eZ430

Hey all,

I bought the eZ430 Chronos wrist watch (see: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/EZ430-Chronos). I would like to be able to do something with e.g. the accelaration data. These data are send from the watch to an acces point on my pc (CC1111 USB RF access point ).

As an absolute beginner with Max/MSP, I don't know which object I need to use to get the data from the access point into max. Once this is ok, I think I can do stuff in Max.

Some help with this would be great!!
Do I need an HI-object or do I have to use com-ports? Or something else?

Thanks!!

here is an external that some colleagues of mine wrote. as it says in the helpfile, it's an early version, but I know they have used it successfully. I also have some python code somewhere (from the same people that did the external) if this shouldn't work for you.

Does anyone know if this works on Mac OS? I've been nerding out on these watches a little too much recently, and have been curious if there was an easy way to get it to work in the world of Mac.
