New January 12, 2001 - Tutorials are moving |
All the tutorials are
now at http://www.systronix.com/tutor/top.htm (These old pages will be left for a while until all the new tutorials are complete) |
This is a Quick Start area. Much of this tutorial (setting up and configuring your TINI hardware) has nothing to do with JBuilder and applies no matter what Java tool set you are using. It is intended to help you get TINI up and running to the point where you can communicate with it via RS-232, ftp and telnet. The JBuilder and TiniTools areas do relate mainly to those products (which are available for free). There is also some troubleshooting information, and even a step by step process to follow in restoring a completely erased TINI. This is a work in progress and will be refined over the next few weeks. We welcome your feedback. |
Background, purpose, requirements | Who is your tutor? What you need in terms of a PC and software. Too much editorializing from your tutor. |
Out of the box | You just received your TINI and sockets board. Now what? |
My TINI Java Tool Set Installing and configuring JBuilder 3.5 Installing the COMM API and running JavaKit Using the TINI loader to install TINI's firmware Configuring TINI's ethernet connection |
Here's everything you need for programming and using TINI. Why I use JBuilder. Read this first before you go searching for the JDK at Sun - it will save you some time and confusion. Loading TINI's flash memory with the basic firmware: the JVM and command shell. Booting up TINI for the first time. Running the command shell, setting up TINI's IP parameters. Pinging TINI. Communicating with telnet and ftp. File structures, java docs, jar files, etc |
Temporarily,
all the above topics which are not links are crudely lumped together
in a text file here. Soon the above topics will be converted to the deluxe HTML version. The topics below have been converted: |

The TiniTools plug-in for JBuilder makes programming TINI a lot more enjoyable. |
