extract TWELITE STAGE SDK

1. Download the TWELITE STAGE SDK for your system (Windows, macOS, Linux, etc.).

2. Extract the downloaded archive file (e.g. ZIP). The folder name of each level of the destination folder should not contain any characters other than one-byte numbers 0..9, one-byte alphabets a..zA..Z, and some symbols -_. . It must not contain spaces, Kanji characters, Hiragana characters, etc. Example(Windows): × C:\work\作業\ × C:\Users\user1\work dir\ 〇 C:\Work\Work1

3. Check the folder after expansion. If you extract on C:\Work, the folder name will be something like C:\Work\MWSTAGE, but your extractor may create a folder with the archive file name. Rename or move the folder as needed.

In the text, the expanded folder (e.g. C:\WorkMWSTAGE )} may be written as {MWSTAGE installation}.

Settings unique to each system, etc.

Windows macOS Linux RasPi

This is a simple terminal that supports ANSI escape sequences (partial) and performs I/O directly with the TWELITE radio microcontroller.

Windows macOS Linux RasPi

Interprets 0x81 command of App_Twelite (standard app).

The TWELITE wireless microcontroller is written with App_Twelite (standard app) or App_Wings, and the serial message from the communication partner is displayed before it is used.

The communication partner is App_Twelite (standard app), and when it receives a standard app button or analog input status message (0x81 message), its contents are interpreted and displayed by mwm5's parser library.

Windows macOS Linux RasPi

Used for the purpose of referencing sample data from and .

CUE mode, MOT mode, and 2525 FIFO mode.

When the number of consecutive samples exceeds a certain number (analysis window), the XYZ axis is displayed with frequency analysis. However, in 2525 FIFO mode, it is always assumed to be continuous.

When a packet is explicitly delimited (when more than 3 seconds have elapsed since the previous packet, every packet in CUE mode, or when the sequence number of packets becomes discontinuous in MOT mode), a dummy of 4 samples is (When more than 3 seconds have elapsed since the last packet.

Data is stored for up to 4 nodes in order of arrival first.

Typical CUE Interactive settings mode settings

• measure continuously at about 25 Hz. (Transmit Interval: 0, Sensor Parameter: 03000000)

• measure continuously at about 50 Hz. (Transmit Interval: 0, Sensor Parameter: 03000100)

• measure continuously at about 100 Hz. (Transmit Interval: 0, Sensor Parameter: 03000200)

• measure 128 samples at about 100Hz about every 10 seconds. (Transmit Interval: 10, Sensor Parameter: 03000208)

• measure 256 samples at about 100Hz about every 10 seconds. (Transmit Interval: 10, Sensor Parameter: 03000210)

• measure 64 samples at about 50Hz every 10 seconds. (Transmit Interval: 10, Sensor Parameter: 03000104)

• measure 128 samples at about 200Hz about every 10 seconds. (Transmit Interval: 10, Sensor Parameter: 03000308)

Operation

Sample Rate Estimation

The sampling rate is calculated from the packet reception time. Since the reception time of multiple past samples is averaged to obtain one sample, the error will be larger if there are packet skips, etc.

After the sample rate is estimated, the graph display scrolls smoothly.

The timestamp of the related log record (T_SMPL) is also estimated in the same way, and the timestamp is after the time of packet acquisition.

Open at startup of CUE graph mode.

Specify 31 in [STAGE Common Settings→Designate Startup Application].

Log Output (Data Save)

By clicking the [Data Save] button, data for up to 512 samples will be output starting from the display position on the screen (rightmost sample). Note that the most recent sample comes last, so there may be no data at the beginning.

• The log file name is log folder/accel_{serial number}_{time stamp}.csv.

• The most recent sample on the right end is the 512th data (at the end of the file).

• When frequency analysis is performed, the number of frequency analysis samples is the number of frequency analysis samples from the last sample.

• The frequency analysis results are added to the line where the sample subject to frequency analysis is recorded (in the case of 64 samples, the 32nd line from the 449th sample is the result, from DC component to high frequency component).

Additional Information

Log output (auto save)

When this screen is opened and data is entered, a log file is automatically output.

• The log file name is log folder/accel_{serial number}_{time stamp}.csv.

• While the screen is open, the file is being written out. It may not be opened for reading, or even if it is opened, all data may not be read.

Additional Information

• : Interpret packets from TWELITE CUE and display them in a simplified manner

• : Interpret packets from TWELITE ARIA and display them in a simplified manner

• : Simple monitor compatible with many kinds of TWELITE wireless packets

command line arguments

Command line arguments provides some minor settings of TWELITE Stage.

an ini file.

The ini file is used to set some fundamental settings of TWELITE STAGE (like reference MWSDK folder).

The ini file name is {basename of TWELITE STAGE app executable} + .ini, which is normally TWELITE_Stage.ini.

Syntax

• The ini file is described as a plain text file.

• A key and value is stored in a single line separated with = character (e.g. KEY=value).

• A key value string shall begin with line head. (No spaces or other character allowed before a key string.)

• No space allowed between the = character.

• Comment line is started from ; or # characacter.

Settings

different settings of TWELITE STAGE App.

If you need to different setting type of TWELITE STAGE App, just copy an executable at same folder of the original TWELITE_Stage executable.

e.g. if you needs English interface vesion, you just copy TWELITE_Stage.exe(Note: .exe is suffix of Windows executable) to TWELITE_Stage_en.exe and create .ini file with LANG=en setting.

Windows macOS Linux RasPi

The viewers display information from the TWELITE wireless microcontroller connected via the serial port and send commands (commands) to the contrary.

Each viewer is a relatively small program that also serves as an example of how to use the mwm5 library.

Windows/Mac/Linux/RaspberryPi(X11)

TWELITE STAGE is an application that is launched from the console screen (command line). Information is output to both the console screen and the window screen.

The console screen outputs the same information as the terminal.

RaspberryPi(FB)

The screen is displayed on a framebuffer without X11. The console screen is not normally displayed (when started from a shell screen on the framebuffer).

Interpret messages from TWELITE CUE.

TWELITE CUE

The default setting (CUE mode) of TWELITE CUE wakes up due to several factors and transmits various information after waking up while driving intermittently using sleep, which can be operated even with coin cell batteries.

wakeup factors

• Timer wake-up (periodic wake-up by set value)

• Wake-up by acceleration detection

• Wake-up by magnetic sensor (when a magnet is detected approaching)

Transmission data

• Detection event (see below)

• Module power supply voltage

• Magnetic sensor detection value

• Acceleration data

Packet

Displays basic packet information.

Events

The default output of TWELITE CUE is always as an acceleration event. Regardless of the wake-up factor, a fixed number of samples of acceleration is measured after wake-up. The event corresponding to the result of this acceleration is sent.

Voltage

Supply voltage of the module[mV].

Magnet

Displays detected or undetected magnet poles.

Acceleration

Displays acceleration measured after waking up.

Screen examples

Windows macOS Linux RasPi

Glancer is an English word for a person who glances, and it is a simple display of information in incoming messages. TWELITE Radio App_Wings is written in the microcontroller, and the communication partner (App_Twelite, TWELITE PAL, ...) is set to the same channel as the application ID. Application ID and CHANNEL can be mixed as long as they match).

The screen consists of two types of screens.

List view

Enumerates information from the communication partner. The contents displayed are (message type, logical ID, serial ID, LQI(Lq), supply voltage (if included in the information), and reception time).

Selection view

This screen is accessed by moving an item in the list view and making a selection when the item is highlighted. Displays information on specific communication partners in order of arrival.

The number of packets received and the average LQI value since the selection is made are displayed.

Transition to Interactive settings mode and operation.

This screen behaves much the same as the terminal, but has additional features specific to Interactive settings mode, such as operation for Interactive mode transitions and detection of leaving.

• The TWELITE radio module to be connected must have furware written for Interactive settings mode.

• Since the system operates using input/output from the TWELITE radio microcontroller, it may not be possible to transition to or leave Interactive settings mode as expected, for example, if garbled characters or other problems occur in serial communication.

• Mouse operation is not supported. Keyboard operation (using the cursor up/down) is supported.
