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.
