Hi
I am doing a project based on a Tiva C microcontroller. My question, however, is of a more general character - I hope that is okay.
I want to be able to extract data from my Tiva C microcontroller using a serial interface (this could in principle be any kind of interface). To do that, I would like to use somekind of standard / typically used data description which allows me to use standard software (preferable freeware) to extract the data.
I image that the definition would define something like this:
1. A possibility to get a list of objects / data structures which are available on the microcontroller (this would include a reference to the object, the data type of the value and maybe a scaling of the value)
2. By using the references in the list of objects, it would be possible to extract the values of the objects using some standard PC-software.
The data object could be anything from simple integer values to character arrays and structures.
I have been looking around for such a definition, but without luck.
Are any of you familiar with something like this? I would very much like to use something predefine and save the trouble of writing my own definition and PC-software to communicate with the microcontroller. Also, I hope to find something that is rather simple to implement.
I appreciate any help you can provide.
