How to do the PCL-746+ communication test on QNX environment? | |||
---|---|---|---|
Solution:
The steps to use PCL-746 card in QNX as terminal :
Step 1 :
config PCL-746 card as
mode = enahnced mode
base address = 280h
IRQ = 5
Vector address = 2C0
Step 2 :
execute Dev.ser in QNX
# Dev.ser 280,5 288,5 290,5 298,5 &
Note :
1. If QNX has loaded Dev.ser before. User must kill Dev.ser first before execute this command. Because Dev.ser is nonreenterant in QNX.
2. User can use "ps -ef" command to know whether the Dev.ser is loaded in QNX or not?
3. After execute this command. User can see four serial devices in /dev directory :
(/dev/ser1 is for port 1), (/dev/ser2 is for port 2)
(/dev/ser3 is for port 3), (/dev/ser4 is for port 4)
Step 3 :
set PCL-746 card port 1 as terminal :
# tinit -t /dev/ser1 &
When Step 3 is finished. The configuration in QNX is ok. User should prepare another computer or terminal to test this setting. The below steps are how to set a computer as terminal :
S 1 :
In dos system, run a terminal software, for instance, telix.exe)
S 2 :
In terminal software (telix.exe), set settings to COM1,9600,n,8,1.
S 3 :
connect COM1 with PCL-746 card port 1 (as RS-232)
DOS COM1 QNX PCL-746 port 1
2 TX <----------------> RX 3
3 RX <----------------> TX 2
5 CTS <----------------> RTS 4
4 RTS <----------------> CTS 5
20 DTR <----------------> DSR 6
6 DSR <----------------> DTR 20
7 GND <----------------> GND 7
After S 3 is finished. User can login the QNX system in this terminal software (telix.exe) for testing.
