AN-6130PCIe
Holt HI-6130 PCIe API Demo using Holt's high-level API library.
The HI-6130 PCie API demo program demonstrates Holt's high-level API software library. The demo
consists of menu commands prompted on the console for demonstrating the BC, RT1, RT2, SMT and
IMT.
Copy the zipped project folder from the CD-ROM to the desktop and unzip the folder there. Copy the
unzipped project folder to the PLX SDK samples folder: Plx\PlxSdk\Samples. The _HI-6130 PCIe API demo
will typically have a version number at the end of the folder name to indicated program revision.
The folders should appear like the following screen shot. The Holt demo project folders are added in the
PLX Samples folder. Many of the PLX API examples used in Dslave and LocalToPciInt were used in the
Holt projects. It's a good idea to review these two projects when first becoming familiar with the PLX
API's. These PLX projects do not run on the Holt PCIe card because the LB memory spaces are defined
differently.
Plx\PlxSdk\Samples folder
Launch the program by either double-clicking the executable application "PCIeHolt" contained in the
Visual Studio project "Release" sub folder or launch Visual Studio and open the project to run the
program in debug mode. To run the project in debug mode make sure the debug configuration is
selected at the top. Sometimes it may be necessary to perform a project clean by selecting "Clean
PCIe6130Holt" from the BUILD pull down menu. After rebuilding the project, some warnings may appear
in the Output window which can be ignored but there should be no critical errors preventing the
debugger from running the project.
A menu will be displayed showing sets of numbers 1 though x. The Holt card typically appears as the first
item, #1 with "9056 10b5" [b:xx s:xx f:xx]. Enter "1" and press Enter.
