Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM1810, PROFIBUS, ISO1176T

Hi, Team,

from AM1810 product folder http://focus.ti.com/docs/toolsw/folders/print/tmdxevm1810.html, we can find

Features

The AM1810 EVM Kit includes one baseboard, PROFIBUS transceiver board, touch-screen LCD, accessories, and software required to quickly begin development work. The kit contents include:

  • One AM1810 base board
  • One PROFIBUS transceiver board
    • ISO1176T PROFIBUS transceiver
    • PROFIBUS connector
  • Software and Tools
    • Open source Linux Board Support Package with Real-time support
    • U-Boot (boot-loader/monitor)
    • Code Composer Studio (CCS) v4.1
    • Board Support Library (BSL) sample programs
    • Peripheral drivers (web download)
    • PROFIBUS Slave FDL firmware
    • PROFIBUS Slave sample application
    • PROFIBUS Slave Application Layer stack (Evaluation Version)
    • PROFIBUS related software drivers

but I cannot find the "software and Tools" from either TI website or Mistral website.

Where can I get upper software suite for Profibus daughter board on AM1810?

Thanks alot.

  • The software is included in the SD card provided with the EVM. Also, the compiler tools are in the CD/DVD included in the EVM.

    But your subject line seems to indicate that you are looking for BSL for the PROFIBUS transceiver board. Is that correct?

    Thanks.

  • Steve,

    I guess the software and tool section for the kit is refering to the BSL package for AM1810 that should be on the CD that is provided with it`s kit. Let us know if that is what you are looking for. I am not aware of any BSL package for the PROFIBUS transceiver board but we can check with Mistral to see if they provide that.

    Regards,

    Rahul

  • Thanks Maneesh and Rahul,

    I don't have the CD and the package on my hand. and I supposed that the PROFIBUS can be supported in Linux and our demo is based on Linux, right?

    yes, I am finding some demo based on non-OS operation such as BSL.

    Can you give update if we can get this code from Mistral? I checked on Mistral website and no this code available.

    at the same time, can we get the CD content from internet? would you give the link for reference?

    Thanks alot.

  • Yes, demo is in Linux with real-time capabilities and currently, it requires on OS to work. We do not have a non-OS demo at present. 

    Also, PROFIBUS requires both the EVM and the transceiver daughter board... so, for now, please use the AM1810 EVM with the daughterboard.

    Do you have an EVM?

    Thanks.

  • Where can I get the transceiver board's userguide , How should I setup  the transceiver board's address parameter when I use it to check the Profibus trans?
