5 Power Management Application Bench Mark

The power management application is released as a stand-alone CC3200 application, which is inserted within the CC3200 SDK folder. For the CC3100 the power management application is released as a stand-alone CC3100 application, which is integrated within the CC3100 SDK folder during installation. Import it into your environment (code composer /IAR), as any other project described in the Getting Started User's Guide for the device-specific documents.

The application requires some preliminary action to be taken/defined within the code. The next values need to be defined; the pre-define lines are already in the code, just fill the relevant values:

  • IP_ADDR – Destination IP address
  • MY_IP_ADDRESS – The device IP address
  • GW_IP_ADDRESS – The gateway IP address
  • NO_OF_PACKETS – The number of packets to be transmitted
  • NUM_OF_CYC – defines how many times to repeat current use case
  • BUF_SIZE - defines the packet data size
  • INTERACTIVE – defines if we use the simple mode where small amount configuration/settings can be set interactively through sets of menus displayed on the terminal screen. The value 1 for this define (this is the default) will set the application to simple/interactive mode while 0 to the advanced one.

Moreover, there is also a need for a destination peer. A python script that implements TCP/UDP client or server is a simple solution for such peer. There are also good examples of DHCP server PC application that can be found in the internet, that the user can use.
