Getting Ready: Connecting the Target to the Host

Depending on the specifics of the prototyping system’s hardware implementation, it is necessary to establish a communications link between the target and the host. This is usually a serial interface such as an RS-232/485 port or an ethernet port.

If you are using the WindRiver® Tornado development environment, run the FTP server as described in the Tornado User’s Guide. Here is the example of the .sh file, which can be used for this purpose:

 
cd %WIND_BASE\host/%WIND_HOST_TYPE%\bin
wftpd32.exe & -- The Windows FTP Daemon running
wtxregd.exe –V -- Tornado registry daemon running
 
 

You should add the name and IP network address of the host and target into the file called hosts, which is located into the \winnt\system32\drivers\etc directory (further details can be found in the Tornado User’s Guide.
