scons board=openmote-b project=experiment-tx compiler=gcc verbose=0

If you want to write the .hex file in the openmote-b run the following command:

scons board=openmote-b project=experiment-tx compiler=gcc verbose=0 bootload=/dev/ttyUSB1

On bootload device you can pass a list, a range or a wildcard character.

list  -> /dev/ttyUSB0,ttyUSB1,/dev/ttyUSB2
range -> /dev/ttyUSB[0-2] = /dev/ttyUSB0,ttyUSB1,/dev/ttyUSB2
all   -> /dev/ttyUSBX = /dev/ttyUSB0,ttyUSB1,/dev/ttyUSB2

To erase the build files run the command with -c flag

scons board=openmote-b project=experiment-tx compiler=gcc verbose=0 -c
