5 | This BSP is for the Technologic Systems TS-1325, an i386EX PC/AT |
---|
6 | compatible SBC equipped with 2 standard serial ports and a parallel |
---|
7 | port suitable for general digital I/O. It comes with 2MB RAM and 1MB |
---|
8 | Flash ROM. Additional information is available at the TS web site: |
---|
9 | http://www.t-systems.com. |
---|
10 | |
---|
11 | The BSP uses software floating-point emulation, so one must build the |
---|
12 | cross-compilation tools with this support. The BSP also supports the |
---|
13 | on-board RTC, and an NE2000 compatible network card. It has been used |
---|
14 | successfully with C/C++ (egcs-1.1.2) and Ada95 (gnat-3.11p), including |
---|
15 | networking applications. |
---|
16 | |
---|
17 | The TS-1325 runs a version of DOS, and should be configured with a RAM |
---|
18 | disk and Zmodem software (see WWW site). RTEMS executables are loaded |
---|
19 | and run in DOS conventional memory, giving a 600K file-size limit. The |
---|
20 | 1MB extended memory is used for the RTEMS workspace, heap, stack and |
---|
21 | BSS. Console output is to COM2 @ 115200 baud, 8-N-1. The high baud |
---|
22 | rate is needed to speed up serial-line Zmodem file transfers. The |
---|
23 | TS-1325 DOS console I/O is by default 9600 baud, and should be changed |
---|
24 | to 115200 baud (see WWW site). |
---|
25 | |
---|
26 | A typical development cycle involves these steps: |
---|
27 | |
---|
28 | 1. Cross-compile the application, yielding an ELF executable. Convert |
---|
29 | this to raw binary format, using objcopy or the elf2exe script (see |
---|
30 | the tools subdirectory in the BSP). |
---|
31 | |
---|
32 | 2. Use Zmodem to download the raw executable to the TS-1325's ram-disk |
---|
33 | (faster than the A: flash disk). A terminal program supporting |
---|
34 | Zmodem is needed on the host e.g. minicom under Linux. |
---|
35 | |
---|
36 | 3. Use the DOS-based RTEMS loader "loader.com" (see tools |
---|
37 | subdirectory) to load and run the executable on the TS-1325. |
---|
38 | |
---|
39 | Additional documentation and support software is in the tools subdirectory |
---|
40 | of the BSP. |

---|
42 | Happy Coding! |
