Hi All - Does anybody happen to have an electronic version of the old Tern software development manuals? My company purchased (several years ago) the...
I'm using the ACore86 and looking at the step 2 instructions for downloading my firmware but I don't seem to have to L29_F400.HEX file you reference. Do you...
Does anyone has done some code using the libraries provided by cogwheel? I need to receive, treat and send data using the udp protocol, but I donīt know how...
I purchased a 586 Engine Eval Kit recently for the sole purpose of running some complicated code involving transcendental functions on the math coprocessor. My...
Gustavo, I've just quickly finished up a new sample project, intended to make using the UDP libraries from Cogwheel a little easier. It basically acts as a...
I'd suggest you start with one of the test projects. I believe it's located in either \tern\586\test.ide, or perhaps \tern\586\fptest.ide. Run the sample...
I have already tried the fptest.c code, and substituted it for led.c in the led.ide project. It would compile, but fail to link. I then added the bcppfp.lib to...
Lance, I misspoke originally. You *should* most definitely have the project: \tern\586\test.ide Inside this project, there is a target for 'fptest.axe'. You ...
I need a baud rate of 1Mbps for an application. RS-485 can support this data rate in theory, but does 586 Engine or any other controller support this rate? ...
Mr. Amhad, SER1 on the 586-Engine can support a baud rate of up to 1,152,000 bps, at TTL level. The A-Engine-86-D is an option you might be interested in....
Using fptest.axe as a model, I was able to compile, link, download and run my code! Thanks, Lance ... From: TERN (Chon) [mailto:chon@...] Sent: Friday,...
I'm having a couple of problems with the flashcore boards 1. The routine fs_initPCFlash doesn't appear to return when called without a compact flashcard...
Douglas. I hava a some trouble like this, may be you can check the mma directory for the Memcard board using the mm functions like status() and ready()...
Still having problems with the FlashCore reseting on insertion of a flashcard. Powering the card from 12V bench supply it draws 220mA @ 12V. After insertion it...
Douglas. I have made some test with the Flashcore at 9V at 500mA and works fine, later on 12V at 1000 mA is the same, but some times my program hang during 12V...
Douglas, The board's resetting not because of the extra current kick. The CompactFlash card's data-bus goes directly onto the board-wide bus, and will always...
I'm using the FC-40 board as a data logger and process monitor. Right now I'm developing the monitor portion of the code. When doing so I use large 2000 point...
Brian, The 'DGROUP' is the default memory segment (max 64 KB) which the compiler tosses global/static variables. If you have more than 64 KB of global data,...
I am using the Tern A-Engine-P with Paradigm. Is it possible to use the large memory model in the debug mode? Can you please let me know the memory map of...
Suba, Yes, working with the large memory model under DEBUG works as normal. To run under large memory model, all you need to do is change the libraries to...
Hi All, Just a question, has anyone used the sprinf function? Someone must have ... is there something I'm doing wrong? It seem to cause the board to hang when...
I think I fixed the memory error and all the code compiles. However, in the ":Transferring to C:\Paradigm\bin\plink.exe @C:\Tern\186 \DYNAMI~1.R$P" stage, I...
Brian, You're right, these 'undefined symbols' are definitely due to ae.lib and filesys.lib not being linked into the code correctly. At the beginning of the...
Thanks for the prompt reply. I've tried it with the new emu.lib, but the sprintf didn't work, so I've removed the floating point operations. I've checked...
Hi all, I have been poring over tern's website and documentaion for over a week but still have some questions left. a) I need a controller which has a minimum...
Hi, I am not clear about the maximum size of the Compact Flash that could be used in Flash Core (FC). In one document it says, Compact Flash (CF) upto 100 MB...
Greg, Ah, I should've clarified first. Which DEBUG ROM are you using? (... which determines whether the 8-bit or 16-bit SRAM is being used as the destination...
Thomas, Thanks for your interest. ... If the inputs/outputs (6/12) that you mentioned are just straight TTL-level, low-current channels, then essentially any...
Fraz, There's no real fundamental "design" limit within our boards for maximum capacity in these cards. The truth is these numbers change as we get new samples...
