TNT4882 Firmware Examples

We got the TNT4882 dev kit a while back, and I am working on this project now.  I've been through the programming manual, but alot of details feel like they are missing.  As far as I can tell I don't see any firmware examples.  Is there any existing examples of firmware code for interfacing to an MCU inside the device?  It would be helpful just to see how some of the protocols, command processing, and I/O with the TNT4882 is generally setup.  SHould I be looking for examples of 7210 code out in the public domain?

 

Chris.

Hey Chris5534,

If I understand your questions correctly, I think that the following documentation GPIB Register-Level Programming should help. Thanks again and have a great day!

Hello Chris,

There is also a source code package that shows how to communicate with the TNT 4882. Thanks again and have a nice day!

Thanks.  I had already looked over the ESP-488 code, but that seemed very out of date and not exactly for embedded device/instrument applications.  But that now appears to be all there is.  I am now in the process of rewriteing that to run on an ARM MCU without all the calls to DOS lbraries, console I/O, no ISA slot functions, etc. It's a bit of a task, but better than writing and learning the GPIB behaviors from scratch.
