configure</code> can be
+used to indicate a different path. </p>

Then, we run the <code class=verbatim>burn</code> script provided in <code class=verbatim>tinyos-2.x/apps/tests/deluge/Blink</code>.
For example,
</p>
-<pre class=verbatim> % ./burn /dev/ttyUSB0
+<pre class=verbatim> % ./burn /dev/ttyUSB0 telosb
</pre><p>
This <code class=verbatim>burn</code> script programs the directly-connected mote with one
version of Blink. Then, it injects and reprograms the mote with another
versioning information. The script to interface with the mote is
provided in <code class=verbatim>tinyos-2.x/tools/tinyos/misc</code>. For example,
</p>
-<pre class=verbatim> % tos-deluge /dev/ttyUSB0 -p 0
+<pre class=verbatim> % tos-deluge /dev/ttyUSB0 telosb -p 0
</pre><p>
You should see something similar to the output below.

+<h2>4.1 Setting Up the Motes</h2>
<p>We first install both TOSBoot and a program that runs Deluge T2. For
simplicity, we use the golden image as the program. The golden image is
provided in <code class=verbatim>tinyos-2.x/apps/tests/deluge/GoldenImage</code>, and it does
user commands from the serial port. Normally, only one mote in the
network needs to be the base station, and other motes are reprogrammed
over-the-air. If error occurs when running the command above, you might

Deluge T2 makes sure the mote ID remain persistent over image
reprogramming. You can test the installation by interacting with the
mote through <code class=verbatim>tos-deluge</code>.</p>

<p>Before a program image is disseminated in the network, we need to first
inject it to the base station. For example,
</p>
-<pre class=verbatim> % tos-deluge /dev/ttyUSB0 -i 1 apps/Blink/build/telosb/tos_image.xml
+<pre class=verbatim> % tos-deluge /dev/ttyUSB0 telosb -i 1 apps/Blink/build/telosb/tos_image.xml

+<h2>4.4 Reprogramming with New Image</h2>
<p>After you decide which program image you want to reprogram, you can
first test on the base station by issuing the reboot command. For
example,
</p>
-<pre class=verbatim> % tos-deluge /dev/ttyUSB0 -r 1
+<pre class=verbatim> % tos-deluge /dev/ttyUSB0 telosb -r 1
</pre><p>
After a few moments, the mote will begin quickly flashing the LEDs to
signify the reprogramming process.</p>
Now, you can have the base station disseminate a program image to the rest of
the network. For example,
</p>
-<pre class=verbatim> % tos-deluge /dev/ttyUSB0 -d 1
+<pre class=verbatim> % tos-deluge /dev/ttyUSB0 telosb -d 1
</pre><p>
This command instructs the base station to notify the whole network of
the availablility of a new program image. This notification is currently
over-the-air, each node automatically reboots and reprograms itself.</p>

volume on the mote. All versioning information is kept on the mote, so
no state is stored on the PC.</p>
