The operating platform will be an SGI 2200 running IRIX 6.5, communicating via the PXI-6533 to locally developed hardware. The 2-way communications path will be:
SGI 2200 (IRIX 6.5) <-> SBS DataBlizzard (in PCI cardcage) <-> fiber optic cable <-> SBS DataBlizzard (in remote PCI rack) <-> PXI-6533 <-> local hardware
I have a C language software library from SBS that has helped my application program (on IRIX) to "see" the PCI rack at the remote end.
The NI reference information I have seen refers the user to several different example programs that were written for Linux. The Linux example programs obtain the needed parameters (BAR0, BAR1, etc.) from a file on the Linux operating system. This file doe
s not exist on IRIX systems. And of course, the target PXI-6533 does not actually reside on the computer my application software is working on.
Any one have any idea how to set this up?
Any suggestions appreciated!
Mike
