Viewing Traces from the WICED Smart Tag
Traces from the application can be viewed by configuring the WICED Smart tag to route traces to the HCI UART,
and then to the COM port of the platform.
To view the traces:
1.
In WICED Smart IDE, in the
Project Explorer pane
(left side of the IDE, see the screenshot on page 13 ),
in the
WICED-Smart folder
, locate and open the
WICED-Smart-SDK\Wiced-Smart\spar\common\sparinit.c file
.
2.
Make sure that the application_setup function includes the following line:
BLE_APP_ENABLE_TRACING_ON_HCI_UART();
3.
Compile and download the application to the WICED Smart tag as described in “Build and Load a Sample
Application” on page 13 .
4.
Wait for the
Build Finished
message to display in the console window.
5.
Locate the mini-switch (
SW4
) on the WICED Smart tag, and set DIP switch 2 to the OFF position. The final
switch settings of mini-switch
SW4
are: 1 = ON, 2 = OFF, and 3 through 8 = ON.
