Wiki-spamming is not tolerated, will be removed, so it does NOT even show up in history. Spammers go away now. Visit Preferences to set your user name Summary of change: '''Connecting to GenBoard via a 20000 km serial cable - internet''' Developers connect to other developer's boxes from time to time. Eg. from Canada to a board running in Hungary 8 timezones away. Note that for making a base-tuning (eg. for starting an engine for the first time) one does not need such access to the board, because one can just send the config and tables files as on GenBoard/InitialConfig. I'll try to keep a GenBoard available on network. This ''removes the dependency from real HW'', (soldering iron etc...) for those who want to develop tuning software (maybe at work). If you feel like playing with tuning software, here is the trick (tell here if you'd like it for tuningsoftware development, tried to connect and failed: I'll try better availability than): ''telnet cell.dyndns.ws 32001'' (or 32000) and say ''mcd'' (or ''Manmcd'' if ''m'' spits binary data, maybe someone left menu to compatibility binary 1-letter command more by typing ''bye''. Valid commands are on GenBoard/MenuSystem '''Please exit telnet after you're done with it so you don't lock the line: only one user per serial port at any time, even though the AVR is multiuser''' ( another independent user can use his own menu from the PS2KeyBoard). Since speed is set to 9600, you BootLoader must be used in 9600 (but please, avoid it if possible :-). TODO: * export global.h somewhere (though running recent cvs most of the time) * use some kind of authentication (and maybe stunnel or TLS?) * do we want RAW protocol or telnet * patch the tuning-softwares for TCP/IP access ( already done for OtherTuningSoftware/PSITuner ) * document easy way to try tuning-software connected to real AVR (via network) You are encouraged to hook your GenBoard v2 or v3 to network (remove dangerous parts that can heat intensively: WBO2, sparking equipment, fuel lines :-). Easiest way is to connect to the serial port of a linux box and ''apt-get install ser2net'' package. Less advanced platforms than [http://www.debian.org/ Debian GNU Linux] must also have some not too complex way to set up the same. ---- See also: * RadioBoard for wireless discussion * VemsFrontier/Bluetooth Collecting information for BT communication * CommMatrix for communication protocol interoperability Optional: Add document to category: Wiki formatting: * is Bullet list ** Bullet list subentry ...
