README 

Nano USB Programmer

An USB programmer for the Sensinode NanoRouter N600.

Copyright 2007-2008 Sensinode Ltd.

1a - Installation (Linux)

The installation is quite simple but requires the user to obtain the FTDI
development library. The installation also requires root privileges in
some phases (the ldconfig command to be more specific). Running the
Nano_USB_Programmer executable might also require root privileges.

-unpack the Nano_USB_Programmer-v[xxx].zip to a directory
-get the FTDI development library from

        http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX/Linux/libftd2xx0.4.13.tar.gz

-unpack the ftdi archive
-copy the library static_lib/libftd2xx.a.[version] into /usr/lib
-copy the library libftd2xx.so.[version] into /usr/lib
-make a symbolic link to the library, for example:
 ln -s /usr/lib/libftd2xx.so.0.4.13 /usr/lib/libftd2xx.so
-run ldconfig
-copy the header files (*.h) into the nano_usb_programmer/ftdi_linux/ directory
-go to the programmer directory and run make

1b - Installation (Windows/Cygwin)
Installation procedure:
-The FTDI library can be downloaded at: 

		http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/CDM/CDM%202.02.04%20WHQL%20Certified.zip
	
-Copy header files (ftd2xx.h), ftd2xx.lib and ftd2xx.dll to nano_usb_programmer/ftdi_win32
-Copy the ftd2xx.dll to your windows system32 directory

2 - Usage

Usage info for the Nano_USB_Programmer is available with command 
./nano_usb_programmer --help. Note that use might require root/administrator privileges
 depending on system configuration.

3 - Known problems (Linux)

There's one known problem at the moment. The N600 must be unplugged and 
plugged in again after it has been programmed or the MAC address has been 
read from it before it can respond to the programmer again. The reason for
this is the FTDI library is not perfectly integrated with the Linux
serial driver.
