AR Transmit

AR Transmit

Explanation

About the Sample Application Code

This sample application code, written in C, is provided by North Atlantic Industries (NAI) for utilizing their Embedded Function Modules through their Software Support Kit (SSK). The code demonstrates how to interact with NAI’s ARINC 429 transmitter using FIFO and scheduled transmission modes. Below is a detailed walkthrough of the provided code structure and functionality.

Includes

The code begins with include directives for standard libraries and NAI-specific headers:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include "include/naiapp_boardaccess_menu.h"
#include "include/naiapp_boardaccess_query.h"
#include "include/naiapp_boardaccess_access.h"
#include "include/naiapp_boardaccess_display.h"
#include "include/naiapp_boardaccess_utils.h"
#include "nai_ar_utils.h"
#include "nai.h"
#include "naibrd.h"
#include "functions/naibrd_ar.h"
  • Standard Libraries: Provide basic functions (e.g., I/O operations, memory management).

  • NAI-Specific Headers: Provide functions for accessing and manipulating ARINC hardware and related utilities.

Configuration

static const int8_t *CONFIG_FILE = (int8_t *)"default_ARXmit.txt";

CONFIG_FILE points to a configuration file used for setting up the ARINC transmitter.

Function Prototypes

void Run_AR_Transmit(void);
nai_status_t AR_TxFIFO(int32_t paramCount, int32_t* p_params);
nai_status_t AR_TxSchedule(int32_t paramCount, int32_t* p_params);

These prototypes declare the main functionality of the code: 1. Run_AR_Transmit: Manages ARINC transmit operation. 2. AR_TxFIFO: Handles FIFO mode transmission. 3. AR_TxSchedule: Manages scheduled transmission.

Enumeration and Command Tables

enum arfuncgen_commands {
   AR_FUNCGEN_CMD_TX_FIFO,
   AR_FUNCGEN_CMD_TX_SCHEDULE,
   AR_FUNCGEN_CMD_COUNT
};

This enumeration defines command identifiers for FIFO and scheduled transmission modes.

static naiapp_cmdtbl_params_t AR_FuncGenMenuCmds[] = {
   {"FIFO  ", "AR Transmit FIFO Mode      ", AR_FUNCGEN_CMD_TX_FIFO, AR_TxFIFO},
   {"SCHED ", "AR Transmit Scheduled Mode ", AR_FUNCGEN_CMD_TX_SCHEDULE, AR_TxSchedule}
};

The command table maps command strings to their respective functions.

Global Variables

static int32_t AR_FIFO_Size = 255;
  • AR_FIFO_Size: Defines the size of the FIFO buffer for transmissions.

Main Function

The main function is where the application begins execution:

int32_t main(void)
{
   // Initialization and main loop for ARINC transmission
   bool_t stop = FALSE;
   int8_t inputBuffer[80];
   int32_t inputResponseCnt;

   if (naiapp_RunBoardMenu(CONFIG_FILE) == TRUE) {
      while (stop != TRUE) {
         Run_AR_Transmit();
      }

      printf("\nType Q to quit or Enter key to restart application:\n");
      stop = naiapp_query_ForQuitResponse(sizeof(inputBuffer), NAI_QUIT_CHAR, inputBuffer, &inputResponseCnt);
   }

   naiapp_access_CloseAllOpenCards();

   return 0;
}

This function: 1. Initializes and runs the board menu using the configuration file. 2. Enters a loop to continuously run the ARINC transmit application. 3. Allows quitting or restarting upon user input. 4. Ensures all open cards are closed before exiting.

Detailed Functions

1. Run_AR_Transmit

void Run_AR_Transmit(void)

                     case AR_FUNCGEN_CMD_TX_SCHEDULE:
                        AR_FuncGenMenuCmds[cmd].func(APP_PARAM_COUNT, (int32_t*)ar_transmit_params);
                        break;
                     default:
                        printf("Invalid command entered\n");
                        break;

               bContinue = FALSE;
         }
      }
   }
   return;
}

Functionality: - Prompts the user for ARINC configuration (e.g., card, module, channel, data rate). - Displays a menu for selecting transmission mode. - Configures the ARINC channel and executes the corresponding transmission function.

2. AR_TxFIFO

{
   // Transmits data in FIFO mode
   bool_t bQuit = FALSE;

            naibrd_Wait(1000000);  // Delay to allow FIFO buffer to empty
         }
      }
   }

   check_status(naibrd_AR_SetTxEnable(cardIndex, module, channel, AR_DISABLE));

   return (bQuit) ? NAI_ERROR_UNKNOWN : NAI_SUCCESS;

   check_status(naibrd_AR_SetTxEnable(Card, nMod, nChan, AR_DISABLE));

   return (bQuit) ? NAI_ERROR_UNKNOWN : NAI_SUCCESS;

This sample application demonstrates how to set up and configure the ARINC 429 transmitter, using both FIFO and scheduled transmission modes, with NAI’s hardware. The provided functions utilize specific utility functions and handle configuration querying, user input, and transmission processes. This well-structured code allows users to effectively understand and manipulate ARINC data transmission.

Run_AR_Transmit queries the user for the card, module and channel to configure as the ARINC transmitter
as well as the data rate (high (100KHz) or low (12.5KHz)) and the type of message transmission (FIFO or scheduled).
Methods in the naibrd library are invoked to configure the ARINC channel.
Once the ARINC channel is configured and running, the user can:
1) In FIFO mode, enter the number of words to transmit. Note, the data sent is an incremental value.
