CHIP Ameba Lighting Example

This example demonstrates the Matter Lighting application on Ameba platform.

Supported Device

The CHIP demo application is supported on Ameba RTL8722DM Board.

Building the Example Application

  • Pull docker image:

      $ docker pull ghcr.io/project-chip/chip-build-ameba:74

  • Run docker container:

      $ docker run -it -v ${CHIP_DIR}:/root/chip ghcr.io/project-chip/chip-build-ameba:74

  • Setup build environment:

      $ source ./scripts/bootstrap.sh

  • To build the demo application:

      $ ./scripts/build/build_examples.py --target ameba-amebad-lighting build

    The output image files are stored in out/ameba-amebad-lighting/asdk/image folder.

    The bootloader image files are stored in out/ameba-amebad-lighting/asdk/bootloader folder.

  • After building the application, Ameba Image Tool is used to flash it to Ameba board.

  1. Connect your device via USB and open Ameba Image Tool.
  2. Select correct serial port and set baudrate as 115200.
  3. Browse and add the corresponding image files in the Flash Download list to the correct locations
  4. Click Download button.

Commissioning

There are two commissioning modes supported by Ameba platform:

BLE mode

  1. Build and Flash
  2. The example will run automatically after booting the Ameba board.
  3. Test with Chip-Tool

IP mode

  1. Build and Flash
  2. The example will run automatically after booting the Ameba board.
  3. Connect to AP using ATW0, ATW1, ATWC commands
  4. Test with Chip-Tool

Cluster Control

After successful commissioning, use the OnOff cluster command to control the OnOff attribute. This allows you to toggle a parameter implemented by the device to be On or Off.

  • Via Chip-Tool

      $ ./chip-tool onoff on ${NODE_ID_TO_ASSIGN} 1
  $ ./chip-tool onoff off ${NODE_ID_TO_ASSIGN} 1
