TCP/IP Remote Console/Disk

Because the above serial remote console/disk tool was specifically developed for DOS-based

host PC's, the NETIPC is delivered with another remote console/disk tool useful for all modern

host PC operating systems offering TCP/IP support and FTP and TELNET clients.

This tool consists of a FTP and TELNET server (named TNFTP) running on any DOS

compatible operating system on the NETIPC target. It may be configured for Ethernet

connection (through an external Packet Driver) or for serial connection (through built in SLIP

support). A DOS command batch file (RCONSOLE.BAT) helps to keep the startup easy and

may be customized (interrupts, packet driver, IP address, COM port, baud rate etc).

Details on host setup and target configuration may be found in the acompagning user

documentation (see x:\FBCUBE\NETIPCFW\RCONSOLE\ directory).

Note: The BIOS console redirection over COM port must be disabled in order to use the

TCP/IP remote console with SLIP.

6.3.

Because of the highly PC-AT compatible design of the NETIPC board most standard PC high-

level language compilers can be directly used to generate applications programs for the

NETIPC. Note that some of the development tools depend on the target operating system.

Sample programming examples are distributed in source code form on the diskette IOCOMSW

(containing program examples written for the DOS operating system, BORLAND-C++

compiler and BORLAND Turbo-Assembler).

6.4.

Remote Target Source-Level Debugging is a very helpful and time-saving feature for

applications software development. Several standard PC language compilers (e.g. BORLAND

C++) include such a remote source level debugger which may be operated via a serial link

(COM-port) between the target and the host-PC. Some of them even work over a network

connection (e.g. Ethernet-TCP/IP). Please consult the documentation accompanying your

language compiler for detailled information about features and installation/operating

procedures of the remote source level debugging tools.
