Original Question: I have WSN Bunch version kit, Can this be used for AD6LoWPAN also? by NagarjunaG
I purchased Wireless Sensor Network Development Kit – Bunch Version (EV-ADRN-WSN-1Z) from www.analog.com/wsn about a month back to evaluate the other technology. Will I be able to use the same kit to evaluate this AD6LoWPAN solution, Let me know.
Does the new kit come with AD6LoWPAN devices pre-programed and pre-configured? Explain the demo binaries.

Yes. You can use the same EV-ADRN-WSN-1Z kit to evaluate AD6LoWPAN solution also.
As of now, the devices that come along with the EV-ADRN-WSN-1Z kit are pre-programmed and pre-configured with ADRadioNet, Analog Devices proprietary WSN protocol. The same devices can be used to program and setup the AD6LoWPAN evaluation demonstration using ADWSN-UI-Tool. For those who are familiar with ADRadioNet UI tools, the evaluating the AD6LoWPAN software is a cakewalk.
Following are the prebuilt binaries available for AD6LoWPAN demonstration, supplied along with the AD6LoWPAN01_EDKv1.0.
The default configuration for the devices is listed below.

After configuration of the devices, the user can validate the configuration of the devices connected to it, to form a proper network, using 3 Node Demo.
The “AD6LoWPAN-All-in-One-GettingStartedGuide" supplied with the package explains the flashing binaries, 3 Node Demo topology and configuration settings (ISM band, PHY, Channel Frequency et al). This can be applied to the devices using the ADWSN-UI tool, supplied with the package.
This can be downloaded from the download link on Engineer Zone or from www.analog.com/wsn as below . Please note a registration is required to download this package.
